The LayoutDirection class defines the constant values for the layoutDirection style of an IStyleClient and the layoutDirection property of an ILayoutDirectionElement. Left-to-right layoutDirection is typically used with Latin-style scripts. Right-to-left layoutDirection is used with scripts such as Arabic or Hebrew. If an IStyleClient, set the layoutDirection style to undefined to inherit the layoutDirection from its ancestor. If an ILayoutDirectionElement, set the layoutDirection property to null to inherit the layoutDirection from its ancestor.
