MenuBar Right to Left

Abdulrahman

Hello,
I want to make the app flow from right to left , I changed layout direction in the main.py to be right to left, but it doesn't make the flow

code for main.py

# This Python file uses the following encoding: utf-8
import sys
import os

from PySide2.QtGui import QGuiApplication
from PySide2.QtQml import QQmlApplicationEngine
from PySide2 import QtCore


if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = QGuiApplication(sys.argv)
    app.setLayoutDirection(QtCore.Qt.RightToLeft) #Change right to left
    engine = QQmlApplicationEngine()
    engine.load(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "main.qml"))

    if not engine.rootObjects():
        sys.exit(-1)
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

code for main.qml

import QtQuick 2.12
import QtQuick.Controls 2.12
import QtQuick.Dialogs 1.2

ApplicationWindow{
    width: 1200
    height: 480
    visible: true
    background: Rectangle{
        color: 'white'
    }
    menuBar: MenuBar{
       Menu{
           title: qsTr("First Menu")
       }
       Menu{
           title: qsTr("Second Menu")
       }
      Menu{
           title: qsTr("Third Menu")
       }
    }
}

MenuBar uses a Row; this is implemented via layout mirroring, see https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qml-qtquick-layoutmirroring.html#details .

For example:

LayoutMirroring.enabled: Qt.application.layoutDirection === Qt.RightToLeft
LayoutMirroring.childrenInherit: true
