[Libreoffice] Remember the RTL interface

[Matteo Casalin]

Hi all,
   just a quick reply until I can sit in front of my own pc. As 
Michael said, I'm (slowly) cleaning up decoview, and I can see two 
points related to this issue:
1) Wrong direction of arrow: actually, the arrow depicted in Lior's 
screenshot does not seem to be drawn by decoview's (there's no such a 
kind of arrow implemented). I currently don't know where this issue 
should be properly addressed, but I suspect it's an higher-level than 
decoview itself, which cannot decide what the arrow is needed for and 
so if it needs to be reversed.
2) Mirroring of checkmarks: in decoview there's a strange bug-related 
comment which says roughly "don't mirror checkmarks in RTL", following
by code that actually mirrors them. My questions are then: should they
be mirrored or not, and what does really appear on an RTL environment?

I don't know if I have the knowledge to address point 1 (I'm just a 
beginner in LO codebase, maybe some directions could help), while 
point 2 could also be something that need to be addressed.

related to point 1, I suspect (no proof by now) that some of decoview 
routine are not called in favor of some themes or platform dependent 
ones. This could also be considered for example for argumenting on 
point 2.

Hope to provide more details/feedbacks later.
Thanks
Matteo
