This regression might have been introduced by http://monaco.sfbay/detail.jsf?cr=6595322 bug fix. This bug can be reproduced in solaris , linux & windows.

EVALUATION I've done a bit of a mockup of this approach (flipping painting code). It mostly works, but is not the complete solution. It looks like Synth/Basic isn't flipping the insets as well. I know there are a whole raft of RTL bugs in Basic, Synth, and in Nimbus. I'm looking into a more correct fix for RTL. Also, while this may technically be a regression because it "was working" and now "isn't", if it was ever working, it was a fluke. It really was never working correctly. So I'm going to remove the word "regression" from the subject, to more accurately reflect the state of the bug.

EVALUATION We need add a property to flip the graphics for RTL for the complete combo in non-editable state and for the button and textfield graphics in editable state.
