This enumeration is used by various controls to align visual components either to the left or the right of the main body of the control (e.g., the DateTimePicker , or the ComboBox ). Note that while the values of the enumeration are Left and Right , the RightToLeft status of the control comes into play, so Left would actually appear on the right if RightToLeft is set to Yes . public enum LeftRightAlignment { Left = 0 , Right = 1 } HierarchySystem.Object System.ValueType System.Enum(System.IComparabl, System.IFormattable , System.IConvertible) LeftRightAlignment Returned ByControl.RtlTranslateLeftRight() , DateTimePicker.DropDownAlign , UpDownBase.UpDownAlign Passed ToControl.{RtlTranslateAlignment() , RtlTranslateLeftRight()} , DateTimePicker.DropDownAlign , UpDownBase.UpDownAlign |
