Layout Direction bug after split-screen mode

[TurKurT656]

I've set the locale with this code:
Lingver.getInstance().setLocale(requireContext(), "fa")
It use RTL layout direction. Everything works great, but when I use the app in split screen mode and then maximize it again layout direction resets to LTR (but it uses farsi strings).

How can I fix the issue?

I'd highly appreciate it if you could create a small sample project reproducing the issue. Otherwise, it's hard to find out the cause of the issue without looking into details of your implementation.

Thanks in advance!

I've created a sample repo for this:

I have the same issue too.

@YarikSOffice did you see the sample?

I have the same issue when app goes landscape. The layout direction changed to system setting after changing direction.
The activity config in manifest is android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"

UpdateLocaleDelegate class doesn't have this :
config.setLayoutDirection(targetLocale), so just put it to fun updateResources

@Kolyall I don't think I'd help since config.setLayoutDirection is being invoked automatically within config.setLocale/setLocales call.

I've given it a few tries, but haven't found a solution yet. Marking the bug as a known issue for now.

Because it's happening with the deep link too

I haven't found any solution yet.

If you provide a sample project, I can check whether your issue is related to this bug.
