Right-to-Left Support

Select Continents

RadMultiSelect provides support for right-to-left presentation.

RadMultiSelect considers the direction attribute set to the control itself or any parent HTML element. If you set the direction of the body tag (or any other parent element that contains the control) to rtl, RadMultiSelect reverses the position of the button and aligns the text to the right side of the container.
