Hi, I was just curious if anyone knows whether Arabic modules should swipe in 'reverse'?
The modern player allows right-to-left reading, allows table of contents on the right, has forward/back buttons reversed and positioned on the left side of the screen, but I don't see an option in the player that would change that direction of swiping.
Thanks, but those are only toggles for enabling/disabling swiping, it doesn't let you choose the swiping direction to accommodate right-to-left languages.
Currently, setting the player navigation to right-to-left won't update the swipe/gestures of the Prev and Next buttons.
We're tracking feature requests for this capability, so I'll share your voice with the team and let you know of any changes. Thank you for contributing!

Hi Martin,
You can adjust the Slide navigation and gestures in Slide Properties.
You can also refer to these online documents to know more about mobile swipe gestures.

Hello there!
Is there any update on this?
Our users find it confusing that they have to swipe left to go next, while the Arabic course's orientation is right to left.
