# Support of Right-to-Left Languages

Natural for Ajax supports right-to-left languages and bidirectional text without specific actions taken by the application. The browser displays and accepts bidirectional text always in the expected order.

Applications can use the same page layouts both in left-to-right and in right-to-left screen direction. To switch the screen direction, the statement `SET CONTROL` is used as follows:

Statement | Description
--- | ---
`SET CONTROL 'VON'` | Sets the screen direction to right-to-left.
`SET CONTROL 'VOFF'` | Sets the screen direction to left-to-right.
`SET CONTROL 'V'` | Switches from left-to-right to right-to-left screen direction and vice versa.
