Syntax

public sealed class TextFlow : Enum

TextFlow reports the reading direction OCR detected for a piece of recognized text, read from the TextDirection property of any result element. LeftToRight is the common case for languages such as English, RightToLeft covers scripts such as Arabic, and TopToBottom marks the vertical flow found in some East Asian writing. Check TextDirection when layout or ordering depends on the script, rather than assuming left-to-right. The reading results how-to reads element properties, and international languages shows OCR across scripts.

if (word.TextDirection == OcrResult.TextFlow.RightToLeft) { /* handle RTL */ }
