The problem is still in Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: b2d8093b19642038631dfb8f1ab6745a380a652c CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; TinderBox: Win-x86_64@42, Branch:master, Time: 2019-09-23_22:42:37 Locale: de-DE (en_US); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded There exists only "from left" to set a distance for the position. Therefore I think, that it is correct to use "from left" in the meaning of "in writing direction". We might discuss, whether other wording than "left" and "right" should be used. I see a documentation issue: The help for 'text direction' for the page layout has the text "The "right-to-left (vertical)" text flow direction rotates all layout settings to the right by 90 degrees, except for the header and footer." But the help of the Position&Size dialog does not mention, that the layout is depending on text direction and will automatically change, when the text direction is changed.
