EXTJS 4 RTL - When

[edspencer]

Is there an update to this estimate, now that RTL/ARIA have been bumped to 4.2 instead of 4.1?

We have been eagerly awaiting RTL support, which was originally promised for 4.0, then 4.1, and now 4.2. Our customers are pressuring us for dates, and we could really use some idea of when we can expect this functionality.

I expect a beta of 4.2 before the end of the year. RTL and ARIA support are already well underway in the codebase, the 4.1/4.2 split is purely so that we can get the performance improvements out to people sooner.

So the RTL beta will not be available at SenchaCon but instead pushed 2 more months till end of year?

This is a major issue for our current and prospective customers.

The RTL functionality is actually pretty far advanced already. If you would be interested in an earlier private alpha I think we could set that up.

We'd certainly be interested in an alpha preview.

Can you drop me a PM with your contact details (name, company, contact email address)

My company is also interested in an alpha preview, can I send you our contact details?

Any update on this? Haven't heard anything about the alpha or the 4.2 release date in months.

We're still working to get 4.1 from beta to general release, we're updating folks on 4.1 progress on the 4.1 update thread. 4.2 is queued up behind that. Rather than estimating a release date, we're just showing you our progress as we cut down the bug count and get 4.1 ready.

About 5-6 months ago, just before 4.0 was released, we purchased Ext js 4 on the promises that RTL will be part of this release.
We keep getting notices that RTL support is pushed back to future releases.
We are in a decision point where we evaluating other product like Touch 2 and the Architect but on the other hand RTL is a show stopper for us.
We need to have a final date for RTL support in order to decide if we continue with Sencha.

I don't think they ever said anything about RTL in sencha touch. As far as I know the RTL support is limited to ExtJS, and won't make it into ST.
