Hi,
In recent Mavericks and Yosemite, the Installer layout for Arabic
(possibly all right-to-left languages) changed... the column showing
Installer stages is now on the right hand side (which seems more
appropriate in right-to-left languages) while it used to be on the left
side like left-to-right languages.
However this causes problems for a background image containing a logo...
previously I aligned the background to 'bottom left', so that the
installer resized nicely with the logo placed in the bottom left corner.
Now in 10.9/10.10 I need to align it to bottom right, but only for
right-to-left languages, and only for 10.9/10.10. Otherwise it is
covered by other elements and not placed properly.
I'm trying to figure out whether I can write some JavaScript code to put
in distribution.dist to do this but I'm stuck. I tried localizing the
parameter, and I can pick it up with system.localizedString(...) as
evidenced by log output, but I'm not sure how to put it into the
'alignment' parameter of the 'background' tag. I'd like to have
something like document.write(...) (commonly used in web development) in
order to construct the 'background' tag dynamically with JavaScript, but
that doesn't appear to be available...?
Does anybody have a nice solution for this problem?
Best regards,
- Erik
