Change Pivot View Layout to Right-to-Left

Question

Dear Experts, I am currently working on creating a pivot view report in Arabic and since the Arabic text is written right-to-left, I need to have my pivot view's row measure labels to start from the right instead of the default left. I have tried enclosing the pivot view between two narrative views, with HTML markup checked, as follows:- 1- Narrative1

2- Pivot 3- Narrative 2

I have tried this within answers and also the dashboard, however, it didn't work. Has anyone out there had any experience doing this. I could not find any resource on this either. Would really appreciate your help. I am working on OBIEE 11.1.1.7.1. Thanks, Saied

Hi Gianni,

Thank you for your response.

Yes, I just need to move the rows to the right. The text in Arabic and is rendering well.

I will try to work on your suggestion and see if it does the trick.

Cheers!

Hi, So you want to move all the values of the "Rows" area of the pivot to the right of the pivot itself? (it's not just about text being written right-left, right?) If you want to do that you will not find an easy solution, it would require HTML reworking on the pivot, moving the tags around (from the beginning to the end of the block) for each rows. You can probably write a function/method in jQuery or any other javascript library making DOM manipulation easy to do that kind of things.
