<td><p>The layout direction of your application. {@code ldrtl} means "layout-direction-right-to-left".
{@code ldltr} means "layout-direction-left-to-right" and is the default implicit value.
</p>
<p>This can apply to any resource like layouts or values or drawables.
</p>
<p>For example, if you want to provide some specific layout for the Arabic language and some
generic layout for any other "right-to-left" language (like Persian or Hebrew) then you would have:
</p>
<pre class="classic no-pretty-print">
res/
layout/ <span style="color:black">
main.xml </span>(This is the default layout)
layout-ar/ <span style="color:black">
main.xml </span>(This is the specific layout for Arabic)
layout-ldrtl/ <span style="color:black">
main.xml </span>(This applies to any "right-to-left" language, except for Arabic, because the ar language qualifier has a higher precedence.)
</pre>
