The Tablix.LayoutDirection element specifies the layout direction of Tablix columns. This element is optional and MUST NOT be specified more than once. If this element is specified, its value MUST be a String ([XMLSCHEMA2/2] section 3.2.1), which MUST be one of the following:

LTR: Tablix columns are laid out in sequence, starting at the left and progressing to the right.<8>

RTL: Tablix columns are laid out in sequence, starting at the right and progressing to the left.

If the Tablix.LayoutDirection element is not specified, its value is interpreted as "LTR" regardless of whether the implementation is executed on a left-to-right or right-to-left operating system.

Note The value of the Tablix.LayoutDirection element changes the effect that the value of the Tablix.GroupsBeforeRowHeaders element has. This is described under Tablix.GroupsBeforeRowHeaders.
