I've added an RTL column to the Captions component (turn it over and check the "RTL visible" option) that allows you to change the RTL per-caption

Currently the captions don't store that RTL flag though, so they won't remember it at load (the Captions component saves a global RTL flag and shows all as either LTR or RTL now - In the future it will save/load rtl flag per caption entry)
 
When load/save of per-caption RTL flag will have been implemented, I'll probably make the RTL button on the captions component toolbar when switching to RTL mode (which toggles each caption entry to RTL) to also set the RTL visible to true when pressed, that is make the RTL column appear.

The RTL button on the toolbar is also useful a shortcut for quickly switching all captions to RTL or back.

Hi Lucia, I just added storage of Comments and RTL (per caption) values, so now you can show the RTL column (using "RTL visible" at the back of captions component) and select to show some captions in LTR and some in RTL using the respective checkbox. When you save/reload it will now remember it

Note that there is a bug that forces you to use different [StartTime,EndTime] pair for each caption that has RTL=true or non-empty Comments value. Same bug exists with captions that have Audio (revoicing). Will try to fix it (it is a design issue of the way I store the Audio and the caption extradata [comments, RTL flag] per Caption in the .clipflair file)

Just added: when RTL button is pressed on Captions component toolbar, the RTL column appears if it was hidden, as is the default

the RTL column is the one that shows RTL checkbox per caption row (can also show it using the back panel of the component and select "RTL column visible").

Note that the RTL button on the toolbar toggles RTL flag for all caption rows on or off when it is pressed multiple times
