ooodev.format.inner.direct.draw.shape.para.alignment.text_direction module

This module does not currently work. It is not clear what property needs to be set to change the writing mode.

The shape has a property called TextWritingMode. But changing it does not seem to have any effect. There is also a property called WritingMode. But also changing it does not seem to have any effect. When a shapes changes the writing mode via the dialog it seems to change the shape.Start.WritingMode property; however it seems not possible to set this property manually.
