Description
Determines whether a ToolbarMenu (and any sub menus it contains) when displayed using the IToolbarMenu::PopupMenu method displays in a position aligned to the left of the users mouse click. This property is true by default.
If the ToolbarMenu has also been added to the ToolbarControl, the ToolbarControl will override the AlignLeft property with the IToolbarControl2::AlignLeft property, before the ToolbarMenu is displayed with the IToolbarMenu::PopupMenu method.
Remarks
If a ToolbarMenu is to popup in a position so close to edge of a screen display, that it will not be fully visible, the AlignLeft property will be ignored. The ToolbarMenu will popup aligned in a direction that will ensure it is fully visible.
AlignLeft does not affect the alignment of an ICommand::Caption or an IToolbarMenu::Caption displayed on a ToolbarItem. In order to change the direction text is displayed the RTL (right to left) display environment variable needs changing. The AlignLeft property will override any RTL (right to left) display environment variables that affect the position of drop down menus.
