Feature description

My suggestion is to add a feature that allows for right-to-left legend column rendering or even a general right-to-left option that automatically aligns symbols and titles to the right and renders columns from right to left.

Additional context

I am currently working on a mapping project in a right-to-left language and am utilizing horizontal legends with multiple columns in my layout. I have already set the title of my legend elements to the right, but it appears that there is no option to set the alignment of the columns themselves - the first column remains fixed to the left.

I am interested in some right-to-left features to be included in Qgis, my question is how to fund feature like this to be added as soon as possible?

Proposed enhancement:

  • In the legend columns settings, add a "column order" setting where users can choose from "left-to-right" or "right-to-left"

Currently the alignment of columns is left to right. For those languages that work right to left, this requires the manual placement separation of columns to place them.
In this image, automated placement is shown on the bottom left and manual ideal placement on the bottom right.

Enable the alignment of columns from right to left by adding in an additional control in the legend Columns section.

It looks like a nice hack but time-consuming process, we hope our amazing developers will make it easy like they did for fonts and text formatting.
