Mirror text in the rich text control

[1kamma]

hello. when I use richtextctrl, the text is mirrored, in English and hebrew.
when I use textctrl however, everything is just fine.
I checked if the problem is just in my code, or it is in every wxpython code, (like wxFormBuilder), and the problem is global with this specific widget

Windows 10 2004
wxPython 4.1.0 & pip 20.1.1
python 3.8.3

Description of the problem:

class main_panel(wx.Panel):
    def __init__(self, parent):
        super().__init__(parent)
        # self.Sizer = wx.BoxSizer()
        self.Font = wx.Font( 16, wx.FONTFAMILY_DEFAULT, wx.FONTSTYLE_NORMAL, wx.FONTWEIGHT_NORMAL, False, "SBL BibLit" )
        self.text = rch.RichTextCtrl(self)
        # self.text.Bind(wx.EVT_LEFT_DOWN,self.pr)
        self.text.SetFont(self.Font)

        # self.tex
        self.Sizer = wx.GridSizer(1 , 0 , 0)
        self.Sizer.Add(self.text, flag = wx.EXPAND | wx.SIZE_AUTO)
        # self.text.Size = wx.Size(1800,60)
        # self.text.Size = wx.Size(800,600)
        # self.text.SetFont(self.Font)
        # self.Sizer.Add(self.text, flag = 1 | wx.EXPAND |wx.SIZE_AUTO|wx.SIZE_AUTO_WIDTH)

Hi, can you please provide a complete runnable example code that demonstrates the problem?

Is there anything particular I need to do in order to cause the problem to occur using the sample? I don't think that I'm seeing the problem (yet?):

[1kamma]

In my computer (which is in windows 10 2004 in Hebrew) the problem occurs. I don't know why in ubuntu is not
I also checked in w10 1803, and it still mirrors the text

[swt2c]

So your system language is set to Hebrew?

[1kamma]

yes
