And though the dupe is similar, here you want to force the userName string to follow RTL rules (appearing at the right as the start of the string). Following [this answer](https://stackoverflow.com/a/39147040/327083) you would substitute `LTR_EMBED = '\u202A'` for `RTL_EMBED = '\u202B'` and pad the `userName` string as in the example. — J..., May 27 '19 at 19:43
@J... Thank you so much for your effort . i followed your post and worked! but i still have one problem that my string now looks "\u202bيحب الورد Tomu\202c". I tried to remove \u202b and u\202c but didn't work — SomeOne, May 27 '19 at 21:02
What do you mean when you say your string "looks like" that - are you looking at it in the debugger? The debugger will show the unicode formatting characters but they should not be displayed when rendered in an application or in any controls. — J..., May 27 '19 at 21:09
My project is Web API and the string shows like above in postman — SomeOne, May 27 '19 at 21:11
