NumberField with currency in RTL

[rothsandro]

Hi,

Does the NumberField component with currency format (formatOptions={{ style: "currency" }}) properly support RTL locales like Arabic? I tested a few cases and I'm not really sure if the behavior is correct.

The position of CHF depends on whether the value is negative ore positive. And "$US" is even split into two parts for negative values.

We do not do any formatting ourselves, it's all just what the browser API does. So theoretically as long as the browser implemented it correctly from the ICU standards, it is correct.

I don't know but "$‎-100.00 US" doesn't look right to me 😆

Haha, then we should lodge a bug against the standard :)
