Any thoughts?

Hi,

Since you are setting that menu to openstyle"rtl"; when you set the subimage as right it switches it to left. Many use that openstyle="rtl"; as an opening mechanism for the submenu so it opens on the left side of the main menu, and it works OK, but in reality it is designed for setting up menu with languages that go rtl. So, in reality it thinks the subimage which is by default placed on the right should be on the left in that openstyle.

OK, after that long winded explanation.... what you need to do is set the subimage for that item to subimageposition=left; then the openstyle will see that and switch it to the right

I hope that made sense

thansk Ruth, but sorry.. I don't understand what you are saying to do.

I've tried setting the submimageposition to both left and right with no result.

ack!

Hi,

You are coding the change in the subimageposition in the wrong place. It is not a 'menu' property, it is either a style or an item property. So, since it isn't a property of the menu, putting it there does nothing and the openstyle="rtl"; causes the default right position of the subimage to shift to the left.
