Right-to-left alignment of PyQt4 menus

I use PyQt4 for designing GUI.

I want to know is there a way to sort menu items from right to left instead left to right for languages such as Arabic or Persian?

You have to use the setLayoutDirection() method of QApplicacion to indicate the Qt.RightToLeft address as shown below:

class menudemo(QMainWindow):
   def __init__(self, parent = None):
      super(menudemo, self).__init__(parent)

      layout = QHBoxLayout()
      bar = self.menuBar()
      file = bar.addMenu("ملف")
      file.addAction("الجديد")

      save = QAction("حفظ",self)
      file.addAction(save)

      edit = file.addMenu("تصحيح")
      edit.addAction("نسخ")
      edit.addAction("معجون")

      quit = QAction("استقال",self) 
      file.addAction(quit)
      file.triggered[QAction].connect(self.processtrigger)
      self.setLayout(layout)
      self.setWindowTitle("RTL")

   def processtrigger(self,q):
      print(q.text()+" is triggered")

if __name__ == '__main__':
   app = QApplication(sys.argv)
   app.setLayoutDirection(Qt.RightToLeft)
   ex = menudemo()
   ex.show()
   sys.exit(app.exec_())
