      I think you’re working on InDesign ME. Go to the Paragraph Panel and you’ll see two Text direction icons, click on the the Left-to-Right button.

      Hope that helps.

      It’s also possible to change the direction of individual characters, for example if those characters are “bi-lingual” like punctuation or numbers or even spaces.
      With mixed text (for example Arabic with some English words), InDesign may sometimes make the wrong choice for punctuation direction.
      Phone numbers are one interesting example, where the numbers may include spaces or hyphens or + signs, and you may need to apply a single direction to the whole phone number.
