How to fix right-aligned text setting in VS2008's Properties Window?

While working in the Properties Window today in Visual Studio 2008, I somehow managed to hit a keyboard shortcut that changed the text alignment from left-aligned to right-aligned. Note that I am not asking how to set the right-to-left property of a control. I am talking about the Properties Window itself in Visual Studio 2008. I tried looking for this setting in Visual Studio but I could not find it.

Properties Window right-to-left

How can I fix this so that the Properties Window shows the Property values left-aligned again?

Edit

If it helps any, the entering of text into the Property Window now seems to follow a right-to-left nature. For example, entering an underscore into a value places the underscore to the left of the text, even though the cursor is on the right-side of the text. This causes "foo" + "_" to become "_foo" and not "foo_"

When you have a value for a property selected, right click and deselect the "Right to left Reading order" option in the context menu provided.
