An afterthought. My first gut reaction to this was, I remember I had this problem some five or six years ago. Why don't "they" just change it from left to right once and for all?!
Then I remembered: RTL (did not take me long: some of the Moodle sites I deal with are in Hebrew).
Then I thought of something more balanced: can we add another field to the quiz settings - right after the time limit field? It should be a time position selector: right or left. How hard can it really be?!
Alternatively, timer position can be made language-dependent: on the right for LTR languages, and on the left for RTL ones. This should fit 99.9% of the situations.
Any takers?
Lev "timer position can be made language-dependent: on the right for LTR languages, and on the left for RTL ones. This should fit 99.9% of the situations."
I do not see the logic here. Why would LTR language users de facto want their quiz timer to be displayed on the right side of the screen rather than on the left?

You are absolutely right. Everything I said was somewhat relevant for 1.9 where in LTR languages the floating counter would overlap with the beginning of the sentences or with scores, inconveniencing the user. In RTL, it would occupy the are where in RTL screens (right-adjusted by default) was very little information, if at all.
In 2.0 it is totally irrelevant, as has been mentioned - I stand corrected!
My fix for this is to add a sequince number to the beginning of the question. Chapter, Section, Sequince is the format so a question would read: 2.5-03 meaning Chapter 2, section5, question 02. This is enough to move the start of teh question to the right far enough that the timer dows not eclipse the question.
The sequince number is helpful when I have a student tel me the that is an errror in the question. If they are randomized than I cannot have everyone look at question 36 rather they are told to look at question 2.5-03 instead.
This is not all the much of a problem as the timer really only affects the first question anyway...
