Question

I do this in a spinner

//the text is aligned to center

but i would like to achieve this

//the text is aligned to left

https://i.stack.imgur.com/FTjhs.png

how could I do? I tried using the “gravity” but does not work

java code:

void addProvinceSpinner() {

    ArrayList<String> listaProvince = new ArrayList<String>();
    listaProvince.add("MILANO");
    listaProvince.add("ROMA");
    listaProvince.add("BARI");

    ArrayAdapter<String> dataAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
            R.layout.layout_riga_spinner_inserzionisti,
            R.id.inserzionisti_txt_riga_spinner, listaProvince);

    spinner_province.setAdapter(dataAdapter);
}

xml code (R.layout.layout_riga_spinner_inserzionisti):

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/inserzionisti_txt_riga_spinner"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:padding="10dp"
    android:textColor="#01a0d1"
    android:textSize="20sp" />

main xml code:

<Spinner
    android:id="@+id/inserzionisti_spinner_province"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="@drawable/inserzionisti_spinner_bg"
    android:prompt="@string/inserzionisti_prompt"/>

I just solved…

i had to set

android:layout_width=”wrap_content”

to

android:layout_width=”fill_parent”

in Spinner…

Thanks for all! <3

Create an xml -  raw.xml and put this code:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/spinnerTarget"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center" // As per your requirement (left, center , right etc)
android:textColor="#454545"
android:padding="5dip"
android:textSize="14dip" />

In class file use like this:

ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(
            this, R.array.im_arrays, R.layout.row_spiner);
