I use class from How to support Arabic text in Android? to show Arabic text. In Android 2.1 – 2.3 text located in the left side, so I use android:gravity=”right”, but in Android 3.0+ Arabic text has automatically alignment in right side and if I use android:gravity=”right” in will be alignment in the left side. How can I make the text to be aligned with the same in different Android versions?
You can create different versions of the layouts for different API versions.
As you can read here: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/providing-resources.html you can have say the normal folder (
/res/layout/) with the layout for old devices and then another one for the ones that support it:/res/layout-11/The layout inside
layout-v11will only be applied on devices with android 3.0 and over.Hope it helps.
(UPD: API level changed to 11)
UPDATE
On Android 4.2 This is a native feature 🙂
