Center Align Text - Spinner

<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/textView1"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
    android:ellipsize="marquee"
    android:textAlignment="center"
    android:textSize="17sp"
    tools:ignore="MissingPrefix" />

      

        
        
        
      

    

Use this text representation as the layout passed to your adapter.
android:textAlignment="center"

this line is the one who does the magic

your layout is R.layout.my_spinner_style,

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 <TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" 
   android:id="@+android:id/text1"
   style="?android:attr/spinnerItemStyle"
   android:singleLine="true"
   android:textColor="#ffffff"
   android:layout_width="fill_parent"
   android:layout_height="wrap_content"
   android:ellipsize="marquee" />

      

        
        
        
      

    

Now install this adapter on your meter,

 spinner.setAdapter(adapter);

      

        
        
        
      

    

Create an adapter for your meter, for example

ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(context, R.layout.my_spinner_style,array_of_values) {

public View getView(int position, View convertView,ViewGroup parent) {

    View v = super.getView(position, convertView, parent);

    ((TextView) v).setTextSize(16);

    return v;

}

public View getDropDownView(int position, View convertView,ViewGroup parent) {

    View v = super.getDropDownView(position, convertView,parent);

    ((TextView) v).setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);

    return v;

}

};

      

        
        
        
      

    

The best answer and was tested for Mouloud

, but in Marshmallow I had to add textAlignment

to keep the dropdowns centered. So the complete code based code is Mouloud

:

<!-- Spinner style -->
<style name="spinnerItemStyle">
    <item name="android:textColor">@color/colorAccent</item>
    <item name="android:gravity">center</item>
    <item name="android:textAlignment" tools:targetApi="jelly_bean_mr1">center</item>
</style>

<!-- Spinner style drop down style-->
<style name="spinnerDropDownItemStyle">
    <item name="android:textColor">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
    <item name="android:gravity">center</item>
    <item name="android:textAlignment" tools:targetApi="jelly_bean_mr1">center</item>
</style>

      

        
        
        
      

    

And add style to your theme style:

<!-- Change the spinner style-->
<item name="android:spinnerItemStyle">@style/spinnerItemStyle</item>
<item name="android:spinnerDropDownItemStyle">@style/spinnerDropDownItemStyle</item>

      

        
        
        
      

    

In your layout, add "theme" attribute to Spinner like -

             <Spinner
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
                android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/_10sdp"
                android:theme="@style/CustomSpinnerTheme"
                android:entries="@array/entries"
                android:gravity="center"
                />

      

        
        
        
      

    

and add style (in values ​​/ style file) -

<!-- Spinner style -->
<style name="CustomSpinnerTheme">
    <item name="android:textSize">@dimen/_15ssp</item>
    <item name="android:textColor">@color/textMainColor</item>
    <item name="android:gravity">center</item>
    <item name="android:textAlignment">center</item>
</style>

      

        
        
        
      

    

Enjoy :)

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    TextView label = new TextView(context);
    label.setText(myObjs[position].getText());
    label.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
    return label;
}

@Override
public View getDropDownView(int position, View convertView,
                            ViewGroup parent) {

    TextView label = new TextView(context);
    label.setText(myObjs[position].getText());
    label.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
    return label;
