AlignmentSpan.Standard

---

Kotlin |Java

public static class AlignmentSpan.Standard
extends Object implements AlignmentSpan, ParcelableSpan

java.lang.Object
↳	android.text.style.AlignmentSpan.Standard

---

Default implementation of the AlignmentSpan.

For example, a text written in a left to right language, like English, which is by default aligned to the left, can be aligned opposite to the layout direction like this:

SpannableString string = new SpannableString("Text with opposite alignment");
string.setSpan(new AlignmentSpan.Standard(Layout.Alignment.ALIGN_OPPOSITE), 0,
string.length(), Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);

Align left to right text opposite to the layout direction.

A text written in a right to left language, like Hebrew, which is by default aligned to the right, can be aligned opposite to the layout direction like this:

SpannableString string = new SpannableString("\u05d8\u05e7\u05e1\u05d8 \u05e2\u05dd \u05d9\u05d9\u05e9\u05d5\u05e8 \u05d4\u05e4\u05d5\u05da");
string.setSpan(new AlignmentSpan.Standard(Layout.Alignment.ALIGN_OPPOSITE), 0,
string.length(), Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);

Align right to left text opposite to the layout direction.

Summary

Inherited constants

From interface android.os.Parcelable int CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR Descriptor bit used with describeContents(): indicates that the Parcelable object's flattened representation includes a file descriptor. int PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE Flag for use with writeToParcel(Parcel, int): the object being written is a return value, that is the result of a function such as "Parcelable someFunction()", "void someFunction(out Parcelable)", or "void someFunction(inout Parcelable)".

Public constructors
Standard(Parcel src) Constructs a Standard from a parcel.
Standard(Layout.Alignment align) Constructs a Standard from an alignment.

Public methods
int	describeContents() Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation.
Layout.Alignment	getAlignment() Returns the alignment of the text.
int	getSpanTypeId() Return a special type identifier for this span class.
String	toString() Returns a string representation of the object.
void	writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Inherited methods
From class java.lang.Object Object clone() Creates and returns a copy of this object. boolean equals(Object obj) Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one. void finalize() Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object. final Class<?> getClass() Returns the runtime class of this Object. int hashCode() Returns a hash code value for the object. final void notify() Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor. final void notifyAll() Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor. String toString() Returns a string representation of the object. final void wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos) Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed. final void wait(long timeoutMillis) Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed. final void wait() Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.
From interface android.text.style.AlignmentSpan abstract Layout.Alignment getAlignment() Returns the alignment of the text.
From interface android.text.ParcelableSpan abstract int getSpanTypeId() Return a special type identifier for this span class.
From interface android.os.Parcelable abstract int describeContents() Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation. abstract void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Public constructors

Standard

Added in API level 3

public Standard (Parcel src)

Constructs a Standard from a parcel.

Parameters
src	Parcel: This value cannot be null.

Standard

Added in API level 1

public Standard (Layout.Alignment align)

Constructs a Standard from an alignment.

Parameters
align	Layout.Alignment: This value cannot be null.

Public methods

describeContents

Added in API level 3

public int describeContents ()

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation. For example, if the object will include a file descriptor in the output of writeToParcel(android.os.Parcel, int), the return value of this method must include the CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR bit.

Returns
int	a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance. Value is either 0 or CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR

getAlignment

Added in API level 1

public Layout.Alignment getAlignment ()

Returns the alignment of the text.

Returns
Layout.Alignment	the text alignment

getSpanTypeId

Added in API level 3

public int getSpanTypeId ()

Return a special type identifier for this span class.

Returns
int

toString

Added in API level 1

public String toString ()

Returns a string representation of the object.

Returns
String	a string representation of the object.

writeToParcel

Added in API level 3

public void writeToParcel (Parcel dest, 
                int flags)

Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Parameters
dest	Parcel: This value cannot be null.
flags	int: Additional flags about how the object should be written. May be 0 or Parcelable.PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE. Value is either 0 or a combination of Parcelable.PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE, and android.os.Parcelable.PARCELABLE_ELIDE_DUPLICATES
