java - Center message in android dialog box

Question

I want the message text within my dialog box to be center aligned.

Answer 1

Of course, you can always set the gravity of the original text view. This allows you to not have to worry about formatting and padding.

For example

AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
builder.setTitle("Title");
builder.setMessage("Message");
builder.setPositiveButton("OK", null);
AlertDialog dialog = builder.show();

// Must call show() prior to fetching text view
TextView messageView = (TextView)dialog.findViewById(android.R.id.message);
messageView.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
