Justify android text inside a listview without using a WebView

Question

I need to justify a text in Android without using a WebView, because i use it inside a listview, that create a lot of problems because of the recycle, when i scroll down it's okay, but when i get back up, the webview keep the size of the last one, but change the text. That means that sometime i get a text with a lot of space, it disrupt my ListView.

Is there a library for that ?

Unfortunately you can't justify text on TextView, but it seems that someone found a solution, by creating is own class/library.

Read carefully the answers posted here and here. Hope it helps!

Well, Depends on how you want to justify the Text.

You could use

android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|right" //inside TextView

this will help the text right justified and there is also

android:gravity="right" // inside <TextView>

which will justify the text to right. Similarly left value will left justify.

Also Textview will have a default padding to support other language fonts.
Now you can disable this padding and justify the text further up by using

setIncludeFontPadding
