android - Right justify text in AlertDialog

Question

Is it possible to right-justify the text in an AlertDialog's title and message?

I am showing Hebrew messages but they are showing up left justified.

This is an old question, but there is a very simple solution. Assuming you are using MinSdk 17, you can add this to your styles.xml:

<style name="AlertDialogCustom" parent="ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dialog.Alert">
    <item name="android:layoutDirection">rtl</item>
</style>

And in the AlertDialog.Builder you just need to specify this AlertDialogCustom in the constructor:

new AlertDialog.Builder(this, R.style.AlertDialogCustom)
                    .setTitle("Your title?")
                    .show();
