I want to align <label2> to the left and <label> to the right.
When I add the <align>right</align> to the control they both stick to the right on each other.
I know I can just replace them but I wonder if it is possible to align only one of the labels.

thanks.

could you show us the code you're using?

Actually I'm trying to change your skin(Transparency) to fit Hebrew. I'm trying to change the settings part so I edit this part:

Code:

        <control type="togglebutton" id="10">
            <description>Default Category Button</description>
            <include>ButtonCommonValues</include>
            <texturefocus border="10">Button_Side_Focus.png</texturefocus>
            <texturenofocus border="10">Button_Side_NoFocus.png</texturenofocus>
            <alttexturefocus border="10">Button_Side_Focus.png</alttexturefocus>
            <alttexturenofocus border="10">Button_Side_NoFocus.png</alttexturenofocus>
            <onback>SetFocus(5)</onback>
        </control>
        <control type="button" id="7">
            <description>Default Button</description>
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>0</posy>
            <height>35</height>
            <font>font-20</font>
            <textcolor>white</textcolor>
            <focusedcolor>white</focusedcolor>
            <texturefocus border="7">list-focus.png</texturefocus>
            <texturenofocus border="7">list-nofocus.png</texturenofocus>
        </control>
        <control type="radiobutton" id="8">
            <align>right</align>
            <radioposx>10</radioposx>
            <description>Default RadioButton</description>
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>0</posy>
            <height>35</height>
            <font>font-20</font>
            <textcolor>white</textcolor>
            <focusedcolor>white</focusedcolor>
            <texturefocus border="7">list-focus.png</texturefocus>
            <texturenofocus border="7">list-nofocus.png</texturenofocus>
        </control>
        <control type="spincontrolex" id="9">
            <description>Default SpinControlex</description>
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>0</posy>
            <height>35</height>
            <font>font-20</font>
            <textcolor>white</textcolor>
            <focusedcolor>white</focusedcolor>
            <texturefocus border="7">list-focus.png</texturefocus>
            <texturenofocus border="7">list-nofocus.png</texturenofocus>
            <aligny>center</aligny>
            <reverse>yes</reverse>
        </control>
        <control type="sliderex" id="13">
            <description>Default Sliderex</description>
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>0</posy>
            <height>35</height>
            <font>font-20</font>
            <textcolor>white</textcolor>
            <focusedcolor>white</focusedcolor>
            <texturefocus border="7">list-focus.png</texturefocus>
            <texturenofocus border="7">list-nofocus.png</texturenofocus>
        </control>

in the file SettingsCategory.xml

there's not much you can do. the contents of those buttons in filled in by Kodi.

if it's done incorrectly for the Hebrew language, i would call that a bug in Kodi.

[ofek]

I'm just saying that if we use <align>right</align> and <label> is aligned to the right its logical that <label2> will be aligned to the left, right?

[ronie]

it would make sense to me yeah

@ronie

I don't think this is a bug, it would be a really bad solution to allow such feature.
What is needed is to automatically mirror the interface as done for example in Android 4.4+.
Of course a developer who actually can read RTL script should implement this mirroring feature.

p.s. I started reading about Unicode algorithms but I wouldn't call myself a developer.

agreed. and the fact Kodi doesn't do this, is what i was calling a bug. ;-)


apart from that, and totally unrelated to the hebrew language or anything,
i think it would make sense to make label and label2 swap places if you
right align the text on a button.
