Language Based Scanning in a UILabel

Question

Hello, I'm developing a twitter client (YES, another one) for the RTL languages.

How can a UILabel alignment be configured depending on the language of a tweet. So if language of the tweet is Arabic for example the alignment would be UITextAlignmetRight and vice versa.

Answer 1

Simply set the textAlignment property of the UILabel in code:

label.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentRight;

Answer 2

thanks gerry3, you are missing the point here, my question was how to make UILabel magically figure out what language its about to draw so it sets the alinement accordingly. arabic tweet == (UITextAlinmentTight), english tweet == (UITextAlinmetLeft).

I hope I made it clear this time thanks in advance
