Android Question Problem with SetRotationAnimated

[Filippo]

Hi,

Can someone explain to me why the “SetRotationAnimated” function behaves differently in B4a and B4i?
In B4a, the content rotates around the left point, whereas in B4i it rotates around the center, which I think is correct.
Is there a way to make B4a rotate from the center as well?

Rotation= 0°
lblArrow.As(B4XView).SetRotationAnimated(300, 0)

Rotation = 180°
lblArrow.As(B4XView).SetRotationAnimated(300, 180)

Maybe the label is too wide in B4A? Add a border to see it.

lblArrow.As(B4XView).SetTextAlignment("CENTER", "CENTER")

B4a:
In B4a, the arrow is aligned to the right.

B4i:
In B4i, the arrow is centered.

That's kind of weird, isn't it?

Looks like one attachment is missing.

Might be better to use an image instead of a FontAwesome(?) icon, which can have an unexpected padding.

Problem solved!
I switched the font from MaterialIcons to FontAwesome, and the problem was fixed.

Old-Code:

    lblArrow.As(B4XView).Font = xui.CreateMaterialIcons(30)
    lblArrow.Text = Chr(0xE5C5)

New-Code:

    lblArrow.As(B4XView).Font = xui.CreateFontAwesome(24)
    lblArrow.Text = Chr(0xF0D7)

i had same issues and i noticed that in b4i and b4a the font size is acting differently. in b4i a change all views in my layout with smaller font size that it acts same as in b4a.
i can use #if b4a... #else if b4i... and set a different font size
