Hi Readers,

This blog will display the collection view content in Right To Left language such as Hebrew/ Arabic. Generally, you will see the collection view as displayed in the below screenshot.

To set UICollectionView right align first make a property of UICollectionView
example ->

@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UICollectionView *myCollectionView;

After this add following code to "viewDidLoad"

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    [self.myCollectionView setTransform:CGAffineTransformMakeScale(-1, 1)];

    // Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}

Now you will see mirror image of your collection view along with right align cell , like in below screenshot.

Now to remove this strange mirror effect,don’t forget to add below line to add in “cellForItemAtIndexPath”.

- (UICollectionViewCell *)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{
    DemoCollectionViewCell *cell = [collectionView dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier:@"DemoCollectionViewCell" forIndexPath:indexPath];
    [cell.contentView setTransform:CGAffineTransformMakeScale(-1, 1)];
    NSString *str = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%ld",(long)indexPath.row];
    NSString *mainStr = @"Label ";
    mainStr = [mainStr stringByAppendingString:str];
    [cell.labelTxt setText:mainStr];
    return cell;
}

Now run your app, and you will see output like following screenshot.
