In my application I use Grid control to show some text and I face that problem when the text is Arabic (As Arabic text starts from right) it starts from the right of its area like is shown below:
When I set the XAlign attribute to "End" it made the English text start from right.
I want it starts from Left regardless of the nature of the language like is shown in below image, Is there a way to do that?

After other some search and trials I used custom render for my Label which equivalent to TextView in Android and after tried some attributes like android:textAlignment. The only attribute worked for me and achieved my goal is android:gravity and here is its rendering code:
Control.Gravity = GravityFlags.Left;
