Android – Button text always showing in uppercase

androidxamarin.formsxamarin.forms-stylesxaml

In my xamarin forms project button text are always show in uppercase format.
But I am providing upper and lower case letters in xaml. When I build the solution all the letters are changed to uppercase.

I'm guessing you see this on Android as it is the default for button text and has been since Lollipop.

To change this behavior add the following to your styles.xml file which can be found in the Android project under the Resources then values folders

<item name="android:textAllCaps">false</item>

Android – How to center text horizontally and vertically in a TextView

I'm assuming you're using XML layout.

<TextView  
    android:layout_width="match_parent" 
    android:layout_height="match_parent" 
    android:gravity="center"
    android:text="@string/**yourtextstring**"
/>

You can also use gravity center_vertical or center_horizontal according to your need.

and as @stealthcopter commented in java: .setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);

Update

You can now use textAllCaps to force all caps.
