Android, make text switcher central?

Question

How can I centralise my text switcher? I've tried set gravity but it doesnt seem to work.

ts.setFactory(new ViewFactory() {
        public View makeView() {
        TextView t = new TextView(this);
        t.setTypeface(tf);
        t.setTextSize(20);
        t.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
        t.setText("my text switcher");
        t.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL | Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL);
        return t;
    }
    });

That code is OK, you need to set the parent textSwitcher width to fill_parent

either in XML with

<TextSwitcher android:layout_width="fill_parent" ...

or in code

import android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams;
//...
textSwitcher=...
textSwitcher.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
