I am using Tab Activity in my android app, and I want to change the first tab that appears when I open my app, to be the last tab. For example if I have 5 Tabs (tab1, tab2, tab3, tab4, tab5), instead of the current situation where the first tab is "tab1" I want that the first tab will be "tab5" but that the tabs will remain in the same order (That way when I need to swipe right to get to the other tabs ) .. Does anyone know how to make it happen? Thank you very much

From Jelly Bean you need no worry about it...

First of all Thank you for the quick reply.
I tried to implement it it in
my app, but unsuccessfully.
I added to the manifest
android:supportsRtl="true"
And to my Main Activity
android:layoutDirection="rtl"
What should I add / Change ?

Should it be that you IDE not supporting it while compiling...
Early Android Studio didn't supported it...
What are you using?

Android Studio 1.0.2 - Which I think is the latest..
