Answer 1

For setting layout direction of alert dialog to RTL you can use OnShowListener method.
after setting title , message , .... use this method.
dialog = alertdialogbuilder.create();
dialog.setOnShowListener(new DialogInterface.OnShowListener() {
#Override
public void onShow(DialogInterface dlg) {
dialog.getWindow().getDecorView().setLayoutDirection(View.LAYOUT_DIRECTION_RTL); // set title and message direction to RTL
}
});
dialog.show();

a) If you have it as a drawable in the dialog title (TextView), just use drawableRight
android:drawableRight="#drawable/yourIcon"
b) If it is an ImageView/ImageButton in a RelativeLayout, use alignParentRight
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
c) If it is an ImageView/ImageButton in a LinearLayout, put it after the TextView
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="300dp"
android:layout_height="300dp">
<TextView
android:text="some text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<ImageView
android:src="#drawable/yourIcon"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
Hope this helps you.

All you need is to create a style tag in res/values/styles and write :
<style name="alertDialog LayoutDirection">
<item name="android:layoutDirection">rtl</item>
</style>
and then add this after alert dialog initializing in your activity :
alertDialog.setView(R.style.alertDialog);
for example :
AlertDialog.Builder alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this);
alertDialog.setMessage("حذف بشه؟")
.setCancelable(true);
alertDialog.setPositiveButton("آره", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialogInterface, int i) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "yes", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
alertDialog.setNegativeButton("نه", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialogInterface, int i) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "nooo", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
alertDialog.show();
alertDialog.setView(R.style.alertDialog);

Im afraid you have no other choice then customizing.
The common dialogs are pretty static in UI changes. You can set another title, buttons or change the image but you can't reposition them.
