<Pagexmlns="http://schemas.nativescript.org/tns.xsd"xmlns:rtl="@nativescript-rtl/ui">
<rtl:WrapLayoutorientation="horizontal"width="210"height="210"backgroundColor="lightgray">
<Labeltext="Label 1"width="70"height="70"backgroundColor="red"/>
<Labeltext="Label 2"width="70"height="70"backgroundColor="green"/>
<Labeltext="Label 3"width="70"height="70"backgroundColor="blue"/>
<Labeltext="Label 4"width="70"height="70"backgroundColor="yellow"/>
</rtl:WrapLayout>

For Angular/Vue 'registerElement` must be used to register each RTL element

example: register elements in app.module.ts

import{registerElement}from"nativescript-angular/element-registry";registerElement("RGridLayout",()=>require("@nativescript-rtl/ui").GridLayout);registerElement("RWrapLayout",()=>require("@nativescript-rtl/ui").WrapLayout);registerElement("RAbsoluteLayout",()=>require("@nativescript-rtl/ui").AbsoluteLayout);registerElement("RDockLayout",()=>require("@nativescript-rtl/ui").DockLayout);registerElement("RStackLayout",()=>require("@nativescript-rtl/ui").StackLayout);

now you can use RGridLayout, RWrapLayout, RAbsoluteLayout, RDockLayout and RStackLayout in your angular project

example:

 <RWrapLayoutorientation="horizontal"width="210"height="210"backgroundColor="lightgray">
<Labeltext="Label 1"width="70"height="70"backgroundColor="red"></Label>
<Labeltext="Label 2"width="70"height="70"backgroundColor="green"></Label>
<Labeltext="Label 3"width="70"height="70"backgroundColor="blue"></Label>
<Labeltext="Label 4"width="70"height="70"backgroundColor="yellow"></Label>
</RWrapLayout>
