An implementation of the swipey tabs for the ViewPager from the Android Support Package
Please note that this repository is no longer maintained. Look at my ViewPagerExtensions project (especially SwipeyTabsView) for a better implementation of this view.
For an example of how to use this, see android-viewpagertabs-example

Including In Your Project
This is an Android library project, you can include it by referencing it as a library project in Eclipse or ant.
This project depends on the
ViewPager
class which is available in the Android Support Package. IMPORTANT Make sure to use the latest version of the Support Package! -
Include com.astuetz.viewpagertabs.ViewPagerTabs in your view.
<com.astuetz.viewpagertabs.ViewPagerTabs android:id="@+id/tabs" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="#FF3B3B3B" />
If you want to add a colored line below the tabs, use something like this:
<View android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="2dip" android:background="#FF91A438" />
And then your ViewPager:
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager android:id="@+id/pager" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
-
In your Activity, bind the ViewPager to the ViewPagerTabs in the
onCreate
method.// Set the pager with an adapter ViewPager pager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.pager); pager.setAdapter(new ExampleAdapter(this)); // Bind the ViewPager to ViewPagerTabs ViewPagerTabs tabs = (ViewPagerTabs) findViewById(R.id.tabs); tabs.setViewPager(pager);
Note: The adapter of the ViewPager has to implement
ViewPagerTabProvider
.
You can customize the tabs either by xml-attributes or by setter-methods:
-
Customize by XML-attributes:
<com.astuetz.viewpagertabs.ViewPagerTabs android:id="@+id/tabs" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" app:backgroundColorPressed="#55333E73" app:textColor="#D8D8D8" app:textColorCenter="#FFFC7F" app:lineColorCenter="#FFFC7F" app:lineHeight="4dip" app:tabPaddingLeft="15dip" app:tabPaddingRight="15dip" app:tabPaddingBottom="2dip" app:tabPaddingTop="5dip" app:textSize="12sp" />
Note: Don't forget to define the namespace: xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/your.package.name"
-
Customize by setter-methods:
ViewPagerTabs tabs = (ViewPagerTabs) findViewById(R.id.tabs); tabs.setBackgroundColor(0x00FFFFFF); tabs.setBackgroundColorPressed(0x33333333); tabs.setTextColor(0x44A80000); tabs.setTextColorCenter(0xFFA80000); tabs.setLineColorCenter(0xFFA80000); tabs.setLineHeight(5); tabs.setTextSize(22); tabs.setTabPadding(5, 1, 5, 10);
