Sliding Tabs Using ViewPager in Android
Hey, I have designed the Sliding Tabs Using ViewPager in Android.
The ViewPager is the widget that allows the user to swipe left or right to see an entirely new screen. In a sense, it's just a nicer way to show the user multiple tabs. It also has the ability to dynamically add and remove pages (or tabs) at any time. Consider the idea of grouping search results by certain categories, and showing each category in a separate list. With the ViewPager, the user could then swipe left or right to see other categorized lists. Using the ViewPager requires some knowledge of both Fragments and PageAdapters. In this case, Fragments are "pages". Each screen that the ViewPager allows the user to scroll to is really a Fragment. By using Fragments instead of a View here, we're given a much wider range of possibilities to show on each page. We're not limited to just a List of items. This could be any collection of views and widgets we may need. You can think of PageAdapters in the same way that you think of ListAdapters. The Page Adapter's job is to supply Fragments (instead of views) to the UI for drawing.sss
