如何使用片段和视图分页器在android中的选项卡宿主指示器上实现滑动效果

Question

I am new to android development and I want to implement a sliding effect on the tab host when the user slides left or right to change tabs implemented using fragments and view pager.

As soon as the user slides the page, the tab host indicator should also slide.

Facebook's new android app has this already implemented. Please refer to this image for a better understanding as to what I mean.

Thanks for any help available :)

Answer 1

It's possible to use ActionBar tabs, but this design mode has been deprecated in API 21 , and it works differently on different sized screens anyway which can lead to some undesired effects.

I used the classes in SlidingTabs example from Android developers to achieve this effect without having to include a 3rd party library dependency. There is a video tutorial as well.

Answer 2

Use a ViewPager with ActionBar tabs.
