android选项卡在横向视图中垂直显示在屏幕的左侧

Question

I know that it is possible to place the tabs at the top or bottom view in portrait mode. However when i moved the orientation to the landscape view, the tabs will be in a row horizontally at the top.

I saw that it is possible when i opened up the Calendar application in my android phone, because the tabs are vertical in horizontal view, at the left hand side too.

Is there any way to change it to appear at the left hand side vertically on the screen? is it possible to change it through doing different views in layout-port and layout-land, or change manifest.xml or any other possible way through coding

thanks for the help in advance. this problem has been quite hard to solve.

Answer 1

I think for creating a layout with Tabs on the left hand side, you can get related information on this link: Left Side Tab Widget

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

In my experiments, I found out that there's very little customisation available that you can do with Tabs' position. This, as an answer, I would say, till now we can't position tabs on the left or right. I may be wrong, but this is what I feel.

However, you're always free to write your own tab implementation and use it.
