Android ViewPagerIndicator

Paging indicator widgets that are compatible with the ViewPager from the Android Support Library to improve discoverability of content.

Try out the sample application on the Android Market.

ViewPagerIndicator Sample Screenshots

These widgets can also be used in conjunction with ActionBarSherlock!

Usage

For a working implementation of this project see the sample/ folder.

  1. Include one of the widgets in your view. This should usually be placed adjacent to the ViewPager it represents.

    <com.viewpagerindicator.TitlePageIndicator android:id="@+id/titles" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="fill_parent" />

  2. In your onCreate method (or onCreateView for a fragment), bind the indicator to the ViewPager.

    //Set the pager with an adapter
    ViewPager pager = (ViewPager)findViewById(R.id.pager);
    pager.setAdapter(new TestAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager()));
    
    //Bind the title indicator to the adapter
    TitlePageIndicator titleIndicator = (TitlePageIndicator)findViewById(R.id.titles);
    titleIndicator.setViewPager(pager);
    
  3. (Optional) If you use an OnPageChangeListener with your view pager you should set it in the indicator rather than on the pager directly.

    //continued from above
    titleIndicator.setOnPageChangeListener(mPageChangeListener);
    

Theming

There are three ways to style the look of the indicators.

  1. Theme XML. An attribute for each type of indicator is provided in which you can specify a custom style.
  2. Layout XML. Through the use of a custom namespace you can include any desired styles.
  3. Object methods. Both styles have getters and setters for each style attribute which can be changed at any point.

Each indicator has a demo which creates the same look using each of these methods.

Including In Your Project

Android-ViewPagerIndicator is presented as an Android library project. A standalone JAR is not possible due to the theming capabilities offered by the indicator widgets.

You can include this project by referencing it as a library project in Eclipse or ant.

If you are a Maven user you can easily include the library by specifying it as a dependency:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.viewpagerindicator</groupId>
  <artifactId>library</artifactId>
  <version>2.4.1</version>
  <type>apklib</type>
</dependency>

This project depends on the ViewPager class which is available in the Android Support Library or ActionBarSherlock. Details for including one of those libraries is available on their respecitve web sites.
