ViewPager has been around for a number of years now, and was added in support library V22.1.0. In February 2019 the first alpha of ViewPager2 was released. In this post we’ll take a look at how ViewPager2 differs from ViewPager, and how to implement it.

ViewPagerAnimator – The Internals
Earlier this month I released a new lightweight, yet extremely powerful ViewPager animation library named, unsurprisingly ViewPagerAnimator. ViewPagerAnimator is designed to animate arbitrary values as the user navigates between pages within a ViewPager, and will precisely follow the motion of h finger. There is nothing groundbreaking in terms of the techniques I’m using to do…

AppBar – Part 4
The AppBar is an evolution of the ActionBar which provides us with a rich toolbox for defining and customising the behaviour. All apps will have different requirements for their AppBars and each app may have different AppBar implementations in different Activities. In this series, rather than look at the AppBar implementations themselves, we’re going to…
Prism Fundamentals – Part 2
IMPORTANT: Updates to Prism are on indefinite hold – more details can be found in the README in the within the Prism source. I have decided to continue publishing this short series because it documents how to use Prism in its current form and so still may be useful. I am extremely excited to announce…
Adapters – Part 6
Previously in this series we’ve looked at different kinds of Adapters, and in two separate separate series on Styling Android (ViewPager and ViewPager Redux) we’ve looked at ViewPagers. In this article we’re going to look at the common factor of both of these: PagerAdapters.
ViewPager Redux – Part 3
In the previous article we got a basic implementation of the PageTabStrip working with our ViewPager. In this article we’ll look at applying some styles to it.
ViewPager Redux – Part 2
In the previous article we revisited the ViewPager code from an earlier series, and brought it up-to-date to use the latest version of Jake Wharton’s ViewPagerIndicator library. In this article we’ll look at an alternative to Jake’s library.
ViewPager Redux – Part 1
In September 2011 I began a series on Styling Android about ViewPager and Jake Wharton’s ViewPagerIndicator library. This proved to be a very popular series, but the comments on those articles show that there has been some changes in Jake’s library which means that the code in the original articles no longer works with the…
