Android - TabLayout coming up empty on samsung galaxy tab 10.1

1k views Asked by At

I am using a tablayout nested inside a dialog that I use for a menu in my app. It works fine on all other devices except the galaxy tab 10.1 on which it just comes up empty. Theres not one single error, warning, or mention of such in the logcat or anywhere and I dont see anything coming up null when trying to debug. Anyone have any ideas on what could be the problem with this specific device and a tablayout nested in a dialog? Should I just move the whole tablayout menu into its own activity/subactivity?

Heres what I am doing with the code.....its nothing to crazy:

dialog.setContentView(R.layout.maintabmenu);
final TabHost tabs = (TabHost) dialog.findViewById(R.id.my_tabhost);
tabs.setup();
tabs.setCurrentTab(0);
TabSpec tspec11 = tabs.newTabSpec("New Tab");
    tspec11.setIndicator("User");

tspec11.setContent(R.id.ScrollView01);
tabs.addTab(tspec11);

TabSpec tspec2 = tabs.newTabSpec("New Tab");
tspec2.setIndicator("Settings");

tspec2.setContent(R.id.ScrollView02);
tabs.addTab(tspec2);

TabSpec tspec3 = tabs.newTabSpec("New Tab");
tspec3.setIndicator("My options");
tspec3.setContent(R.id.ScrollView03);
tabs.addTab(tspec3);                 

and heres the xml:

I have figured it out :)

For my case I had to make my xml layout like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

    </FrameLayout>

The difference in layout code is that removed the padding and changed the TabWidget layoutHeight to wrap_content. I think thats why it was comming up blank.
