I want to disable the "switching tabs by clicking on tab name" of the PagerTabStrip based on a condition.
I think the following code is right but I am still able to switch tabs by clicking on the tab names. I was able to disable the switching of tabs via swipe by custom ViewPager but I want to disable by clicking on tab names too.
My custom PagerTabStrip
package com.blah;
import android.content.Context;
import android.support.v4.view.PagerTabStrip;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.view.MotionEvent;
public class CustomPagerTabStrip extends PagerTabStrip {
private boolean isTabSwitchEnabled;
public CustomPagerTabStrip(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
this.isTabSwitchEnabled = true;
}
@Override
public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
System.out.println("ENable?? "+isTabSwitchEnabled); // it prints out false or true based on what I have set
if (this.isTabSwitchEnabled) {
return super.onInterceptTouchEvent(event);
} else {
return false;
}
}
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
if (this.isTabSwitchEnabled) {
return super.onTouchEvent(event);
}
return false;
}
public void setTabSwitchEnabled(boolean isSwipeEnabled) {
this.isTabSwitchEnabled = isSwipeEnabled;
}
}
I disable it by using:
CustomPagerTabStrip pagerTabStrip = (CustomPagerTabStrip) findViewById(R.id.tabtitle);
pagerTabStrip.setTabSwitchEnabled(false);
My layout:
<com.blah.CustomViewPager xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/pager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<com.blah.CustomPagerTabStrip
android:id="@+id/tabtitle"
style="@style/viepagertitlestrip"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="top"
android:background="@color/primary"
android:paddingBottom="4dp"
android:paddingTop="4dp"
>
</com.blah.CustomPagerTabStrip>
</com.blah.CustomViewPager>
Consume the touch event in onInterceptTouchEvent() by returning true. I think it will do the job
