Android ViewPager Prev/Next Button

AndroidButtonNavigationAndroid Viewpager

Android Problem Overview

Okay, so I'm developing an Android app that utilises a ViewPager to display pages.

Within each page, I have a set of buttons to use for navigating between pages (in addition to the swiping between pages). These buttons are for "first page", "previous page", "next page" and "last page".

What I can't figure out how to do is engineer a mechanism to enable a page change on a button click.

Anyone have any ideas?

ETA: To better explain the setup, the buttons are declared within each page's layout, and are inflated with the rest of the layout within the PagerAdapter. My problem is that I can't reference the ViewPager from within the PagerAdapter. Or at least, I can't think of a way to do it.

Solution 1 - Android

Button:

Button yourButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);
    yourButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
   	 	
   	 @Override
    	   public void onClick(View view) {
    		   mViewPager.setCurrentItem(getItem(+1), true); //getItem(-1) for previous
    	   }
    	});

Function:

private int getItem(int i) {
	   return mViewPager.getCurrentItem() + i;
}

Hope this helps :)

Solution 2 - Android

yourButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
   @Override
   public void onClick(View view) {
      yourViewPager.setCurrentItem(page, smoothScroll);
   }
});

Solution 3 - Android

  1. Make layout

       <RelativeLayout
             android:layout_width="match_parent"
             android:layout_height="200dp"
             android:background="@color/white"
             android:weightSum="1">
 
 
 
             <android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
                 android:id="@+id/images_pager"
                 android:layout_width="match_parent"
                 android:layout_height="match_parent"
                 >
             </android.support.v4.view.ViewPager>
 
             <ImageView
                 android:id="@+id/img_next"
                 android:layout_width="35dp"
                 android:layout_height="35dp"
                 android:src="@drawable/forward_white"
                 android:background="@color/colorPrimary"
                 android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                 android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
                 android:layout_marginRight="5dp"
                 android:paddingTop="5dp"
                 android:paddingBottom="5dp"
                 />
 
 
             <ImageView
                 android:id="@+id/img_previous"
                 android:layout_width="35dp"
                 android:layout_height="35dp"
                 android:src="@drawable/back_white"
                 android:background="@color/colorPrimary"
                 android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                 android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
                 android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
                 android:paddingTop="5dp"
                 android:paddingBottom="5dp"/>
 
 
         </RelativeLayout>

  2. Set custom Adapter

         CustomViewPagerAdapter  custompageradpter;
     ViewPager   mViewPager;
     mViewPager = (ViewPager)shareImagesDialouge.findViewById(R.id.images_pager); 
      custompageradpter = new CustomViewPagerAdapter(this);
      mViewPager.setAdapter(custompageradpter);
 
 public class CustomViewPagerAdapter  extends PagerAdapter {
 
 
     Context mContext;
     LayoutInflater mLayoutInflater;
 
     int[] mResources = {
             R.drawable.emoji_1,
             R.drawable.emoji_2,
             R.drawable.emoji_3,
             R.drawable.emoji_4,
             R.drawable.emoji_5,
             R.drawable.emoji_6
     };
 
     public CustomViewPagerAdapter(Context context) {
         mContext = context;
         mLayoutInflater = (LayoutInflater) mContext.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
     }
 
     @Override
     public int getCount() {
         return mResources.length;
     }
 
     @Override
     public boolean isViewFromObject(View view, Object object) {
         return view == ((LinearLayout) object);
     }
 
     @Override
     public Object instantiateItem(ViewGroup container, int position) {
         View itemView = mLayoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.pager_item, container, false);
 
         ImageView imageView = (ImageView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.imageView);
         imageView.setImageResource(mResources[position]);
 
         container.addView(itemView);
 
         return itemView;
     }
 
     @Override
     public void destroyItem(ViewGroup container, int position, Object object) {
         container.removeView((LinearLayout) object);
     }
 
 }

  3. For next and previous button

          case R.id.img_previous:
                 mViewPager.setCurrentItem(getItemofviewpager(-1), true);
                 break;
 
             case R.id.img_next:
                 mViewPager.setCurrentItem(getItemofviewpager(+1), true);
                 break;

  4. Make this function

    private int getItemofviewpager(int i) { return mViewPager.getCurrentItem() + i; }

Solution 4 - Android

A failproof upgrade to sweggersen's and Alex Orlov's answer,

// For scrolling to next item
nextPageButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

    @Override
    public void onClick(View view) {
        viewPager.setCurrentItem(getNextPossibleItemIndex(1), true);
    }
});

// For scrolling to previous item
previousPageButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

    @Override
    public void onClick(View view) {
        viewPager.setCurrentItem(getNextPossibleItemIndex(-1), true);
    }
});

Add getNextPossibleItemIndex() method in your Activity/Fragment,

private int getNextPossibleItemIndex (int change) {

    int currentIndex = viewPager.getCurrentItem();
    int total = viewPager.getAdapter().getCount();

    if (currIndex + change < 0) {
        return 0;
    }

    return Math.abs((currentIndex + change) % total) ;
}

This way, you will be able to change currentItem without worrying about IndexOutOfBoundsException as suggested by Heinrich's comment. Note that using this method, items will be displayed like a circular list.

1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 1

But going back, it will stop at first item

1 <- 1 <- 2 <- 3

Solution 5 - Android

Do it like this:

backButton=(Button)findViewById(R.id.back_button);
nextButton=(Button)findViewById(R.id.next_button);
backButton.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);//you can use GONE or even disable it. It depends on your layout 

   
    nextButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            viewPager.setCurrentItem(viewPager.getCurrentItem()+1, true);
        }
    });


    backButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            viewPager.setCurrentItem(viewPager.getCurrentItem()-1, true);
        }
    });
}

To prevent IndexOutOfBoundsException you should hide and show the two buttons like this :

    viewPager.addOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onPageScrolled(int i, float v, int i1) {

        }
        @Override
        public void onPageSelected(int position) {
            if(position==0) {
                backButton.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
            }else  {
                backButton.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
            }
            if(position < viewPager.getAdapter().getCount()-1 ) {
                nextButton.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
            }else  {
                nextButton.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
            }
        }
        @Override
        public void onPageScrollStateChanged(int i) {

        }
    });

Solution 6 - Android

I finished this project with this code.

vPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.viewpager);
    View tempView1 = inflater.inflate(R.layout.ani_dialog1, null);
	firstView = (ImageView) tempView1.findViewById(R.id.ani_dialog_next);
	views.add(tempView1);
	firstView.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

		@Override
		public void onClick(View v) {
			// TODO Auto-generated method stub
			vPager.setCurrentItem(1, true);

		}
	});

Solution 7 - Android

Update code

Button preButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.pre_button);
        Button nextButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.next_button);

        preButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {

                mViewPager.setCurrentItem(mViewPager.getCurrentItem()-1, true); 
                

            }
        });

        nextButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {

                mViewPager.setCurrentItem(mViewPager.getCurrentItem()+1, true); 

            }
        });

Solution 8 - Android

First create an interface

public interface OnPageChangedListener {
void OnPageChanged(int position);      }

Next Implement your activity with OnPageChangedListener interface and do the below stuff

private void setupViewPager(ViewPager viewPager){
    viewPagerAdapter = new ViewPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());
    viewPagerAdapter.addFragment(new Fragment1(this));
    viewPagerAdapter.addFragment(new Fragment2(this));
    viewPagerAdapter.addFragment(new Fragment3(this));
    viewPagerAdapter.addFragment(new Fragment4(this));
    viewPagerAdapter.addFragment(new Fragment5(this));
    viewPagerAdapter.addFragment(new Fragment6(this));
    viewPager.setAdapter(viewPagerAdapter);
}
@Override
public void OnPageChanged(int position) {
    viewPager.setCurrentItem(position);
}

In your fragments create a constructor using

private OnPageChangedListener listener;

public Fragment1(OnPageChangedListener listener1) {
    this.listener = listener1;
}

ViewPagerAdapter

public class ViewPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
private final List<Fragment> mFragmentList = new ArrayList<>();

public ViewPagerAdapter(FragmentManager manager) {
    super(manager);
}

@Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
    switch (position) {
    }
    return mFragmentList.get(position);
}

@Override
public int getCount() {
    return mFragmentList.size();
}

public void addFragment(Fragment fragment) {
    mFragmentList.add(fragment);
}}

Hope this helps you

Solution 9 - Android

public void onClick(View v) {
     int currentItem = mViewPager.getCurrentItem();
     mViewPager.setCurrentItem(currentItem+1); //(currentItem-1)
}

only this code in button click: @Override

getcurrentitem is the actual item in viewpager, the next item is currentItem + 1
