I have gotten my tabs up and running with Sherlock Fragments. So i have two tabs and two fragments. Now what i want is that when i click on a button in one of the fragments, I want another fragment to open up, but it should be inside the tab that contained the original fragment. Can anyone show me how this can be done ?
Actually Nested Fragments are not possible directly. I had a similar issue and but the Fragment to be shown was small and simple. So I just played with setVisibility() as LinearLayout.GONE and LinearLayout.VISIBLE
On the Fragment initialization, I hid the second layout and when I need to show the other fragment, I hid the first layout and showed the second layout. It worked great for me!

I am currently using a ViewPager with a TabLayout, the ViewPager as of now consists of three separate fragments.
I would like to be able to switch to a fourth fragment using a button on one of the already present fragments.
However, I do not want the fourth fragment to be accessible through the usual ways (aka scrolling) without using the button to reach the fourth fragment. Similarly, I would like scrolling to be disabled when I am currently displaying my fourth fragment.
What would be the best way to do so?
The current hack that I can think of would be to create a hidden fragment within my main layout. I can then display it when the button is pressed while hiding the ViewPager at the same time.
Are there any better ways to do this?
Include your ViewPager in fragment and onClick make replace for the next fragment, and you can return to ViewPager`s fragment onBackPress.
I have implemented an ActionBar with 3 tabs in an android app. I also used ViewPager to switch between different tabs. Every tab is defined in a fragment.
The last tab is called "Setting". I have two different settings. One is "Simple" setting, and the other one is "Advanced" setting. How can I implement these two different settings in the "Setting" tab. Should I make kind of sub-fragments or two new tabs inside the main tab which is "Setting" tab? Can I also for example create two buttons at the top, and switch between them? Or any better idea? Which solution is easier and more efficient. I'm a newbie in Android.
I want to make something like this:
Hope this help
Take SettingFragment as Host fragment
Place both buttons on top and ViewPager below buttons
Take SimpleFragment and AdvanceFragment as items in ViewPager
I created the below project so you can see my exact code and what is going on:
https://github.com/CorradoDev/TabsTest/commit/8f054dab2371b791c4061ceb511413f720f65d67
Basically what I am trying to do is hide the tabs for some pages and show them in other pages.
Below is the code I am using to show the tabs in the onresume
if(getActivity().getActionBar().getNavigationMode()==ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_STANDARD){
getActivity().getActionBar().setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS);
}
THen to hide the tabs I am doing the below on resume:
getActivity().getActionBar().setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_STANDARD);
When I am on the first fragment(nothing in backstack). I can show and hide the tabs on hte second. It gives errors sometimes with changing tabs.
When I am on the second fragment in the backstack and I hide the third fragment. I see the second and third fragment both call the onrefresh but the third fragment does not show.
I am confused on what is going on and why this is not easier.
Below is the error I generally get
03-27 15:26:31.029: E/AndroidRuntime(5505): java.lang.IllegalStateException: Fragment already added: Fragment3{41f2e390 #2 id=0x1020002 fragment3}
I still would like to know why the above does not work. But my fix was to create another activity with the fragment and no tabs. That seems to work well. But I am interested if they did not intend you to change tabs and no tabs per fragment.
I had a similar situation - only that I used NAVIGATION_MODE_LIST instead of tabs. I run into similar issues when I called a fragment from another fragment e.g. click on a list item opening up the item details.
Now I call all fragments from the main activity which allows me to control the set up of the actionbar. Whenever the navigation list should disappear I just call NAVIGATION_MODE_STANDARD when the fragment is called and NAVIGATION_MODE_LIST for the other fragments.
I am creating an android application, in which I used tabs. There are six tabs which shows different activities. Last activity in tab have one button(clear). When we click on button, I want to clear all views in tab. Is it possible. Please guide me.
Just Call another blank activity inside the onclick event of the button.
Try use Fragments instead of Activity for every tab,
this way you could clear the tab much more quickly with FragmentManager
I'm currently developing an application that has a tab bar, and 3
different views: the first is a master-detail, the second one a
gallery, the third is a simple webview.
I was using the TabActivity, but since Android 3.0, this class is
deprecated and Android reference
suggests to use Fragments.
I switched then to an ActionBar, with Tabs and Action
Items. Inseide the first tab item I have a layout with 2 fragments (my
master-detail view). When I switch through tabs I want that my layout
change as I described above, so I thought to hide the left fragment
(the master listview) and work only in the detail fragment.. but with
this solution I have only one main activity with a lot of fragments
attached to it, and for each fragment displayed I need to modify the
Action Item shown and handle different actions in
OnOptionItemSelected.
Is this a good way to implement this kind of
application or should I consider different solutions?
You should have a single fragment container where the fragments are replaced depending on the tab selected.
One activity and multiple fragments is the right approach.
