I was just wondering if anyone knew of an open-source custom view or even a way to make a decent strip of buttons on Android similar to the image below
I have looked at the tab views and such Android provides and it isn't what the client is looking for in terms of aesthetics. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
You probably should implement a custom RadioGroup to implement the UISegmentedControl you have shown in the image. see this github project which implements just that!

Here is another resource i've used to implement the same thing you're after:

I am building an Android application in which I would like to add a button inside the TabLayout. I understand that it is technically feasible but please confirm if it is the recommended approach in Android.
For the reference, below is the sample screenshot. I am looking for similar implementation but instead of displaying only image, I would like to display a checkbox along with a label.
Please help me understand the recommended approach and also please share if any reference in the official documentation about this.
As there are no answers so far, I would like to share my research's key points.
It is not recommended to use icons or some other buttons within the TabLayout.
The TabLayout should be totally allocated in the full width otherwise the user experience will get negatively impacted when we add more number of tab items.
I saw this when I first started and opened my emulator and wanted to include something like in my application.
Does anyone know how you implement this tutorial? Do you basically have a layout file with a TextView, ImageView, and a Button? And inflate it with some kind of dialog fragment? Is there a way to account for the transparency as well?
I experimented with a dialog fragment but mine looks nothing like the screenshot above. (no transparency, position at center, etc...)
I have never used it so I can not give you a code example. However it is documented in the Help Section of the developer documentation.
This library can help you too.
I'm looking for a a tutorial or a start for creating swipeable intros like this image for introducing and helping users in using the app, I know it is based on android swipeable views but all the links I found had tabs, and since these kinds of intros are very popular I though maybe there is a better and more forward way to do it.
Thanks very much
Try to use : Android-ViewPagerIndicator lib(https://github.com/JakeWharton/Android-ViewPagerIndicator)
You need to use a ViewPager and a library called ViewPagerIndicator for the small circle at the bottom.
Does anybody know how the article layout in the Google Currents Android app is built? I'd like to use some very similar layout for my app.
Example:
The first thing which came to my mind was to build up an the layout with a WebView with multicolumn stlye (http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-multicol/). Am I on the right way or is my suspicion completely wrong.
How do I get the page flip through the swipe/fling gesture and how to get the corresponding page indicator at the bottom?
Thanks in advance! :-)
You must use native views android and not webView because it is not efficient. But if you begun on Android you can actually use a webView is a good learning.
However, if you're interreses the layout android http://developer.android.com/ the website is a very good teaching technique. And what is the view of pourfaire text scroll from right to left, I encourage you to use the library ViewPagerIndicator.
I hope I have helped you!
could somebody help me and give a example of how can I do a viewpager that can be rotated right/left, something like this: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0Sjg8-LaZuo/TkxHAPOkAkI/AAAAAAAACgM/VjNo-nK9fuk/s1600/device-2011-08-18-005327.png
thanks!!!
What you need is this http://viewpagerindicator.com/
Best solution I have seen so far.
Archive that you'll find on this site contains both library and example showing how to implement such type of GUI in you app.
