BottomNavigationView with more than 3 Items: tab title is hiding

Question

I\'m using BottomNavigationView with using Android Support Desing Library 25. But when I switch the tabs, the other tab\'s title is hiding. But there is no hiding issue actu

Answer 1

After scan source code of BottomNavigationView I find

mShiftingMode = mMenu.size() > 3;

in BottomNavigationMenuView.java line 265, it means while menu size more than 3, tab title wiil be hid. So if you want to show tab title you just need to get code from build and change to below.

mShiftingMode = mMenu.size() > 5;

PS: BottonNavigationView max tab count must between 3 and 5. You can get code on BottomNavigationViewNew
