Rounded corners for TABS in android

Question

I want to achieve rounded corners for the tab that I\'ve constructed in my application. So far I was able to come up with this

Answer 1

Created alternate shapes to solve the problem

Note: These xml files are in addition to the two mentioned.

SELECTED TAB ALTERNATE.XML

UNSELECTED TAB ALTERNATE.XML

Afterwards, add this in your tab selection listener.

    @Override
    public void onTabSelected(TabLayout.Tab tab) {

            viewPager.setCurrentItem(tab.getPosition());

            int selectedTabPosition = tab.getPosition();


            View firstTab = ((ViewGroup)    tabLayout.getChildAt(0)).getChildAt(0);
            View secondTab = ((ViewGroup) tabLayout.getChildAt(0)).getChildAt(1);


            if (selectedTabPosition == 0)
            { // that means first tab
                firstTab.setBackground(getDrawable(R.drawable.selected_tab));
                secondTab.setBackground(getDrawable(R.drawable.unselected_tab));


            } else if (selectedTabPosition == 1)
            { // that means it's a last tab

                firstTab.setBackground(getDrawable(R.drawable.selected_tab_alternate));
                secondTab.setBackground(getDrawable(R.drawable.unselected_tab_alternate));


            }
        }
