How to change colour of Tabs like this? When I click/swipe to green or any other tab, the tab colour should change to that appropriate colour and rest of other tabs colour
I had a similar problem. In my case, I wanted to change the color of the action bar whenever the user clicked on one of the fragments in the navigation drawer.
Here is the code I used to resolve this issue.
Since you can't access the Action bar from a fragment, you have to create it in your main menu. Here is the method I used.
public void restoreActionBar(int parsedColor) {
this.parsedColor = parsedColor;
ActionBar actionBar = getSupportActionBar();
actionBar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_STANDARD);
actionBar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(true);
actionBar.setTitle(mTitle);
actionBar.setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(parsedColor));
}
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
if (!mNavigationDrawerFragment.isDrawerOpen()) {
// Only show items in the action bar relevant to this screen
// if the drawer is not showing. Otherwise, let the drawer
// decide what to show in the action bar.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main_activity_trekkly, menu);
restoreActionBar(parsedColor);
return true;
}
return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}
Now in your class that extends fragment:
public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
super.onAttach(activity);
((MainActivityTrekkly)activity).onSectionAttached(4);
MainActivityTrekkly mA = ((MainActivityTrekkly)getActivity());
mA.restoreActionBar(Color.parseColor("#028482"));
}
I got this working with the Navigation drawer so you might have to adapt this code.
Did this help?
