android-tabhost

I have a TabHost holding 5 tabs. As far as I can see, there has to be one tab selected at all times. I need a way to unselect all my tabs so none will be selected. If the tabhost is meant by general to have one tab selected at all times, how can I make it appear (UI speaking) as if the tab isn't selected? This is not possible AFAIK. but yes,you can set the selected tab's color to look like it is unselected and set a blank layout over it by managing a global variable when you make it 'unselected' and setting up normal layout when you want it to be shown normally to user. But this is kind of a

On the android TabHost layout , when the user selects a tab the color of the tab changes temporarily. How do I either disable this color change, or specify the color that the tab changes to? UPDATED Instead of making an own example and taking credit for it, I found my old bookmarked tutorial. How to change background on Android Tabs I'll suggest you to implement your own tab_indicator_selector.xml. Example: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <!-- Non focused states ... --> <!-- Focused states ... --> <!-- Pressed -->

I want to communicate with a fragment in a FragmentTabHost The communication Fragment->Activity is done! With an interface. But I can't create a communication Activity->Fragment because I created the fragment like this: mTabHost.addTab( mTabHost.newTabSpec("tab2").setIndicator("Affichage", getResources().getDrawable(android.R.drawable.star_on)), MySelectionFragment.class, null); MySelectionFragment is a class not a fragment like new MySelectionFragment() And I dunno how to communicate with a class :/ Thanks in advance! The trick was to override the onAttach method like this: @Override public

First let me clarify that i have already referred the SO question related to "Android - TAbhost". I have done googling about "Android Tabhost" but failed to find the solution. My problem is: If are having <3 tabs then it is fine. but Supporse if we are having 4 tabs with indicator title as TabHost1, TabHost2, TabHost3, TabHost4). But this title in Tab does not get fitted with tab. so is there any way to fit the Title Text (i.e. indicator) inside the tab ?? I thought the source of our issue was somewhere in the framework's code. And sure enough, I found some clues : First, if you look inside

I am trying to create smaller tabs in android -- but I can't seem to get it to work because all that happens when I create a smaller tab is that it shows the bigger tab -- but without a drawable. This is my layout code for tabs now -- but the height isn't wrapping for some reason -- it just goes to Android's usual layout height. <TabHost xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@android:id/tabhost" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"> <LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout
