I want to create an ActionBar
and a tabbed navigation like the google+ app.
I used this example as a starting point and now I have a great actionbar:
I've also included a ViewPager
and a TabHost
to have tabs and scrolling left/right Fragments.
What i need is to show the back arrow in version prior to honeycomb.
If I set getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true)
, the arrow is automatically show in version >= honeycomb.
What I also want to have is Tabs like the google+ app.
This is how is my tab bar looks:
removed dead ImageShack link
...and this is what i want:
removed dead ImageShack link
I can't find any example to style tab bars like that one.
I would recommend you the ActionBarSherlock for ActionBar compatibility with Android <3. It is a better implementation that the example offered in the developers page.
Using this package, the back arrow will appear when you add to your activity the following line.
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
Regarding the Google+ tabs, I have found the widget ViewFlow very useful and looking exactly the same. Moreover, you don't have any backward compatibility issues. Have a look to the CircleFlowIndicator example.
