B4A Library [B4X] [XUI] AS SegmentedTab

New year, new ASViews :)

I spend a lot of time in creating views, like this and to create a high quality view cost a lot of time. If you want to support me and further views, then you can do it here by Paypal or with a coffee. :)

i will be much more thankful to you if you go through it and suggest or make it scrollable,
but then you don't learn it.
  1. Put the ASSegmentedTab to a own form
  2. add a xCustomListView under the ACToolBarLight
  3. use xCustomListView instead of "ListView", i dont know, how to add a panel to a "ListView"
  4. create a new panel
    1. B4X:
      Dim xpnl_seg_Tab_background As B4XView = xui.CreatePanel("")
  5. set a larger width than your ASSegmentedTab width is
    1. B4X:
      xpnl_seg_Tab_background.SetLayoutAnimated(0,0,0,Activity.Width*2,40dip)
  6. load the form with the ASSegmentedTab to this panel
    1. B4X:
      xpnl_seg_Tab_background.LoadLayout("frm_seg_tab")
  7. add this panel to your xCustomListView
    1. B4X:
      CustomListView1.Add(xpnl_seg_Tab_background,"")
For further questions, please make a new thread, I don't want this thread to be endless.

Update
  • 1.07
    • BugFix - SelectedIndex the index was not set
    • Add set Index - change the index without animation, do the same as SelectedIndex(1,0)
Does this fix the problem where selectedindex changes to selected-1 for some reason? I tried it a while ago and this was happening

Hi in AS SegmentedTab I have tested the option PaddingSelectionPanel = 5 and the result is correct.

Screenshot_1640514078.png


The problem is that when the tab is changed the selection is not centred with the indicated margin.

Thanks for your great work on B4X

I would like to thank you for your great work and great contribution to the community. I would also like to ask if there is any way to use icon and text at the same time in the tab... I tried to simulate it in your example but without success. Thanks!

I just found your AS Tab Menu... thank you!
