How to swipe between tabs

[MoeHamdan]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I want the TabHostView and ViewSwitcher to have the carousel effect? In other words make it work just like a tabstrip works on Android.[...]

Thank you very much for this amazing library.

You can already :)
Use a TabHostView with the HorizontalList (with Carousel Layout) instead of the ViewSwitcher, and bind SelectedIndex to CurrentIndex.

[MoeHamdan]

Oh! You are awesome!!! That worked perfectly!

I have 1 more small question, how would I make the underlined part of the tab header to have the carousel effect? is that possible?

[roubachof]

unfortunately it would require a new implementation of the tabs for this...

[MoeHamdan]

I see thank you! I will try implementing the tab.

[roubachof]

You can create a feature request for this.
I will have time to improve tabs this summer :)

[MoeHamdan]

If I was successful I will pull request it. If not I will feature request it.

Again, Than you so much for this library!

Hi @roubachof,
How to use HorizontalList (with Carousel Layout) instead of ViewSwitcher with different content in each tab? As I know, HorizontalListView has only one DataTemplate to declare its content.

Thank you for your amazing lib.

With a DataTemplateSelector :)

Shouldn't this be the default behaviour. If not, is it planned in the future?

[roubachof]

Use a TabHostView with the HorizontalList (or even with CardsView instead of the ViewSwitcher, and bind SelectedIndex to CurrentIndex.

If we use the horizontalist, can we still use the delayed view? I found the delayed view is very useful.

I'm looking to divide a view into tabs, allowing users to navigate without scrolling by organizing properties into context-specific tabs (for instance, one tab for credentials and another for notification preferences in a profile view). As a collection view isn't suitable for this, I'd like to implement a way to swipe between tabs. I've experimented with SwipeGestureRecognizers, but the outcome wasn't ideal.
