Android Viewpager Dimension

Does the ViewPager have to be the only object present inside the activity layout? I'm trying to implement something like this:

<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
    android:id="@+id/page_viewer"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="0dp" 
    android:layout_weight="1"/>

Solution 3:

I solved the problem with a couple of hacks. Here is what it involves:

First, I needed a layout that would ignore ViewPager's height limit. Used it as a parent layout for ViewPager items.

publicclassTallLinearLayoutextendsLinearLayout {

    publicTallLinearLayout(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    publicTallLinearLayout(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    publicTallLinearLayout(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    }

    @OverrideprotectedvoidonMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED);
    }
}

I then wrote the logic for resizing ViewPager:

privateclassViewPagerContentWrapperimplementsOnGlobalLayoutListener {
    private ViewPager mViewPager;

    publicViewPagerContentWrapper(ViewPager viewPager) {
        mViewPager = viewPager;
    }

    @OverridepublicvoidonGlobalLayout() {
        intposition= mViewPager.getCurrentItem(); 
        check(position);
        check(position + 1);
    }

    privatevoidcheck(int position) {
        ViewGroupvg= (ViewGroup) mViewPager.getChildAt(position); 
        Viewv= vg == null ? null : vg.getChildAt(0);

        if (v != null) {
            intheight= v.getHeight();
            if (height > mViewPager.getHeight()) {
                resize(height);
            }
        }
    }

    privatevoidresize(int height) {
        mViewPager.setLayoutParams(
                newLinearLayout.LayoutParams(
                        LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
                        height
                )
        );
    }
}

Which I registered as global layout listener:

viewPager.getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new ViewPagerContentWrapper(viewPager));
