I have a ListView
that captures swipe gestures to delete a row. This ListView
lives in a Fragment
. On phones this is in it's own Activity
and works great. On tablets this Fragment
is in a ViewPager
and the ListView
is never able to capture any of the the swipe events since they always go to the ViewPager
.
How would I go about making sure swipe gestures are captured by the ListView
to consume before they are passed to the ViewPager
?
P.S.
I am using this library for my swipe to dismiss gestures in my ListView
How would I go about making sure swipe gestures are captured by the ListView to consume before they are passed to the ViewPager?
Create a subclass of ViewPager
and override canScroll()
. If the supplied View
is the ListView
, return true
to have the touch events be given to the ListView
.
For example, here is a class I use in some samples for hosting maps in a ViewPager
:

package com.commonsware.android.mapsv2.pager;
import android.content.Context;
import android.support.v4.view.PagerTabStrip;
import android.support.v4.view.ViewPager;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.view.SurfaceView;
import android.view.View;
public class MapAwarePager extends ViewPager {
public MapAwarePager(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
@Override
protected boolean canScroll(View v, boolean checkV, int dx, int x,
int y) {
if (v instanceof SurfaceView || v instanceof PagerTabStrip) {
return(true);
}
return(super.canScroll(v, checkV, dx, x, y));
}
}
Now, it is entirely possible that there may be more to getting your swipe-to-dismiss to work inside the ViewPager
, but I would start here.
