Display Multiple Pages With ViewPager2

Question

I have a ViewPager2 with which I want to display multiple pages (at least while the user is scrolling/swiping). I have never used ViewPager2 before (although I have used RecyclerView). I have created the Layout, ViewHolder & Adapter, so I have a functional ViewPager2 with the appropriate data & each individual page is displayed correctly, it is the UI while selecting a new item that I need to modify. How can I change the number of displayed items? Thanks.

Answer 1

Hello,

In fact, for this problem, Google has officially made an example of ViewPager2 with 5 pages, please refer to Slide between fragments using ViewPager2.

Update:

If you want to display multiple pages at the same time in a ViewPager2, then you can override the GetPageWidth method in your adapter. Please refer to PagerAdapter-getPageWidth

Best Regards,

Alec Liu.

The link you give does not solve my problem, it still makes only 1 View visible at a time (or part of an adjacent View while sliding, but only 1 while stopped).
Well, that is pretty much the way ViewPagers work.

Do you have an example of either a ViewPager or a ViewPager2 that works the way you want?

I can't say I've done it, but have you considered a horizontal RecyclerView something like this https://medium.com/holler-developers/paging-image-gallery-with-recyclerview-f059d035b7e7
