Problem: Upon clicking a button in a fragment inside of the ViewPager the click falls through to the fragment that is behind it and registers the onClickListener() in the behind fragment rather than the current fragment’s onClickListener().
Situation: I have a ViewPager with 4 fragments in it. Each fragment contains a few rows of custom made buttons. Each fragment has it’s own unique view/layout, yet they are all designed similarly.
Set Up: I am using the FragmentPagerAdapter, because I have a short list of pretty static fragments AND because I need to communicate and update each fragment by using an interface, like how the developer docs suggest.
My Idea: Should I switch to the FragmentStatePagerAdapter? So the adapter will destroy the fragments when they are not visible? But in doing this, will I not be able to communicate with the fragments and update them accordingly?
I don’t know how to solve this problem and it has been driving me mad! Any help is appreciated.
Ask me if I need to clarify anything.
The reason that the fragment behind/after/to-the-right of the current fragment in the viewpager was catching the button clicks was because of the use of the PageTransformer class that I used to add a fade out animation to the pages upon sliding. This PageTransformer animation messed everything up on android version 4.1.1 API 16 and version 4.2.2 API 17. SO be weary of using PageTransformer, especially if you want to support older android versions.
