Load data when Fragment is showing in Actionbar with Navigation tabs

Question

I have this huge data in 7 Navigation Tabs. My problem is all the Tabs load simultaneously instead of one Tab at a time. I tried using onHiddenChanged(boolean isHidden) but its not been called.

Answer 1

@Override
public void setUserVisibleHint(boolean isVisibleToUser) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.setUserVisibleHint(isVisibleToUser);
          if(isVisibleToUser) { 
             To do what is required to load data 
      } else {
             Do nothing
       } 
   }

This method will gets called when u select each tab. Override this method in every tab fragment activity.
