How to Disable Scrolling on a Viewpager

Is it possible to disable scrolling on a ViewPager

A simple solution is to create your own subclass of ViewPager that has a private boolean flag, isPagingEnabled. Then override the onTouchEvent and onInterceptTouchEvent methods. If isPagingEnabled equals true invoke the super method, otherwise return.

public class CustomViewPager extends ViewPager {

    private boolean isPagingEnabled = true;

    public CustomViewPager(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public CustomViewPager(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
        return this.isPagingEnabled && super.onTouchEvent(event);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
        return this.isPagingEnabled && super.onInterceptTouchEvent(event);
    }

    public void setPagingEnabled(boolean b) {
        this.isPagingEnabled = b;
    }
}

Then in your Layout.XML file replace any <com.android.support.V4.ViewPager> tags with <com.yourpackage.CustomViewPager> tags.

How do disable paging by swiping with finger in ViewPager but still be able to swipe programmatically?

You need to subclass ViewPager. onTouchEvent has a lot of good things in it that you don't want to change like allowing child views to get touches. onInterceptTouchEvent is what you want to change. If you look at the code for ViewPager, you'll see the comment:

    /*
     * This method JUST determines whether we want to intercept the motion.
     * If we return true, onMotionEvent will be called and we do the actual
     * scrolling there.
     */

Here's a complete solution:

First, add this class to your src folder:

import android.content.Context;
import android.support.v4.view.ViewPager;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.view.MotionEvent;
import android.view.animation.DecelerateInterpolator;
import android.widget.Scroller;
import java.lang.reflect.Field;

public class NonSwipeableViewPager extends ViewPager {

    public NonSwipeableViewPager(Context context) {
        super(context);
        setMyScroller();
    }

    public NonSwipeableViewPager(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
        setMyScroller();
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
        // Never allow swiping to switch between pages
        return false;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
        // Never allow swiping to switch between pages
        return false;
    }

    //down one is added for smooth scrolling

    private void setMyScroller() {
        try {
            Class<?> viewpager = ViewPager.class;
            Field scroller = viewpager.getDeclaredField("mScroller");
            scroller.setAccessible(true);
            scroller.set(this, new MyScroller(getContext()));
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    public class MyScroller extends Scroller {
        public MyScroller(Context context) {
            super(context, new DecelerateInterpolator());
        }

        @Override
        public void startScroll(int startX, int startY, int dx, int dy, int duration) {
            super.startScroll(startX, startY, dx, dy, 350 /*1 secs*/);
        }
    }
}

Next, make sure to use this class instead of the regular ViewPager, which you probably specified as android.support.v4.view.ViewPager. In your layout file, you'll want to specify it with something like:

<com.yourcompany.NonSwipeableViewPager
    android:id="@+id/view_pager"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="0dp"
    android:layout_weight="1" />

This particular example is in a LinearLayout and is meant to take up the entire screen, which is why layout_weight is 1 and layout_height is 0dp.

And setMyScroller(); method is for smooth transition

How to disable or enable viewpager swiping in android

Disable swipe progmatically by-

    final View touchView = findViewById(R.id.Pager); 
    touchView.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() 
    {         
        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event)
        { 
           return true; 
        }
     });

and use this to swipe manually

touchView.setCurrentItem(int index);

Disable ViewPager scrolling animation

I do not know if there is a clean solution. But you can use a trick and undo the standard page transformer with another transformer. The NoPageTransformer would look like this:

private static class NoPageTransformer implements ViewPager.PageTransformer {
    public void transformPage(View view, float position) {
        if (position < 0) {
            view.setScrollX((int)((float)(view.getWidth()) * position));
        } else if (position > 0) {
            view.setScrollX(-(int) ((float) (view.getWidth()) * -position));
        } else {
            view.setScrollX(0);
        }
    }
}

To add it to your ViewPager, call:

mViewPager.setPageTransformer(false, new NoPageTransformer());

Will work in SDK version 16 and above.

How to disable scrolling ViewPager while keyboard is shown?

Well, the problem was solved the next way: I just created a little function to hide the keyboard

 public static void hideKeyboard(Activity activity) {
    InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) activity.getSystemService(Activity.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
    //Find the currently focused view, so we can grab the correct window token from it.
    View view = activity.getCurrentFocus();
    //If no view currently has focus, create a new one, just so we can grab a window token from it
    if (view == null) {
        view = new View(activity);
    }
    imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(view.getWindowToken(), 0);
}

And then used the listener of ViewPager:

viewPager.addOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onPageScrolled(int position, float positionOffset, int positionOffsetPixels) {
            hideKeyboard(activity);
        }

        @Override
        public void onPageSelected(int position) {
            if (prevMenuItem != null)
                prevMenuItem.setChecked(false);
            else
                 navigation.getMenu().getItem(0).setChecked(false);

            navigation.getMenu().getItem(position).setChecked(true);
            prevMenuItem = navigation.getMenu().getItem(position);
        }

        @Override
        public void onPageScrollStateChanged(int state) {

        }
    });
