progress-indicator-dots

A progress indicator that uses dots to show progress

#Motivation

I once wrote this progress dots indicator for one app, then wrote it again for another app. Now I want to use it again in my next app, so I thought this is a good time to release it as a library and make it open source.

Install

I am in the process of releasing it, in the meantime you have download it and import it as a submodule.

#How it looks like

#Usage

1. Declare it in a layout that you need it in.

<com.roide.progressdotslib.ProgressDotWidget
    android:id="@+id/progress_dots"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="#3F51B5"
    android:padding="@dimen/standard_margins"
    />

2. Get the reference of the View in the activity

mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.container);
mProgressDotWidget = (ProgressDotWidget) findViewById(R.id.progress_dots);

3. Set the no of dots that you want to show

mProgressDotWidget.setDotCount(mSectionsPagerAdapter.getCount());

4. When there is a change in the page, or you want to move the dot around, just call

mProgressDotWidget.setActivePosition(position);

OR

When using with ViewPager,

mViewPager.addOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener() {
  @Override
  public void onPageSelected(int position) {
    mProgressDotWidget.setActivePosition(position);
  }
});
      

Note: Although the example is with ViewPager, this library does not depend on ViewPager
