I know that Android's Youtube app is not open source, but I pulled apart the apk with apktool and found that they have a class, YoutubeListView used frequently in their app. Is there already an open source implementation of the Youtube Player Activity's title/ fling view/ layout? I know of similar views like Joao Machete's FlingAndScrollViewer, but I need it to be rigge to a title menu and work as smoothly as that on the Youtube app. If there is no open source implementation, either how hard would it be to convince Google to release just that component's source, or to implement it myself?
Thanks
Btw, the footer in this layout is what I am talking about. It has titles like Info & Related videos that can be clicked and it scrolls to them, and it can be scrolled left and right.
I've come to the conclusion that there is no such view. It would be best to make my own custom layout.

guys I am developing an Android Studio, and I would like to create a scrollabe header, a similar one that this app has: Donald Trump Soundboard.
Do you know any lectures on youtube or anywhere where I can learn a required skills to create such a header?
If you want to have a scrollable Tab Layout, I have created an android library that does just that. It has custom animations too if you're into that. You can take a look here
and see if it suits your purpose.
I just saw the app, the one you are talking about is swipe​ view. The tabs are not fix rather it moves. It has been asked here( How to make scrollable tab in Android? )
Hi I am new to Android development and I want to add a specific looking view in the my main app window, which I have seen in many apps but dont actually know the name of it :) So its hard for me to check the android developers websites for details.
Below is a good example of an app using this widget or whatever is check the link:

Look at the ones that have Squat etc in thats Im referring to. Im not wanting to build a workout app, but I want to use a similar floating area like this, as I like the look. So the question is what is this called in android, its not a listview or textview I believe.
Sorry for the noob question but as I said Im very VERY green at Android dev.
Thanks
The view used here are
CardView - Check
Recyclerview -Check
Viewpager with fragments -Check
Toolbar- Check
I'm looking to create a carousel that snaps to whatever page covers most of the screen after a swipe, similar to how swipes can move through pages of android shortcuts and widgets. Similar to this. Each page should be able to display any assortment of layouts, data, or pictures.
I have looked at the resources on the "Creating an Android Image Carousel" page by Giancarlo Leonio. However, most questions are unanswered or do not apply to android.
I have seen tutorials with a viewpager, but they immediately switch pages after a swipe. I prefer that the pages appear to be connected.
You are looking for ViewPager. I don't know where you found these tutorials that lead you to believe that the interactions would appear that the pages are not interconnected.
You can find a good tutorial and demo transitions on the official documentation: http://developer.android.com/training/animation/screen-slide.html
Additionally, if you also want the indicators that Carousels would normally have you can take a look at the most popular library out there for ViewPagers...

Sample App on Google Play
I am currently using the MuPDF library from here: http://www.mupdf.com/
I've successfully compiled the library and everything is working great, though I am at a loss on how to achieve the following.
I want to attach views, such as button views, textviews, webviews and imageviews to the MuPDFReaderView. But everytime I try to add the view I fail to get any visible results, I can not see the attached view anywhere and I'm sure it's being added because when I debug it, the code is successfully run.
The reason I want to do this is to overlay views on the PDF view which will then scale and move along with the PDF document.
I ofcourse realise there isn't any code in this question, but I can't really post the entire MuPDF source code here, so here's what I think is relevant in a pastebin:
http://pastebin.com/qJFNsvdV
So yeah, how and where would I attach views to the document so they scale and move with the document properly?
We have a similar feature in our Android customizable magazine app, using muPDF: we add views on top on the pdf view to display slide shows or videos inside a magazine page.
This app is open source and available on Github. It should be easy for you to review the code, and see how we implemented this feature.
I am creating an application which displays several "pages" of content. Typically this is representative as tabs on a desktop based application.
On android, I want to be able to flick between the tabs of information, using there finger anywhere on the screen. The content of these tabs will just be XML views, or programmatically created views.
Looking at Applications on android, there are several applications that do this. Google Play, Gmail, Beautiful Widgets, BBC News, Contacts, Engadget.
I've looked for several terms, mostly scrollable tabs but haven't found anything that is similar to the above applications. I'm looking at TabHost, TabWidget and ViewPaper at the moment, but not sure if these do what I'm looking for.
Can anyone tell me which control can be used in android to get the functionality. Out of the apps listed I'm looking to have it styled more like the Google Play store, with the name of the tab at the top, and the names of the nearby tabs to the left and right if applicable.
There is an example on the android blog for this, used on google play app.
Horizontal View Swiping with ViewPager
Sounds like you're looking for this. It's compatible with ViewPager, the v4 compatibility library, and ActionBarSherlock.
