## Using tabs
Before you can use Material tabs, you need to add a dependency to the Material
Components for Android library. For more information, go to the
[Getting started](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/docs/getting-started.md)
page.
### Basic usage
![Three fixed tabs with one tab selected.](assets/tabs/tabs_basic.png)
A
[`TabLayout`](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/tabs/TabLayout.java)
can be added to a layout:
```xml
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
...
</com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout>
```
[`TabItem`](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/tabs/TabItem.java)s
can then be added as children of the `TabLayout` and adjusted as needed:
```xml
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
...>
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/text_label_1"
/>
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/text_label_2"
/>
...
</com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout>
```
Observe changes to tab selections:
```kt
tabLayout.addOnTabSelectedListener(object : TabLayout.OnTabSelectedListener {
override fun onTabSelected(tab: TabLayout.Tab?) {
// Handle tab select
}
override fun onTabReselected(tab: TabLayout.Tab?) {
// Handle tab reselect
}
override fun onTabUnselected(tab: TabLayout.Tab?) {
// Handle tab unselect
}
})
```

### Making tabs accessible
The Android tab components support screen reader descriptions for tabs and
badges. While optional, we strongly encourage their use.
#### Content descriptions
Adding a content description to the entire `TabLayout` can be done in XML with
the `android:contentDescription` attribute or programmatically:
```kt
tabLayout.contentDescription = contentDescription
```
Content descriptions can also be added to individual tabs:
```kt
val tab = tabLayout.getTabAt(index)
tab?.contentDescription = contentDescription
```
`BadgeDrawable` also has a number of content description setters for different
badge states:
```kt
val badge = tab.getOrCreateBadge()
// For badges with a number
badge.setContentDescriptionNumberless(contentDescription)
badge.setContentDescriptionQuantityStringsResource(R.string.content_description)
badge.setContentDescriptionExceedsMaxBadgeNumberStringResource(R.string.content_description)
// For badges with a text
badge.setContentDescriptionForText(contentDescription)
```
### Using tabs with ViewPager
A `TabLayout` can be set up with a
[`ViewPager`](https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/viewpager/widget/ViewPager)
in order to:
* Dynamically create `TabItem`s based on the number of pages, their titles,
etc.
* Synchronize the selected tab and tab indicator position with page swipes
First, your
[`PagerAdapter`](https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/viewpager/widget/PagerAdapter)
(or subclass) needs to override the `getPageTitle` function in order to set the
tab text label:
```kt
class Adapter : PagerAdapter() {
...
override fun getPageTitle(position: Int): CharSequence? {
// Return tab text label for position
}
}
```
After the adapter has been set on the `ViewPager`, synchronize the `TabLayout`:
```kt
tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(viewPager)
```
Further customization of the dynamically-created `TabItem`s (such as setting
icons) needs to be done separately:
```kt
val tab = tabLayout.getTabAt(index)
tab?.icon = drawable
```
### Using tabs with ViewPager2
Setting up a `TabLayout` with a
[`ViewPager2`](https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/viewpager2/widget/ViewPager2)
relies on the same concepts as doing so with a `ViewPager`, but the
implementation is different. Everything is handled by the
[`TabLayoutMediator`](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/tabs/TabLayoutMediator.java)
class:
```kt
TabLayoutMediator(tabLayout, viewPager2) { tab, position ->
when (position) {
0 -> {
tab.text = textLabel1
tab.icon = drawable1
}
1 -> {
tab.text = textLabel2
tab.icon = drawable2
}
...
}
}.attach()
```
### Adding badges to tabs
![Example of 3 fixed tabs with badges: a red badge with "1", a red badge with
"88", and a red badge with "999".](assets/tabs/tabs_badged.png)
Tabs support badging with the
[`BadgeDrawable`](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/badge/BadgeDrawable.java)
class:
```kt
// Get badge from tab (or create one if none exists)
val badge = tab.getOrCreateBadge()
// Customize badge
badge.number = number
// Remove badge from tab
tab.removeBadge()
```
### Types
There are two types of tabs: 1\. [Fixed tabs](#fixed-tabs), 2\.
[Scrollable tabs](#scrollable-tabs)
![Composite image: Pets with Dogs, Cats, and Birds tabs; Dog breeds with
Pitbulls, Terrier, Poodle, Labrador (partial)](assets/tabs/tabs-types.png)
## Fixed tabs
Fixed tabs display all tabs on one screen, with each tab at a fixed width. The
width of each tab is determined by dividing the number of tabs by the screen
width. They dont scroll to reveal more tabs; the visible tab set represents the
only tabs available.
### Fixed tabs example
The following example shows a row of fixed tabs.
![Example of 3 fixed tabs.](assets/tabs/tabs_fixed.png)
In the layout:
```xml
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:tabMode="fixed">
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/tab_1"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_favorite_24dp"
/>
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/tab_2"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_music_24dp"
/>
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/tab_3"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_search_24dp"
/>
</com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout>
```
## Scrollable tabs
Scrollable tabs are displayed without fixed widths. They are scrollable, such
that some tabs will remain off-screen until scrolled.
### Scrollable tabs example
The following example shows a row of scrollable tabs.
![Example of 6 scrollable tabs, with the 6th partially cut off by screensize.](assets/tabs/tabs_scrollable.png)
In the layout:
```xml
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:tabMode="scrollable"
app:tabContentStart="56dp">
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/tab_1"
/>
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/tab_2"
/>
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/tab_3"
/>
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/tab_4"
/>
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/tab_5"
/>
...
</com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout>
```
### Anatomy and key properties
Tabs have a container and each tab item has an optional icon and text label. Tab
items can be in an active or inactive state. The tab indicator is shown below
the active tab item.
![Tabs anatomy diagram](assets/tabs/tabs-anatomy.png)
1. Container
2. Active icon (optional if theres a label)
3. Active text label (optional if theres an icon)
4. Active tab indicator
5. Inactive icon (optional if theres a label)
6. Inactive text label (optional if theres an icon)
7. Tab item

See the full list of
[styles](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/tabs/res/values/styles.xml)
and
[attrs](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/tabs/res/values/attrs.xml).
## Theming tabs
Tabs support
[Material Theming](https://material.io/components/app-bars-bottom/#theming)
which can customize color and typography.
### Tabs theming example
API and source code:
* `TabLayout`
* [Class definition](https://developer.android.com/reference/com/google/android/material/tabs/TabLayout)
* [Class source](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/tabs/TabLayout.java)
* `TabItem`
* [Class definition](https://developer.android.com/reference/com/google/android/material/tabs/TabItem)
* [Class source](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/tabs/TabItem.java)
The following example shows a row of scrollable tabs with Material Theming.
![Example of 4 scrollable tabs with light pink background. The selected text is
dark pink, the unselected text is grey.](assets/tabs/tabs_theming.png)
#### Implementing tabs theming
Use theme attributes and styles in `res/values/styles.xml` which applies to all
tabs and affects other components:
```xml
<style name="Theme.App" parent="Theme.Material3.*">
...
<item name="colorPrimary">@color/shrine_pink_900</item>
<item name="colorSurface">@color/shrine_pink_light</item>
<item name="colorOnSurface">@color/shrine_pink_900</item>
<item name="textAppearanceLabelLarge">@style/TextAppearance.App.LabelLarge</item>
</style>
<style name="TextAppearance.App.LabelLarge" parent="TextAppearance.Material3.LabelLarge">
<item name="fontFamily">@font/rubik</item>
<item name="android:fontFamily">@font/rubik</item>
</style>
```
Use default style theme attributes, styles and theme overlays, which apply to
all tabs but do not affect other components:
```xml
<style name="Theme.App" parent="Theme.Material3.*">
...
<item name="tabStyle">@style/Widget.App.LabelLarge</item>
</style>
<style name="Widget.App.TabLayout" parent="Widget.Material3.TabLayout">
<item name="materialThemeOverlay">@style/ThemeOverlay.App.TabLayout</item>
<item name="tabTextAppearance">@style/TextAppearance.App.LabelLarge</item>
</style>
<style name="ThemeOverlay.App.TabLayout" parent="">
<item name="colorPrimary">@color/shrine_pink_900</item>
<item name="colorSurface">@color/shrine_pink_light</item>
<item name="colorOnSurface">@color/shrine_pink_900</item>
</style>
```
Use the style in the layout, which affects only these tabs:
```xml
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
...
style="@style/Widget.App.TabLayout"
/>
```
