How to determine when Fragment becomes visible in ViewPager

Problem: Fragment onResume() in ViewPager is fired before the fragment becomes actually visible.

For example, I have 2 fragments with ViewPager and FragmentPagerAdapter. The second fragment is only available for authorized users and I need to ask the user to log in when the fragment becomes visible (using an alert dialog).

How to set the title of DialogFragment?

This should be a simple task, but for some reason I can find a way to set the title of a DialogFragment. (I am setting the dialog contents using “onCreateView” overload).

The default style leaves a place for the title, but I can’t find any method on the DialogFragment class to set it.

The title is somehow magically set when the “onCreateDialog” method is…

Complete Working Sample of the Gmail Three-Fragment Animation Scenario?

TL;DR: I am looking for a complete working sample of what I’ll refer to as “the Gmail three-fragment animation” scenario. Specifically, we want to start with two fragments, like this:

Upon some UI event (e.g., tapping on something in Fragment B), we want:

How to handle button clicks using the xml onClick within Fragments

Pre-Honeycomb, each Activity was registered to handle button clicks via the onClick tag in a Layout’s XML.

android:onClick="myClickMethod"

Within that method you can use view.getId() and a switch statement to do the button logic.

I’m wondering if this is actually a bug in the Android API:
