Question

Answer 1

You can swipe in both directions already. By default it shows page zero, but you could change that:

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // ...
    viewPager.setCurrentItem(myFragmentCount-1); 
    // ...

Answer 2

First u need to implements OnPageChangeListener in your class and second set the listener to your viewpager like viewpager.setOnPageChangeListener(yourclass.this); Hope This will work.

Answer 3

You don't any third party library. Android recently added new UI component called ViewPager2 which supports RTL View Pager.

Please find below link to an answer. The answer talks about Migration guide and sample github app to support RTL view pager.

Answer 4

It is the very simple technique to change the swipe direction of the Viewpager.

There are two simple step which has to follow you,

1. Change the rotation of the View pager,

viewpager.setRotationY(180);

2. Then again change the direction of the fragment container which is the child of viewpager,

recyclerView.setRotationY(180);

Note: In my case, I have used recyclerview as the child of the view pager.

This is 100% worked for me.

Answer 5

You can do something like this,

ViewPager.setCurrentItem(lastposition);

Answer 6

I'm sure it's not relevant for the op, but I found a solution that worked for me (as modifying the data was a problem for my case). I simply rotated the viewpager 180 degrees in the Y axis, and then rotated it's subviews again in 180.

android.view.View

public void setRotationY(float rotationY)

Hope it helped anyone, as I think this is the most close to how Android mirrors all the os when change to rtl language.
