I am new to android and I have just started working on application for the first time. I have created/using a tab bar view to display multiple view.

I am getting the tab bar at the bottom of the screen. However I want to display the tab bar on the left of the screen.

The code I am using is as follows.

  android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"

My activity_main.xml is as follows:-

  <TabWidget
        android:id="@android:id/tabs"
        android:layout_width="300dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:background="#2184C6" />

The image i am getting is:- enter image description here

Can anyone please help me with this.

Set a fixed width for the TabBar and use android:layout_alignParentLeft="true". – Demonick Apr 24 '13 at 08:59
