I have used viewPager with PagerTabStrip, which is working fine. But i want to use custom layout for each Tab.

For now, it takes Tab string data from tabtiles[] array which is passed through the getPageTitles() callback. So, instead of passing a CharSequence, is it possible to pass a view of the custom layout defined for the tab.

private String tabtitles[] = new String[] { "Tab1", "Tab2", "Tab3" };

@Override
    public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
        return tabtitles[position];
    }

I was also wondering to use adapter for the tab data, as my tabs list is going to grow and the layout is going to be same.

Any kind of suggestions would be appreciated.

If you want to have `Drawables` instead of text, try [this](http://stackoverflow.com/a/23893776/4908802). – yennsarah Jan 13 '16 at 08:41
Thanks @Amy but i want to set a custom_layout for the tabs. – Ritt Jan 13 '16 at 09:51
If you can't find anything else, you could try with `SlidingTabLayout`, there is a `setCustomTabView` method. – yennsarah Jan 13 '16 at 10:00
Thank you @Amy , i will try that out. – Ritt Jan 13 '16 at 10:25
I used SlidingTabLayout and SpannableString instead of using a layout with three text views. Thanks @Amy. – Ritt Jan 13 '16 at 11:10
