I don't have any specific code for this, since I'm not sure how to approach it. Basically I want to be able to slide the screen when swiped, but I want to stop the screen from sliding when I press a specific button. I'm trying to make a game and the tutorial would involve slides to explain it, but I want a button at the last slide to start the game and the end the tutorial. If I leave it as is, the player could swipe left and go back to the tutorial, which would be weird. How should I do this? Thank you in advance!

What if you changed the viewpager's visibility to "gone" after the end tutorial button click?

Alternatively, you could look at this answer to see how to disable viewpager's swipe functionality.

A whole another approach would be to take the tutorial to another level - you could use DialogFragment with a custom view to do that.

  • Oh, thank you so much! I didn't know that was an option! – Beep Boop Nov 21 '20 at 16:47
  • Just make sure to make changes to view only on UI thread, otherwise the app will crash. Just use Activity.runOnUiThread method when you change the visibility of a View. I still believe that a DialogFragment would be a better option for what you are trying to do, though. – DanDayne Nov 21 '20 at 16:56
