MainActivity:

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    private float lastX;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        vf = (ViewFlipper) findViewById(R.id.view_flipper);        
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);
        return true;
    }

    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent touchevent) {

                if (lastX < currentX)

                    if (vf.getDisplayedChild()==0) 
                        break;

                    vf.setInAnimation(this, R.anim.in_from_left);
                    vf.setOutAnimation(this, R.anim.out_to_right);

                if (lastX > currentX)
                {
                    if (vf.getDisplayedChild()==1)

                }

                break;
            }

            case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
            {
                float tempX = touchevent.getX();
                int scrollX = (int) (tempX - lastX);

                //vf.scrollBy(scrollX, 0);

                break;
            }

        }

        return false;

    }
}

Order of images goes like this: photo1, photo4, photo3, photo2. How to make it: photo1, photo2, photo3, photo4?

Thank you

Answer 1

The order of the images are alright, but there is something wrong with your code. See below how to fix the issue:

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    private ViewFlipper vf;
    private float lastX;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        vf = (ViewFlipper) findViewById(R.id.view_flipper);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);
        return true;
    }

    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent touchevent) {

        switch (touchevent.getAction())
        {
            case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
            {
                lastX = touchevent.getX();
                break;
            }

            case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
            {
                float currentX = touchevent.getX();

                if (lastX < currentX)
                {
                    if (vf.getDisplayedChild()==0)
                        break;

                    vf.setInAnimation(this, R.anim.in_from_left);
                    vf.setOutAnimation(this, R.anim.out_to_right);
//                    vf.showNext();
                    vf.showPrevious();
                }

                if (lastX > currentX)
                {
//                    if (vf.getDisplayedChild()==1)
                    if (vf.getDisplayedChild()==vf.getChildCount()-1)
                        break;

                    vf.setInAnimation(this, R.anim.in_from_right);
                    vf.setOutAnimation(this, R.anim.out_to_left);
//                    vf.showPrevious();
                    vf.showNext();
                }

                break;
            }

            case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
            {
                float tempX = touchevent.getX();
                int scrollX = (int) (tempX - lastX);

                //vf.scrollBy(scrollX, 0);

                break;
            }

        }

        return false;

    }
