Question

I have the following XML file

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@drawable/welcome_bg" >

    <FrameLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">

        <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/arrowLeft"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|left"
            android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
            android:clickable="true"
            android:contentDescription="@string/arrow_left"
            android:focusable="true"
            android:src="@drawable/arrow_left"
            android:visibility="invisible" />

        <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/arrowRight"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|right"
            android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
            android:clickable="true"
            android:contentDescription="@string/arrow_right"
            android:focusable="true"
            android:src="@drawable/arrow_right" />

        <android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
            android:id="@+id/tutorialViewPager"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent" />
    </FrameLayout>

</RelativeLayout>

My problem is that when the user clicks on the left arrow or the right arrow then the pager should flip, but i am not able to get click events on the leftarrow or the rightarrow ImageView. I am not able to get the event when the arrows are clicked. I have set onClickListeners on both the arrows but they are never called. Can someone please help me with this?

Answer 1

I figured it out. I had to use rightArrow.bringToFront() and leftArrow.bringToFront(). That brought the buttons to front and i was able to get a click event on them.
