Failed to find style vpiCirclePageIndicatorStyle

Question

I wanted to have viewpageindicator in my project, but am having trouble importing it. I've got errors in my XML.

Missing styles. Is the correct theme chosen for this layout?
Use the Theme combo box above the layout to choose a different layout, or fix the theme style references.

Answer 1

Problem:

Solution:

1. Add a custom style in res/layout/values/styles.xml

You can find some examples here.

<style name="StyledIndicators" parent="@android:style/Theme.Light">
    <item name="vpiCirclePageIndicatorStyle">@style/CustomCirclePageIndicator</item>
</style>

<style name="CustomCirclePageIndicator">
    <item name="fillColor">#000000</item>
    <item name="strokeColor">#000000</item>
    <item name="strokeWidth">1dp</item>
    <item name="radius">6dp</item>
    <item name="centered">true</item>
</style>

2. Add new style as a theme in your activity, "StyledIndicators":

   <activity
       android:name=".YourActivity"
       android:theme="@style/StyledIndicators" >
   </activity>
   

3. After that just need to change to theme to the one that comes with the project, choose Manifest Themes - StyledIndicators.

Answer 2

styles.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<style name="AppTheme" parent="android:Theme.Light.NoTitleBar">
    <item name="vpiCirclePageIndicatorStyle">@style/CustomCirclePageIndicator</item>
</style>
<style name="CustomCirclePageIndicator">
    <item name="fillColor">#FF888888</item>
    <item name="strokeColor">#FF000000</item>
    <item name="strokeWidth">2dp</item>
    <item name="radius">10dp</item>
    <item name="centered">true</item>
</style>
</resources>

Now in your Manifest File. Add theme attribute under

<application
    android:icon="@drawable/icon"
    android:label="ViewPagerIndicator Sample"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >

Dont forget to add

  android:theme="@style/AppTheme"
