Cites Elvis King · 2015-06 · Stack Overflow · on “Android - highlight icon with SlidingTabLayout”

Currently I'm trying to implement the SlidingTab with icon as tabtitle, then the icon should be highlighted when the corresponding tab is selected. I use Google's SlidingTabLayout in following tutorial, and have made the icon instead of the tabtitle as well. [this video] I know where I can get the current tab position by implementing OnPageChangeListener, but I don't what should I add in public void onPageSelected(int position) {} here is my current status and code, please kindly advise, it will be appreciate if you keep the instruction as detail as possible, since I am a very beginner as a android developer. thanks MainActivity.java public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements
