SwipeSpinnerWidget

Download Demo APK (for Android Lollipop+)

A helper class which turns any existing recycler view to a spinner that allows the user to scroll the whole list through a single dragging gesture. The use of recycler view ensures better performance and better long-term support. Both vertical and horizontal scrolling are supported; set the orientation by using LinearLayoutManager.setOrientation(int). Customization is not included in the helper class; check the companion demo app to see how to add indication arrows and for other tricks.

Compatibility

The helper class is backward-compatible the same way as RecyclerView. The demo app is Lollipop+ due to vector drawables.
