Hi Chen,

Please i will like to disable scrolling in the vertical direction when swiping from one tab to another.When swiping is complete, enable scrolling in the vertical direction of a container with a BoxLayout.X_AXIS. The reason is because it produce some weird movements.

findTabs(f).setSwipeActivated(false); will disable horizontal scrolling for tabs.

You will add to each containers inside the Tab the following method to disable vertical scrolling:

findMyContainerNo1.setScrollableY(false); 

findMyContainerNo2.setScrollableY(false); 

findMyContainerNo1............etc.

Its problematic to know when a gesture starts whether its intended as a scroll down or a side swipe.
Devices are very sensitive and you never get exact motion from users so if your UI includes Y scrollability and you still want to have a side swipe capability this is pretty much inevitable.
