I have ViewPager and below it I have 10 buttons. By clicking on button, for example #4, the pager goes immediately to page #4 by mPager.setCurrentItem(3);. But, I want to disable the paging by swiping with finger horizontally. Thus, the paging is done ONLY by clicking on the buttons.
So, how I can disable the swiping with finger?

Now we no need to create custom ViewPager

A new ViewPager2 name View available in android

Vertical orientation support

• ViewPager2 supports vertical paging in addition to traditional horizontal paging. You can enable vertical paging for a ViewPager2 element by setting its android:orientation attribute

Using XML

<androidx.viewpager2.widget.ViewPager2
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/pager"
    android:orientation="vertical" />

Using code

To disable swiping in viewpager2 use

viewPager2.setUserInputEnabled(false);

To enable swiping in viewpager2 Use

viewPager2.setUserInputEnabled(true);
