I am unable to load icon from the Google Material design font list in the TabHost icon doing something here is the method pl. suggest.

TabLayout.SetViewPager(ViewPg)

'Do the magic stuff for the custom tabs.
' - First we load an XML Layout file from the resources folder.
' - Then set the text and the icon drawable in this xml layout.


For i = 0 To 2
Dim v As View
v = XmlViewEx.InflateXmlLayout("tab_icon")
TabLayout.SetTabCustomView(i, v)
XmlViewEx.SetXmlViewText(XmlViewEx.FindView(v, "tabText"), titles(i).ToUpperCase)
XmlViewEx.SetXmlViewImage(XmlViewEx.FindView(v, "tabIcon"), xml.GetDrawable(icons(i)))
