Answer 1

If you want to place the cursor in a certain position on an EditText, you can use:

yourEditText.setSelection(position);

Additionally, there is the possibility to set the initial and final position, so that you programmatically select some text, this way:

yourEditText.setSelection(startPosition, endPosition);

Please note that setting the selection might be tricky since you can place the cursor before or after a character, the image below explains how to index works in this case:

So, if you want the cursor at the end of the text, just set it to yourEditText.length().
