How to hide soft keyboard on android after clicking outside EditText?

Question

Ok everyone knows that to hide a keyboard you need to implement:

InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.hi         


        

Answer 1

Use OnFocusChangeListener.

For example:

editText.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
    @Override
    public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
        if (!hasFocus) {
            hideKeyboard();
        }
    }
});

Update: you also may override onTouchEvent() in your activity and check coordinates of the touch. If coordinates are outside of EditText, then hide the keyboard.
