Android disable Enter key in soft keyboard

Question

Can anyone tell me how to disable and enable the Enter key in the soft keyboard?

Answer 1

Attach OnEditorActionListener to your text field and return true from its onEditorAction method, when actionId is equal to IME_ACTION_DONE. This will prevent soft keyboard from hiding:

EditText txtEdit = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.txtEdit);
txtEdit.setOnEditorActionListener(new OnEditorActionListener() {

  public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
    if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) {
      // your additional processing... 
      return true;
    } else {
      return false;
    }
  }
});
