Android: Multiline & No autosuggest in EditText

Question

Is it possible to have an EditText that allows multilines and doesn\'t show the suggestions? I tried with this code:

android:inputType=\"textFilter|textMulti         


        

Answer 1

A bit later than the others & the answer has been accepted, but after some testing on various devices, some keyboards ignore textFilter and textNoSuggestion, the only way that I've found to guarantee no keyboard is using textVisiblePassword

If you want it on a multi-line, you can use:

android:inputType="textVisiblePassword|textMultiLine"

Note that it has little to do with the API level, but more to do with the keyboard installed - the default Samsung keyboard on slightly older devices, SwiftKey & TouchPal definitely ignore textFilter & textNoSuggestion

I hope this helps someone else in the future
