android-edittext

I have a one line EditText, when I set a long hint, the hint wraps to two lines. Can I force the EditText to be always one line tall? android:lines="1" didn't work. Have you tried android:ellipsize yet? This can be set to truncate the line to end in "..." either at the start, the middle, the end, or you can set it to marquee (scroll across). Not sure offhand whether this applies to hints or not, but it should. Try android:singleLine="true" Use android:maxLines="1" or android:singleLine="true" instead of android:lines="1" 来源： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3958138/how-to-make-edittext-hint

I'm trying to implement an EditText that limits input to alpha chars only [A-Za-z]. I started with the InputFilter method from this post . When I type "a%" the text disappears then if I hit backspace the text is "a". I've tried other variations on the filter function like using a regex to match only [A-Za-z] and sometimes see crazy behavior like repeating chars, I'll type "a" then "b" and get "aab" then type "c" and get "aabaabc" then hit backspace and get "aabaabcaabaabc"! Here's the code I'm working with so far with the different approaches I've tried. EditText input = (EditText)findViewById

I need to get the EditText that's defined in an xml layout which is dynamically loaded as a view in a preference dialog i.e. : public class ReportBugPreference extends EditTextPreference { @Override protected void onPrepareDialogBuilder(AlertDialog.Builder builder) { super.onPrepareDialogBuilder(builder); builder.setView(LayoutInflater.from(ctx).inflate(R.layout.preference_report_bug_layout,null)); EditText edttxtBugDesc = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.bug_description_edittext); // NOT WORKING } } EDIT : SOLUTION by jjnFord @Override protected void onPrepareDialogBuilder(AlertDialog.Builder

I'm trying to implement an EditText that limits input to Capital chars only [A-Z0-9] with digits as well. I started with the InputFilter method from some post.But here I am getting one problem on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 but not in emulator or Nexus 4. Problem is like this : When I type "A" the text shows as "A" its good Now when I type "B" so text should be "AB" but it gives me "AAB" this looks very Strange. In short it repeats chars Here's the code I'm working with this code : public class DemoFilter implements InputFilter { public CharSequence filter(CharSequence source, int start, int end,
