Here is what it looks like in the beginning when I haven't added any imagespan chips - As you can tell there the cursor is placed at the right size and the gravity is respected. Then when I add an imagespan, the cursor all of a sudden becomes bigger like this - I don't understand why this happens and I also don't know how to fix it, i.e. keep the cursor the same size. Finally when I start typing again, the cursor is all wierd while maintaining the size of the of the font and the span also moves a little to the bottom. I really want to the keep the cursor the same size and keep it centered I'm

I and using ABS together with theme holo in my application and i get EditText styled as if in ICS. But the line color of the EditText is blue by default and for my design, i need white colored line for the EditText. I tried changing the background, but it is not working.

Based on these XML attribute..... android:inputType="textPersonName" android:inputType="textPersonName" android:inputType="textEmailAddress" android:inputType="textPassword" I want to be able to know this at run time (In Java Code) I have found this method which gives me the input type getInputType() And these are the values returned based on the XML I posted above. 97,97,33,129 However, these do not correspond to the constant values listed here http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/InputType.html How can I know the input type

I have a ListView with an EditText on each row working. I need to select this text on click the edittext to write numbers without erasing or moving the cursor. Using selectAllonfocus at first works. However, after scrolling the listview, the EditText got crazy and selection doesn't work correctly. If I execute selectAll in the listener onFocus, then when a touch is made the contextmenu (select word, select all,etc) is shown instead of the selection. If someone can help. Thanks. I can't tell what it is that you are trying to do. Perhaps it'd help if you can post some of your relevant source

My app should allow users to style inputted or selected text in an Edittext. Some of these styles are Underline, Strike through, Bold and Italic. They are easily added but I don't know how they could be removed and how I could determine if that style has already been added to the selected text. Code for adding style: Spannable str = myEditText.getText(); if (!SpannableUtils.isEmpty(str)) { str.setSpan(new StrikethroughSpan(), startSelection, endSelection, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE); } I tried using removeSpan but it didn't work. Also tried using str.setSpan(new StyleSpan(android

In an edittext is there a method for getting the current line of the cursor? If not I will write my own method, but just wanted to check. If I do write my own method would the best method be to go through every character in the edittext until selectionstart and count the number of \n's using a For loop, or is there a better way? Thanks! Henry Thompson Just to let people know: There is a better way to do this then Doug Paul has suggested by using the getLineForOffset(selection) : public int getCurrentCursorLine(EditText editText) { int selectionStart = Selection.getSelectionStart(editText
