android-edittext

I have EditText which is used for entering contents on messages (emails, sms). I want message to be immediately posted on ActionDone button click. I use following code for this: message.setOnEditorActionListener((textView, i, keyEvent) -> { switch (i) { case EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE: if (messageCanBePosted()) { SoftKeyboard.hide(message); postMessage(); return true; } else { return false; } default: return false; } }); But also I want this message field to be multiline, like in any other messenger apps. I can achieve it with this line: android:inputType="textMultiLine" The problem is that

New Android version automatically draws show password icon when I set android:inputType="textPassword" in EditText view. How can I disable it? Thanks Cremons The password icon (or eye-icon) use be removed with the method setPasswordVisibilityToggleEnabled or with app:passwordToggleEnabled through XML.

Example: <android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout android:id="@+id/new_password_layout" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" app:errorEnabled="true" app:passwordToggleEnabled="false"> <EditText android

Whenever a word is typed in the EditText box, I always see an underline under the word being typed. But when I press a space after that word I no longer see the underline. My reqirement is to remove that underline when the user is typing the message. Added is the screenshot and we see that Smith is underlined. But I don't want this to happen. Below is the xml that I use for the AlertDialog box. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android

When my fragment starts, I want my edittext to be in focus/let user to just start typing in it. I am able to get it in focus with requestFocus(), but I cannot get the keyboard to show up. I have tried both this: edit = (EditText) view.findViewById(R.id.search); edit.requestFocus(); InputMethodManager imgr = (InputMethodManager) getActivity().getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); imgr.showSoftInput(edit, 0); and edit = (EditText) view.findViewById(R.id.search); InputMethodManager imgr = (InputMethodManager) getActivity().getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); imgr

My question is, how to put a label in a editBox in android ? Like for example, i want to put "To:" in editbox of a contact picker which will not get deleted even if I press backspace on the onscreen keyboard. I tried with android:hint , but it gets deleted when the editBox is focus or clicked. I tried with image but it's not looking good. So, I need a method by which i can implement this label thing. See the visual diagram I give you two ideas to do this : If you only need this in a couple of places, you can use a FrameLayout / merge to have a TextView over your EditText. Then using a padding

I am working on a android app and I have an EditText where user can input numbers. I want to format the number using different currency formats (say ##,##,###) and I want to do it on the fly, ie when user enter each digit(not when enter is pressed). I googled around, and came across TextWatcher which I first found promising, but it turned out to be an absolute pain. I am debugging my code on a HTC Desire phone which only has a soft keyboard. Now I want to get a callback when user press numbers (0 to 9) , del (backspace) key and enter key. From my testing I found these (atleast on my phone) 1)

If EditText is empty then Login Button has to be disabled. And if EditText has some texts then Login Button has to be enabled. Well you can see this method on Instagram Login.
