I have an edit text:
<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/linearLayout7" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<EditText android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_weight="1" android:id="@+id/editText1" android:text="3">
<requestFocus></requestFocus>
</EditText>
<Button android:text="Button" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/button2"></Button>
</LinearLayout>
and then some other stuff underneath
The problem I'm having is that right when the app starts the focus is on the input, i dont want focus to be on input right when the app starts.
I tried removing the
<requestFocus></requestFocus>
thing and it didn't do anything.
Add the android:focusable="true" and android:focusableInTouchMode="true" elements in the parent layout of EditText as follow;
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/linearLayout7" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:focusable="true" android:focusableInTouchMode="true">
I think, it should help you.
NO More work... just add android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden" to activity tag of the Manifest.xml file .
If you want clear the default focus on the edit text then use the following 2 attributes
android:focusable="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
inside the parent Linear layout.
for example:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:focusable="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:orientation="vertical">
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="email id"
android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
android:maxLines="1"
/>
</LinearLayout>
If you want to hide the keyboard on activity creation use these attributes inside manifest file activity tag for example:
<activity
android:configChanges="screenSize|orientation|keyboardHidden"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:name=".activities.LoginActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustResize"/>
If you want to hide the keyboard on button click or on some event occur use the following code
public void onClick(View v) {
try {
//InputMethodManager is used to hide the virtual keyboard from the user after finishing the user input
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
if (imm.isAcceptingText()) {
imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(), 0);
}
} catch (NullPointerException e) {
Log.e("Exception", e.getMessage() + ">>");
}
}
} catch (NullPointerException e) {
Log.e("Exception", e.getMessage() + ">>");
}
If you want to take off the focus from edit text fields after leaving the activity
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
mEmail.clearFocus();
mPassword.clearFocus();
}
And finally If you want to clear the data in the edit text fields on submitting the form use
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
mEmail.getText().clear();
mPassword.getText().clear();
}
<LinearLayout
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:layout_width="0px"
android:layout_height="0px" />
<EditText android:text=""
android:id="@+id/EditText01"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="@string/hint">
</EditText>
No other coding needed, it's a simple and clear solution.
You can use window soft input mode hidden for hide keyboard and android:focusable="false" and android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden"
android:label="@string/app_name"
>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<EditText
android:id="@+id/input"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:focusable="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="false" />
detailInputView = (EditText) debugToolsView.findViewById(R.id.input);
detailInputView.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
@Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
detailInputView.setFocusable(true);
detailInputView.setFocusableInTouchMode(true);
return false;
}
});
It worked for me, wish also will help you.
Either :
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden"
add this property to your Manifest.xml file under that specific activity where you want to disable auto focus. Cons: It will only hide your soft keyboard, will cursor will be still there.
Else :
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
add this property to your UI xml file (under parent layout), so that it will hide focus also the keyboard both.
Just add the following to your main layout view xml tag:
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
Hei Lee,
There are several way to do this, Mudassir has give a way to you to do that.
If the idea doesn't work, then do just simple thing-
In your AndroidManifest>Activity add this simple code:
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden"
Nothing need to do in EditText in XML, all will be work and no focus will appear.
Look the real life example code:
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden"
android:label="@string/app_name"
>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
try this code in LinearLayout
<LinearLayout
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<EditText
android:hint="Search..."
android:drawableRight="@drawable/ic_search"
android:id="@+id/search_tab_hotbird_F"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="@+id/recyHotbird_F"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:padding="4dp">
</android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView>
</LinearLayout>
for clear default requestFocuse you should set your View's parent focusable="true" like this below
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
android:id="@+id/coordinatorChild"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true">
