Android soft keyboard push only a certain view - android

I have an activity with a custom action bar and a listview, down below is a framelayout containing edittext where user can type whatever text.
my problem is that, when the edittext got focus, the entire layout is pushed up (the custom action bar is no longer visible)
is there a way where only the framelayout with edittext gets pushed up, much like the Facebook comments?
I've seen suggestion wherein I should use ScrollView but I'm already using a ListView, I don't think ScrollView is recommended here.
Also tried using isScrollContainer=false, but still not working

Try adding this line before the setContentView() in your onCreate() method,
getWindow().setSoftInputMode(
WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_PAN);

Try setting this in your manifest file.
<activity android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" />

Android: the soft keyboard is hiding the EditText in fragment

I have a fragment that has some EditTexts that need to be filled by the user. There's a problem that the soft keyboard hides the EditText so that the user cannot see what they're writing. I don't want the user to scroll manually, I want the fragment to adjust so that it fits the keyboard automatically.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I have seen lots of suggestions to add android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
or android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"in manifest. However, I want this action to be only for a specific fragment and not for all fragments within the activity.
I have tried adding requireActivity().window.setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_RESIZE)
In onCreateView or in onCreate but nothing seems to change.
In my case,
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" and ScrollView
it's work for Fragment in Activity.

Prevent Linear layout scrolling up when soft keyboard shown

I have an EditText visible in a LinearLayout that I don't want to move when the soft keyboard is shown. The reason I don't want it to move is because I want to control the items above and adjust their sizes to make the EditText and the content it controls below to become visible.
Is it possible to prevent the screen moving at all once the soft keyboard is shown?
Note: I am using an activity with the toolbar hidden.
I have solved this - I have added the SetSoftInputMode to AdjustNothing to the OnCreate method. Doing this in the xml doesn't do anything, but in the code does.
In your AndroidManifest.xml file, go to your activity and add this.
<activity
...
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustNothing"
/>
your views will remain in the same position

How to prevent Title bar hiding when keyboard in active?

I have one form (Scroll View) in TabActivity, tabs appears on bottom of the page, and I have one EditText element bottom of the page. Whenever user wants to enter text total UI moving top along with Title bar. Is there any possibility to prevent it?
Try to set android:windowSoftInputMode to the activity in your Manifest. Otherwise change the Layout to relative and make your EditText android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
Refer this Example
Use android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" in android manifest with your activity or refer SoftInputMode documentation.

Keyboard hidden edittext and there isn't scroll ANDROID

I done a form with 5 edittexts but when the keyboard is going to show the last two edittext I can't see.
Only way to switch to the next fields is to use the buttons on the keyboard.
There is any solution to add a scroll without use the buttons?
I tried with sdk 3, resize keyboard and other things like that.
Why not keep the entire layout in a scrollview. And add the attribute to the activity in manifest file
<activity android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustResize">
So when the keyboard is shown, the layout will be scrollable.

Have you tried adding the android:windowSoftInputMode tag to your activity in the manifest? From what you are describing I would think that either adjustResize or adjustPan should work.

Get soft keypad to stop modifying my LinearLayout on display?

In my android application, I have an EditText. When I click in this field, the soft keyboard appears, expanding from the bottom of the screen. It seems to actually modify my layout, pushing contents upwards. When I dismiss the keypad, it retracts, and I see my layout re-expand to take up the space it previously occupied.
Is there a way to get the keyboard to simply appear "on top" of my layout, so that I don't get this somewhat unpleasant relayout animation? The EditText is pinned to the very top of the screen, so I don't have to worry about the keypad hiding it.
Thanks
By default, Android should be using "Pan and Scan", which would work more or less how you described. The keyboard is displayed over your view, and you can scroll your view in the background. If you override the windowInputMode for you Activity, or Android determines that your Activity is resizable (because of the presence of a resizable field... ListView, ScrollViews, etc), it may resize your view instead, and it sounds like that's what you're running into. To force it to Pan and Scan try adding:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
as an attribute to the Activity element in your xml layout.
There's a third option as well. You can specify that when an EditText is selected it will be edited in full screen mode. The other controls in your view will be hidden, the user will be presented with just the keyboard, an EditText control, and optionally some other limited controls. If your EditText doesn't require a lot of context from other elements of your view, it may prevent a cleaner user interface. For more details, see: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/04/updating-applications-for-on-screen.html
Add:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
to your activity attr in manifest.xml. Hope it will help.
This questions seems to state a resize is not desirable. I had the same issue, but adding
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustNothing"
to the manifest file instead solved my problem.
