Edittext Move Next to Item of Recyclerview

I created a recycler view in which one is text view and other is edit text where data is added at runtime so I want to do that when I click of a keyboard next button then it moves to next edit text item issue is when I do it move to text view instead of edit text and so on... as shown in below image. what can I do that this is going through as my requirement? I tried all answers of s.o.f but failed.
here is my adapter code where the item is shown.
public void onBindViewHolder(#NonNull MyViewHolder holder, int position) {
StudentMarks subject = subjectList.get(position);
holder.subjectName.setText(subject.getStudentsName());
holder.subjectId.setText(Collections.singletonList(subject.getStudentsId()).toString());
holder.subjectMarks.setText(subject.getStudentMarks());
if (!idStudent.contains(subject.getStudentsId())) {
idStudent.add(subject.getStudentsId());}
holder.subjectMarks.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
#Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
}
#Override
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
subjectList.get(position).setStudentMarks(holder.subjectMarks.getText().toString());
try {
String st_id = subjectList.get(position).getStudentsId();
for (int i = 0; i < id.size(); i++) {
if (id.get(i).equals(st_id)) {
id.remove(subjectList.get(position).getStudentsId());
value.remove(i);
}}
id.add(subjectList.get(position).getStudentsId());
value.add(holder.subjectMarks.getText().toString().trim());
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
if (idStudent.toArray().length != id.toArray().length) {
listListener.onArrayListListener(id, value, position, "Please Enter Student Marks First");
} else {
listListener.onArrayListListener(id, value, position, "Student Marks Submitted");
}
}
#Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
}
});
holder.setIsRecyclable(false);
}

use android:inputType="text" in editText in xml file
if you are adding dynamic edittexts then you can do it like this
editText.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT);
refere this site where you can found various input types according to your need like for password(this will hide the typed text), numbers(numbered keyboard),etc

you can add android:maxLines="1" & android:inputType="text" to your EditText. It will surely work.

How can I adjust the size deppending on the visible content in an android view?

I'm creating a list view in an android app and each item expands and collapses.
Here is each item's code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

And here is the "getView()" method of list view:
public View getView(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
convertView = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.alarme, null);
final Alarme alarme = alarmes.get(position);
//main view
TextView hora = convertView.findViewById(R.id.textView_aHora);
Switch estado = convertView.findViewById(R.id.switch_aEstado);
LinearLayout layoutDiasRepetir = convertView.findViewById(R.id.layout_diasRepetir);
final ImageView arrowDown = convertView.findViewById(R.id.imageView_arrowDown);
//detalhes
final RelativeLayout layoutDetalhesExpanded = convertView.findViewById(R.id.layout_detalhesExpanded);
CheckBox cbRepetir = convertView.findViewById(R.id.checkbox_repetir);
LinearLayout layoutDiasRepetirButtons = convertView.findViewById(R.id.layout_diasRepetirButtons);
EditText editText = convertView.findViewById(R.id.editText_mensagem);
final ImageView arrowUp = convertView.findViewById(R.id.imageView_arrowUp);
layoutDetalhesExpanded.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
hora.setText(alarme.getHora());
estado.setChecked(alarme.isLigado());
cbRepetir.setChecked(alarme.isRepete());
arrowDown.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
arrowDown.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
arrowUp.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
layoutDetalhesExpanded.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
alarme.setCollapsed(false);
}
});
arrowUp.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
arrowUp.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
arrowDown.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
layoutDetalhesExpanded.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
alarme.setCollapsed(true);
}
});
editText.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
#Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
}
#Override
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
}
#Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
alarme.setMensagem(s.toString());
}
});
arrowDown.setVisibility(alarme.isCollapsed() ? View.VISIBLE : View.INVISIBLE);
arrowUp.setVisibility(alarme.isCollapsed() ? View.INVISIBLE : View.VISIBLE);
layoutDetalhesExpanded.setVisibility(alarme.isCollapsed() ? View.INVISIBLE : View.VISIBLE);
editText.setText(alarme.getMensagem());
return convertView;
}
I thought each item would have its size wrapped depending on the visible content, but I have this result instead:
This is the item when expanded:
https://imgur.com/gallery/oIv50dT
This is the item when collapsed:
https://imgur.com/gallery/dmzw5GU
I wanted the collapsed item to have its size wrapped to the content.

I am going to guess here that in your XML layout you have set a static height.
You need to set it to be wrap_content which allows for dynamic row heights.

I solved it by changing the visibility of the views from View.INVISIBLE to View.GONE.

Value overlap on Android Spinner

Has anyone encountered such an issue before? The new value of the spinner overlaps the old one instead of replacing it.
This happens on application startup. Additionally, I've found that it happens on my tablet, but not on my phones.
Relevant code:
spinnerSearchField.setSelection(sharedPref.getInt(
getString(R.string.lastChosenSpinnerValue), 0), false);
spinnerSearchField.setOnItemSelectedListener(
new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedPref.edit();
editor.putInt(getString(R.string.lastChosenSpinnerValue),
spinnerSearchField.getSelectedItemPosition());
editor.apply();
}
#Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {
// do nothing
}
});
My layout file:
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/mainLayout"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
android:layout_marginRight="20dp"
>
<TextView
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:text="#string/textViewSearchField"
/>
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/spinnerSearchField"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="30dp"
android:entries="#array/arraySearchFields"
/>
...
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>

EditText value is reversed

I've got an odd one. I'm trying to format some text while the user types into an EditText field. I am using the TextWatcher and responding to afterTextChanged event (code below). What is odd is after the first time this logic runs the text starts to become reversed. It seems that the Editable object contains the string backwards. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
_textWatcher = new TextWatcher()
{
#Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence charSequence, int i, int i2, int i3)
{
}
#Override
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence charSequence, int i, int i2, int i3)
{
}
#Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable editable)
{
Editable e = textView.getText();
String text = e.toString();
logger.d("[FormListAdapter][addTextChangedListener] Format Text: " + text);
Number numVal = FormFieldBusiness.ConvertStringToNumber(text, formField.GetFormFieldType());
String fText = FormFieldBusiness.GetFormattedValue(numVal, formField.GetFormFieldType());
editText.removeTextChangedListener(_textWatcher);
textView.setText(text);
editText.addTextChangedListener(_textWatcher);
}
};
editText.addTextChangedListener(_textWatcher);
* UPDATE *
In an attempt to help anyone out there who's looking at this here is my XML layout file.
As I mentioned before the text is correct until after the first the time setText method is called. After that the Editable object is reversed.

The issue is you are setting the text in the EditText field (even though you have removed the listener) you are listening for. this is causing the cursor to move to the beginning of the line, therefore making it type backwards
try changing from a TextWatcher to TextView.OnEditorActionListener and listen for the action key set on the EditText so when they hit the action key, it does your desired functionality.
add
android:imeOptions="actionDone"
to your button xml and assign it with
TextView.OnEditorActionListener editingActionListener = new TextView.OnEditorActionListener() {
#Override
public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
if ((actionId == EditorInfo.IME_NULL && event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) || actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) {
//do stuff where you set the text here
}
return true;
}
};
editText.setOnEditorActionListener(editingActionListener);
alternatively, you can use OnFocusChangeListener
View.OnFocusChangeListener focusChangeListener = new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
if (v.getClass().equals(EditText.class)) {
if (!hasFocus) {
//do your stuff here
}
}
}
};
editText.setOnFocusChangeListener(focusChangeListener);

Simply move the cursor to the correct position in your TextWatcher after setting the EditText content:
#Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable editable)
{
...
int position = editText.getSelectionStart();
editText.setText(text);
editText.setSelection(position);
...
}

Show Edit text on spinner item selected

I have a Spinner in my class with certain items. I have to display an EditText whose visibility I have set to "Invisible". I need to show this EditText when "Others" item is selected in the spinner.
Here is my code:-
Activity class:-

ETServiceType = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.ETServiceType);
ETServiceCost= (EditText)findViewById(R.id.ETServiceCost);
spinServiceType = (Spinner)findViewById(R.id.spinServiceType);
btnMaintenenceSave= (ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.btnMaintenenceSave);
btnMaintenanceClear = (ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.btnMaintenenceClear);
spinServiceType.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);
btnMaintenanceClear.setOnClickListener(this);
btnMaintenenceSave.setOnClickListener(this);
ArrayAdapter<String> serviceTypeAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(getApplicationContext(), R.array.service_type_array, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
serviceTypeAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
spinServiceType.setAdapter(serviceTypeAdapter);
}
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int servicePos, long id)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
spinnerServiceType = spinServiceType.getItemAtPosition(servicePos).toString();
if(spinnerServiceType.matches("Others"))
{
ETServiceType = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.ETServiceType);
ETServiceType.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
spinnerServiceType = ETServiceType.getText().toString();
}
serviceType = spinnerServiceType;
}
}

Thanks for any help.

spinnerServiceType = spinServiceType.getItemAtPosition(position).toString();
//if spinnerServiceType 's value is other
//then set visibility of textview visible put text watcher on it so u can get text when user finished ..if u dont want then u can use simple getText then change its visibility
//As u are setting your array value from resource you cant update it programmatically
//so first of all u have to take its array items in list . so u can update this list after user enter the value in edit text
}
