I want to make a EditTextLayout, but I want a different text for label and hint.
For example : The label's text is "Phone Number", and the hint text is
"+6281342134".
Is it possible?
My code is:
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/phone_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/phone"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="+6281342134"
android:inputType="phone" />
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
I took a similar approach to Rehan
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/edit_text"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
editText.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
if (hasFocus) {
inputLayout.setHint("We did it!");
} else {
inputLayout.setHint("Testing 123");
}
}
});
The animation was good enough for me without disabling the animation:
Here's how I'm doing it without code (just XML), while allowing both a label and a placeholder at the same time, as in the Material Design guidelines.
Layout XML:
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="My Label Text">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#android:id/input"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColorHint="#drawable/hint_selector"
android:hint="Placeholder Text"/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
Color Selector XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_focused="true" android:color="?android:textColorHint" />
<item android:color="#android:color/transparent" />
</selector>
The key here is to just make it transparent by default, and only show the placeholder text when it has focus. No need to change color either, since this will respect any custom theme in place, as well as light and dark themes.
You can use these attribute:
android:hint: for the label
placeholderText: for the placeholder text inside the EditText
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/phone_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:hint="Phone Number"
app:placeholderText="+6281342134"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/phone"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:hint="+6281342134"
android:inputType="phone" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
If the placeholder should be displayed also when the text field is empty just add the expandedHintEnabled="false":
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
app:expandedHintEnabled="false"
Note: the expandedHintEnabled requires at least the version 1.3.0-alpha03.
You can simply do it by this way:
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/phone_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Phone Number">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/phone"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="+6281342134"
android:inputType="phone"/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
But this will result overlapping of both hints i.e. Phone Number and +6281342134. So you need to implement OnFocusChangeListener for this. (Not so good solution but it'll work for you).
In your layout, add hint to TextInputLayout only. I have set hintAnimationEnabled to false because I think the animation might won't look smooth with different hints.
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/phone_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Phone Number"
app:hintAnimationEnabled="false">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/phone"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="phone"/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
In your java file, create OnFocusChangeListener:
private View.OnFocusChangeListener onPhoneNumberFocusChangeListener = new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
if (hasFocus) {
((EditText)v).setHint("+6281342134");
} else {
((EditText)v).setHint("");
}
}
};
and set it to your EditText
phone.setOnFocusChangeListener(onPhoneNumberFocusChangeListener);
I tried setting the floating label using android:hint="#string/EMAIL". So for the hint inside the box, I used app:placeholderText="e.g. someone#mailbox.com".
To have a floating action button enabled all the time you have to use requestFocus().
Go into the xml text editting mode and add this to the edittext:
android:label="Phone Number"
android:hint="+6281342134"

I am referring this: Outlined Edit Text from Material Design where the answer relates to the outdated support libraries rather than androidx.
How to achieve creating the OutlinedBox with the hint on the top left frame rather than inside the box? Have spent the entire morning unsuccessful. What I want is this:
My graddle:
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.1.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.1.0'
My app Theme:
style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.NoActionBar"
My layout:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/textField"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:hint="Full name" >
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
My result (the frame is continuous, without the hint embedded in the top left corner):
Try below code:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/etlFirst"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
app:hintTextColor="#color/colorPrimary"
android:focusable="true"
android:hint="Label">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/etFirst"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColorHint="#color/colorAccent"
android:hint="PlaceHolder"/>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
To displaying two hints try below code in .java file:
etFirst.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
if (hasFocus) {
etFirst.setHint("Place Holder");
} else {
etFirst.setHint("Label");
}
}
});
Output for above code is:
I hope this helps you
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="5dp">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/etProposalTitle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:fontFamily="#font/medium"
android:hint="Title."
android:inputType="text"
android:textSize="18sp" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
If you want to display at the same time the hint label on top left and a placeholder text inside the EditText you can use:
app:placeholderText: to add a placeholder text in the EditText
android:hint: to add a floating label
They can work together:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:hint="Label"
app:placeholderText="Placeholder Text"
Note: it requires at least the version 1.2.0-alpha03.
I am currently using Material Design TextInputLayout OutlinedBox as shown below:
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/myEditText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Title"
android:inputType="text"/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
I am trying to add a dropdown box Spinner under my TextInputEditText, and would like to keep the same styling: OutlinedBox.
I see that dropdowns seem to be supported in Material Design, Material Design Text Fields. As shown on here for the Area:
I am currently using a Spinner to generate the Dropdown.
<Spinner
style="#style/Widget.AppCompat.Spinner.DropDown"
android:id="#+id/option"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:dropDownWidth="match_parent" />
It doesn't seem possible to add a dropdown following the OutlinedBox design. Is there a library out there that would allow me to make this happen, or is there a better way to implement this within Material Design?
I am assuming you want to have an Exposed drop-down menu inside the TextInputLayout I had the same problem, what you can do is use AutoCompleteTextView inside your TextInputLayout as in the following in the XML. here's an example of how I approached the issue.
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:paddingRight="30dp"
android:paddingEnd="30dp"
tools:ignore="RtlSymmetry"
android:layout_margin="5dp">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="30dp"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:srcCompat="#drawable/ic_location_city_black_24dp"
android:layout_gravity="center"
/>
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.FilledBox.ExposedDropdownMenu"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Type"
android:orientation="horizontal"
>
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:id="#+id/filled_exposed_dropdown"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="none"/>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
You will also need an item layout resource to populate the dropdown popup. The example below provides a layout that follows the Material Design guidelines.
res/layout/dropdown_menu_popup_item.xml
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="16dp"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:maxLines="1"
android:textAppearance="?attr/textAppearanceSubtitle1"/>
In your class add the following code depending on what you want.
String[] type = new String[] {"Bed-sitter", "Single", "1- Bedroom", "2- Bedroom","3- Bedroom"};
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter =
new ArrayAdapter<>(
this,
R.layout.dropdown_menu_popup_item,
type);
AutoCompleteTextView editTextFilledExposedDropdown =
findViewById(R.id.filled_exposed_dropdown);
editTextFilledExposedDropdown.setAdapter(adapter);
incase this doesn't help kindly check Exposed Dropdown Menus in material design page.
[https://material.io/develop/android/components/menu/][1]
This is my first answer on stack overflow I hope it helps.
Just use the TextInputLayout included in the Material Components Library with the style Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox.ExposedDropdownMenu.
Something like:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox.ExposedDropdownMenu"
android:hint="Hint text"
...>
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:id="#+id/outlined_exposed_dropdown_editable"
.../>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
I believe that this document isn't showing a Spinner at all. I think it's showing a TextInputLayout with a dropdown icon.
In the Anatomy section, at the Icons subsection, it says
5. Dropdown icon
A dropdown arrow indicates that a text field has a nested selection component.
Now, how you provide the "nested selection component" I'm not sure...
From the other answers, "AutoCompleteTextView" is the answer but it does not do the same as a spinner does.
Here is my solution. Just put normal edittext inside TextInputLayout and make this editText disabled for inputs. And put a 0dp,0dp spinner for normal spinner working.
Don't make spinner visibility=gone, because if it's gone, spinner listener does not work
layout.xml
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/textInputLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="#dimen/_10dp"
android:theme="#style/ThemeOverlay.App.TextInputLayout">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/editText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:drawableEnd="#drawable/arrow_down_pacific_blue"
android:focusable="false"
android:hint="şehir"
android:inputType="none" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/spinner"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:spinnerMode="dialog"
tools:listitem="#layout/general_spinner_item" />
java code
set click listener to edittext for trigger spinner click
findViewById(R.id.editText).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
spinner.performClick();
}
});
in spinner listener, set edittext text from selected item,
spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
selectedCity= (City) parent.getAdapter().getItem(position);
editText.setText(selectedCity.getScreenText());
RDALogger.debug("selectedObject " + selectedCity);
}
#Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {
}
});
and the result view
I am using the below material libs to get spinner
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.2.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.2.1'
Here is my layout look like
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox.ExposedDropdownMenu"
android:layout_width="500dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="#string/select_wifi"
app:hintTextAppearance="#style/hintStyle"
app:startIconDrawable="#drawable/wifi">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.MaterialAutoCompleteTextView
style="#style/textInputEdittext"
android:inputType="none" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
Check out this image for the spinner
It seems like they actually use a TextInputLayout wrapping up an AutoCompleteTextView. Note that they are already the material Components theme [https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/blob/master/docs/getting-started.md].
See:
https://material.io/design/components/menus.html#exposed-dropdown-menu
https://material.io/develop/android/components/menu/
I solved my problem using this:
in XML:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/layout"
style="#style/AppTheme.ExposedDropdownMenu"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:id="#+id/my_spinner_dropdown"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
in code:
layout.keyListener=null
ArrayAdapter(it, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, list).also {
adapter ->
layout.setAdapter(adapter)
}
Credits:How to make EditText not editable through XML in Android?
You can check my Medium article where I introduce a custom MaterialSpinner which supports two-way data binding and selection tracking. The resulting layout can look as simple as this:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/input_layout"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="#string/selection_hint"
app:startIconDrawable="#drawable/selection_icon"
app:boxBackgroundMode="outline"
app:endIconMode="#{viewModel.items == null || viewModel.items.size() != 0 ? TextInputLayout.END_ICON_DROPDOWN_MENU : TextInputLayout.END_ICON_NONE}">
<com.example.MaterialSpinner
android:id="#+id/items"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:items="#{viewModel.items}"
app:selectedPosition="#={viewModel.selectedItemPosition}"
app:emptyText="#string/selection_no_item_text" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
I know its too late to answer this question, but somebody like me stuck in issue like this or similar may find this very useful. Visit this repo its perfect solution as requested. This library support all material TextInputLayout styles. Thanks to "Mamoon Al-hawamdeh" for this amazing library.
All this answers are helpful but the one important note that is if you set app:endIconMode attribute, your Drop down menu not work.
Just change inputType from "text" to "none"
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/myEditText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Title"
android:inputType="none"/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
I am facing a weird issue, I have a InputTextLayout and an EditText in it, and I am trying to achieve something like this (shown in image below) (Image from material design guidlines: https://material.io/guidelines/components/text-fields.html#text-fields-layout), where there are two separate hints. I am doing this by adding android:hint to both layouts. This works fine, but when the focus moves away from this, the "label" moves down and overlaps the "placeholder" text. (Only when the user has not given any input and the edit text is empty - both hints overlap). Any pointers on how to fix this?
As a requirement I need both hints to be there, and the "Label" should not move down on focus change. Both hints should remain in their position
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Label">
<android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatEditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Placeholder"
android:inputType="textCapWords"
/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
Now the material components (alpha03) have support for placeholder text:
dependencies {
// ...
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.2.0-alpha03'
// ...
}
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
...
app:placeholderText="Placeholder text">
Perfect One!!!
xml code
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/inputLayoutPhone"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="24dp"
android:hint="Phone Number">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/edtPhone"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="+91"
android:inputType="phone" />
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
Kotlin code
edtPhone.hint=""
edtPhone.onFocusChangeListener = View.OnFocusChangeListener { _, hasFocus ->
inputLayoutPhone.isHintEnabled = hasFocus
if(hasFocus){
edtPhone.hint="+91"
}else{
edtPhone.hint= "Phone Number"
}
}
Java code
edtPhone.setHint("");
edtPhone.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View view, boolean hasFocus) {
if (hasFocus){
edtPhone.setHint("+91");
}else{
edtPhone.setHint("Phone Number");
}
}
});
As i know, we can't do as your wish.
Because, TextInputLayout is designed to float the hint once it gets focused So, once it went up nothing will be there in the place holder. We can do your requirement with slight changes as below.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center"
tools:context="com.stackoverflow.MainActivity">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:text="Label"
android:textColor="#color/colorPrimary" />
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
app:hintEnabled="false">
<android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatEditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?actionBarSize"
android:hint="Place Holder"
/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
.
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Placeholder">
<android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatEditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="textCapWords"
/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
Use the code below. It should work fine.
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:textColorHint="#color/white">
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Placeholder"
android:inputType="text"
android:textColor="#color/white"
android:textColorHint="#color/white" />
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
Remove hint from either AppcompatEditText or TextInputLayout
use android:hint="" only in one either AppcompatEditText or TextInputLayout
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
>
<android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatEditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"

How to i remove this overlay red exclamation mark when call setError() ?
[Update the style]
<style name="TextAppearance.App.TextInputLayout" parent="#android:style/TextAppearance">
<item name="android:textColor">#color/editTextHintColor</item>
</style>
Use setError(CharSequence error, Drawable icon) method. Set the drawable as null:
editText.setError("Pls provide email", null);
TextInputLayout is now part of the new material package. Here is an update on how I got a password field with validation working:
Layout:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/loginPasswordInputLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="#dimen/grid"
android:hint="#string/onboarding_hint_password"
app:errorEnabled="true"
app:passwordToggleContentDescription="#string/onboarding_toggle_description_password"
app:passwordToggleEnabled="true"
app:passwordToggleTint="?colorAccent">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/loginPasswordInputText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="start|center"
android:inputType="textPassword"
android:lines="1"
tools:text="#string/onboarding_hint_password" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
Setting the error message and hiding the icon in code can then be achieved with the following:
loginPasswordInputLayout.error = errorMessage
// Error icon overlaps with password visibility toggle, so remove it:
loginPasswordInputLayout.setErrorIconDrawable(0)
This way you get the red (or colour of your choice) text and underline, but the password visibility toggle icon stays fully accessible.
I think this is a more optimized answer if you are working with TextInputLayout.
What I did was took advantage of the error and I just rest the Text input layout to its default state after 2 seconds.
otpIn.setError(obj.getString("status"));
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
otpIn.setError(null);
}
},2000);
I want to set the hint with java in EditText(which is in TextInputLayout).
Code used for setting hint:
aET = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.aET);
aET.setHint("h?");
But even when edittext is focused, Hint is displayed twice(inside edittext also).
Please let me know if anyone had faced and found some workaround
when editText is focused...
when editText is not focused..
EDIT[10th July 2015]:
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/aTIL"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/aET" />
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
This problem occurs because the hint from the xml is passed on to the TextInputLayout, so it can be displayed as a floating hint. But when you set it programatically, the hint is set to the EditText, which then results in two hints (one from the xml that is a floating hint and one you set programatically and is a normal EditText hint). If you wish to change the floating hint, you must set the hint on TextInputLayout.
You code will then look like this:
aTIL = (TextInputLayout) findViewById(R.id.aTIL);
aTIL.setHint("h?");
I found the solution !
In your EditText add
android:textColorHint="#android:color/transparent"
And in the code set the hint from the EditText
aET.setHint("h?");
The hint in your editText is hidden and the hint from the TextInputLayout is shown.
EDIT :
Other solution (The best)
Update Graddle with the new version of android:design
compile 'com.android.support:design:22.2.1'
I also had this issue.
when I needed to update the hint, I (erroneously) did that on both the EditText and the TextInputLayout, which resulted in a blur.
solution was to not call EditText.setHint() but only TextInputLayout.setHint()
You can go by using two hint texts. One for the TextInputLayout and other for the edit text inside it.Below is the reference:
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
style="#style/editText_layout"
android:id="#+id/entryScreenProduction_editText_percentCompleted_layout"
android:hint="%Completed">
<EditText
android:id="#+id/entryScreenProduction_editText_percentCompleted"
style="#style/editTextNotes"
android:gravity="center_vertical|top"
android:inputType="numberDecimal"
android:textAlignment="viewStart"
android:hint="0.0"/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
But this has a problem. The UI will look like below. The hints will overlap.
To avoid the above ugly UI, you have to control this from program.Set the hint text of the EditText only when there is focus on the field, else remove the hint text.
android:hint="0.0"
Remove the above line from the layout xml file and do as below:
m_editText_completed = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.entryScreenProduction_editText_percentCompleted);
m_editText_completed.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View view, boolean b) {
if(b){
m_editText_completed.setHint("0.0");
}
else {
m_editText_completed.setHint("");
}
}
});
I hope this solves you issue. God Speed !!!
first compile dependency
compile 'com.rengwuxian.materialedittext:library:2.1.3'
add this in your xml
<com.rengwuxian.materialedittext.MaterialEditText
android:id="#+id/etId"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="70dip"
android:hint="Hint goes here"
android:textColor = "#000000"
android:textSize="15sp"
app:met_accentTypeface="fonts/yourcustomfonts.ttf"
app:met_floatingLabel="normal"
app:met_floatingLabelTextColor="#ff0000"
app:met_floatingLabelTextSize="15sp"
app:met_hideUnderline="true"
app:met_textColorHint="#ff00ff"
app:met_typeface="fonts/yourcustomfont.ttf"/>
add xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
Simple use this programmatically it's working for me
TextInputLayout til = new TextInputLayout(this);
til.setHintTextAppearance(android.R.style.TextAppearance_Large);
You can customize the style as i mention below...
<style name="TextInputLayout" parent="#android:style/TextAppearance">
<item name="android:textColor">#color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="android:textColorHint">#color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="android:textSize">23sp</item>
</style>
TextInputLayout til = new TextInputLayout(this);
til.setHint("hai);
til.setHintTextAppearance(R.style.TextInputLayout);
In my case, I follow this line of code in kotlin
kotlin code
val edPasswordSignIn = findViewById<TextInputEditText>(R.id.edPasswordSignIn)
edPasswordSignIn.setHint("Password")
edPasswordSignIn.setOnFocusChangeListener { v, hasFocus ->
if (hasFocus){
edPasswordSignIn.setHint("Password")
}
else
edPasswordSignIn.setHint("")
}
XML code
<!--TextInput layout which acts as a wrapper to the edit text-->
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColorHint="#f29358"
app:hintTextAppearance="#style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Large"
app:passwordToggleEnabled="true"
app:passwordToggleTint="#color/colorPrimary"
app:boxStrokeWidth="0dp"
app:boxStrokeWidthFocused="0dp"
android:scrollbarSize="25dp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
android:gravity="fill_vertical"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent">
<!--Using the TextInputEditText,which is
same as the edit text,but remember-->
<!--that we need to use TextInputEditText
with TextInputLayout-->
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/edPasswordSignIn"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#null"
android:backgroundTint="#color/white"
android:gravity="center|left"
android:inputType="textPassword"
android:paddingTop="-2dp"
android:paddingBottom="-1dp"
android:textSize="#dimen/_11sdp" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
before enter the text
After the enter the text
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/textInputLayout"
app:hintEnabled="false"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/textField"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:hint="Hint" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
app:hintEnabled="false"
This is enough to hide the default label.
