I have a custom dialog which is a DialogFragment. This dialog have a EditText and my own keyboard view so I don't want to use the default virtual keyboard.
I hide the virtual keyboard everytime user touch the EditText:
edtAmount.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
#Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
v.onTouchEvent(event);
View view = this.getDialog().getCurrentFocus();
if (view != null) {
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getActivity()
.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(view.getWindowToken(),0);
}
return true;
}
});
But because the system still call the virtual keyboard to show (Before is force to hide it), then system move my dialog up and down very quickly. This is not good.
Can someone help me to avoid the dialog pushed up like this, just keep it stay still?
PS: I tried in Manifest:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustNothing"
But seem like not work.
Thank you very much.
EDIT
I want to keep the cursor so I find the solution in this thread:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/14184958/2961402
Hope this help some one.
This can only done when you extends the EditText from your custom EditText, please use the below code for custom EditText which never open Soft Keyboard ever...!
public class DisableSoftKeyBoardEditText extends EditText {
public DisableSoftKeyBoardEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
#Override
public boolean onCheckIsTextEditor() {
return false;
}
}
Try this code. In my app it work perfectly
getActivity().getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_HIDDEN);

Is an edittext cursor supposed to continue blinking after the soft keyboard is closed or is this a result of testing on an emulator and wouldn't happen on an actual device? -- as pointed out by the second post in this discussion
Update:
I know that the edittexts still have the cursor blinking because they're still in focus -- logged a message whenever edittext lost focus, but message was never logged when soft keyboard closed.
Update:
I've tried doing:
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
super.onBackPressed();
getCurrentFocus().clearFocus();
}
So that every time the keyboard is closed, the EditText currently in focus loses that focus and onFocusChanged() is called. The problem is that onBackPressed() isn't called when the back button is pressed when the keyboard is up. I know this because I put a toast in onBackPressed(), and no toast shows when the back button is pressed whilst the keyboard is up.
First create a custom Edit text. Below is the example which has a call back when keyboard back is pressed to dismiss the keyboard
public class EdittextListner extends EditText {
private KeyImeChange keyImeChangeListener;
public EdittextListner(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public void setKeyImeChangeListener(KeyImeChange listener) {
keyImeChangeListener = listener;
}
public interface KeyImeChange {
public boolean onKeyIme(int keyCode, KeyEvent event);
}
#Override
public boolean onKeyPreIme(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if (keyImeChangeListener != null) {
return keyImeChangeListener.onKeyIme(keyCode, event);
}
return false;
}
}
Secondly change your EditText to EdittextListner in you layout file.
Finally do the following
mLastNameEditText.setKeyImeChangeListener(new EdittextListner.KeyImeChange() {
#Override
public boolean onKeyIme(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
mLastNameEditText.clearFocus();
return true;
}
});
This worked for me. Hope this helps
Edittext is a View which accept input from user, so it is not related with keyborad open or close, when user will click on edittext, that edittext will get focus and cursor will start to blink for taking input,
So you can do one thing as when you are closing keyboard at the same time you can also set visibility of cursor for that edittext so it will stop to blink,
For that you need to write below line when you hide keyboard.
editTextObject.setCursorVisible(false);
This will stope cursor to blink.
As you said, the blinking cursor in the EditText is related to the EditText having focus, but showing or hiding the soft keyboard has no correlation to a View gaining or losing focus. Any View (EditText or otherwise) can be focused independent of whether or not a soft keyboard is showing and there is nothing intrinsic to EditText that would make it behave any differently.
If you want an EditText to lose focus whenever the soft keyboard is hidden, you will need to implement this functionality yourself by listening for changes in the soft keyboard visibility and updating the EditText as a result.
The only way to know keyboard is disappeared is to override
OnglobalLayout and check the height.
Based on that event you can "setCursorVisible(false)" on your edit text
For more information, check this Link.
RelativeLayout mainLayout = findViewById(R.layout.main_layout); // You must use the layout root
InputMethodManager im = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Service.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
/*
Instantiate and pass a callback
*/
SoftKeyboard softKeyboard;
softKeyboard = new SoftKeyboard(mainLayout, im);
softKeyboard.setSoftKeyboardCallback(new SoftKeyboard.SoftKeyboardChanged()
{
#Override
public void onSoftKeyboardHide()
{
// Code here
EditText.clearFocus();
}
#Override
public void onSoftKeyboardShow()
{
// Code here
}
});
/*
Open or close the soft keyboard easily
*/
softKeyboard.openSoftKeyboard();
softKeyboard.closeSoftKeyboard();
/* Prevent memory leaks:
*/
#Override
public void onDestroy()
{
super.onDestroy();
softKeyboard.unRegisterSoftKeyboardCallback();
}
try this:
public class EditTextBackEvent extends EditText {
private EditTextImeBackListener mOnImeBack;
public EditTextBackEvent(Context context) {
super(context);
}
public EditTextBackEvent(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public EditTextBackEvent(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}
#Override
public boolean onKeyPreIme(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK && event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_UP) {
if (mOnImeBack != null) mOnImeBack.onImeBack(this, this.getText().toString());
}
return super.dispatchKeyEvent(event);
}
public void setOnEditTextImeBackListener(EditTextImeBackListener listener) {
mOnImeBack = listener;
}
public interface EditTextImeBackListener {
void onImeBack(EditTextBackEvent ctrl, String text);
}
}
in your layout:
<yourpackagename.EditTextBackEvent
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
and in your fragment:
edittext.setOnEditTextImeBackListener(new EditTextBackEvent.EditTextImeBackListener()
{
#Override
public void onImeBack(EditTextBackEvent ctrl, String text)
{
edittext.clearfocus();
}
});
Try keeping a view in your layout which is focusable above your editText.
<View
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true" />
This should work as the blank focusable view should catch focus and not your edittext.
I'm currently developing a calculator app where I have made a custom keypad and would like to hide the virtual keyboard. I have found solutions where I can hide it, but the cursor also gets hidden. The functionality I want is the same as the com.android.calculator2 app. I have looked at the source code of that but I still can't get it to work.
I think you are getting it wrong. There is a much easier solution(and a more obvious one).
Make the EditText uneditable.
Bind to the EditText in your code (findViewById)
In your buttons, get the text and add to the current string and then display it.
Eg.
say you pressed the '1' button.
in your one.setOnclickListener(), do this:
String S=EditText.getText()+"1";
EditText.setText(s);
Edit:
If you just want to hide the keyboard while keeping the cursor, try this code:
EditText editText = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.edit_text);
editText.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
#Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
v.onTouchEvent(event);
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)v.getContext().getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
if (imm != null) {
imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(v.getWindowToken(), 0);
}
return true;
}
});
I want to do the following :
I have an edit text and want to be able to select text from it without showing the soft keyboard and without editing it's content, just to select text to use it in another screen
N.B. this edit text is inside dialog box that shown above the activity, the current scenario that it show up the keyboard when open the dialog
I have tried the following
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden"
I have also used the following code :
editText.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
#Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
v.onTouchEvent(event);
hideSoftKetboard (v);
return true;
}
});
private void hideSoftKetboard (View v){
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)v.getContext().getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
if (imm != null) {
imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(v.getWindowToken(), 0);
}
}
can anyone help please ?
Use setInputType(0); will solve the problem
What I want to do is this: I have an EditText and when the user click on it, the user can move the caret position, same as the EditText, but without showing the keyboard.
I've tried with setInputType(0); and it hides completly the keyboard but the cursor doesn't appears.
Is there any way to do this?
Thank's
The following tricks works for me. Caret and soft keyboard both active onTouch event of editText. So Call touch event and then hide the keyboard manually.
myEditText.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
#Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
final boolean ret = dialerNumber.onTouchEvent(event);
final InputMethodManager imm = ((InputMethodManager) myContext
.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE));
try{
imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(myEditText.getApplicationWindowToken(), 0);
}catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
return ret;
});
I haven't tried suppressing the keyboard altogether, but I have hidden the soft keyboard manually before using the InputMethodManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow method.
Does this work?
getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN)
How do I turn off the IME-functionality of an EditText?
Or: How do I avoid the display of the IME-keyboard?
I have a layout where my special keyboard sits below the EditText so there's no need to show the IME. Please understand that I cannot implement my keyboard as IME as it is specific for this very EditText and using it in any other context would only cause problems.
I tried to use
getWindow().setSoftInputMode(LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);
in the onCreate() of the activity, but that doesn't seem to do anything in this situation.
Think I found a way to do it... subclass EditText and override onCheckIsTextEditor() to return false:
public class EditTextEx extends EditText {
public EditTextEx(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
#Override
public boolean onCheckIsTextEditor() {
return false;
}
}
I've tested it and I can't get the soft keyboard to show at all.
editText.setInputType(EditorInfo.TYPE_NULL);
While trying to get it working I also tried:
inputField.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
getWindow().setSoftInputMode(LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);
}
});
inputField.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
#Override
public boolean onTouch(View view, MotionEvent event) {
getWindow().setSoftInputMode(LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);
return false;
}
});
Both get called, but neither hide the IME-pop-up.
