I need edittext with auto suggestion turned on.
For this I am using following in xml :
<EditText
android:id="#+id/edt_description"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#null"
android:hint="#string/description_album_hint"
android:imeOptions="actionNext"
android:inputType="textCapSentences|textAutoCorrect|textAutoComplete"
android:maxLines="2"
android:minLines="2"
android:singleLine="false"
android:textColor="#color/black"
android:textColorHint="#color/hint_color_light_gray" />
Even if I add "textCapSentences|textAutoCorrect|textAutoComplete" as inputType still there are no suggestions.
Adding Screenshot (this is what I need to implement):
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
For this purpose you need a subclass of EditText called AutoCompleteTextView. You can find an example here http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/controls/text.html#AutoComplete
If you want to get auto suggestions in top of your keypad, what ever you are following is correct. Additionally you can add android:autoText="true". The suggestion will show you all your previously entered words.
Else if you want to get suggestion for every letter you type, then you can use AutoCompleteTextView.
Here is the code, how you can use this.Ex - AutoCompleteTextView
Got it .....
just removing "textAutoComplete" from "textCapSentences|textAutoCorrect|textAutoComplete" worked for me.

How to disable auto suggestion with input type : textEmailAddress, while using like below the auto suggestion will appear, exactly want stop auto suggestion with email keyboard.

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:importantForAutofill="no"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
when using textVisiblePassword that input of keyboard "#" not shown.
Thanks in advance !
Add this one in your EditText -
android:inputType="textFilter|textEmailAddress|textNoSuggestions"
and remove android:importantForAutofill="no"
Can you try by adding textFilter property in your android:inputType?
android:inputType="textFilter|textEmailAddress|textVisiablePassword"
android:inputType="textNoSuggestions"
Android has great documentation, check the InputType section of TextViews here
android:importantForAutofill="no"
android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
These two lines worked for me.
I’m not sure it’s exactly what you were looking for, but I needed a way to keep the keyboard layout with the # and shortcuts, but avoid saving the email in the keyboard suggestions for privacy purposes, as it’s for a kiosk app.
In the end I managed it by using:
android:importantForAutofill="no"
android:inputType="textWebEmailAddress"
I worked with editText in Android, but when i want select,copy or paste text/number inside of ediTText it's impossible,that is to say, if I pressing (Long press) don't show the menu to select "paste" or anything.
The code from my xml file (EditText) is the next:
<com.rengwuxian.materialedittext.MaterialEditText
android:id="#+id/titulo_articulo_periodico"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="4dp"
android:maxLines="1"
android:inputType="text"
android:singleLine="true"
android:textIsSelectable="true"
android:hint="#string/periodico_hint1"
android:textColor="#color/text_color"
app:met_primaryColor="#color/refresco"
app:met_clearButton="true"/>
I work with "Material EditText" library (github: https://github.com/rengwuxian/MaterialEditText) but I don't see difference between my code and the owner code, my friend tell me than i need use onActionItemClicked in every editText, but with this code my Java code is too long. I don't know what do, I'm tired. :(
I think there is no short way of doing it. You have to use Clipboard Manager, And have a lengthy way of implementing the functionality. I am still looking for a simple solution to this. until then refer this link
https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/text/copy-paste.html
How can I display a text error with setError in an EditText not focusable? It's important that users don't modify this EditText, it'll be modified for the application. Maybe I have another option different than focusable=false?
Now, I have it:
<EditText
android:id="#+id/date"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clickable="true"
android:ems="10"
android:focusable="false"
android:inputType="text"
android:onClick="onClick" />
Thanks a lot!
Finally I think it's not possible to do... Because the first necessity is to block the text, doing it with focusable=false or with a TextView, and it also blocks the functionality setError.
An editText with focusable = false I can get a right drawable (the default red exclamation mark) but without text. For this reason I finally added the text with a Toast.
It's not completelly that I wanted, but it's the most similar.
Thanks for your help!
Just use TextView and if you have an error somewhere then show image with drawableRight.
Here's the example of doingit programmatically: https://stackoverflow.com/a/7380789/3864698
Would it be possible to have an edit text appear to be in focus but not not actually be in focus. I would like the bright blue underline on two or more of the edit texts in my UI but never have them in focus or have the blinking insertion point. I have tried android:focusable="false" but that makes it grayed out. I'v also tried out a number of other combination but can't seem to find one that works.
Try to use
setSelected(true);
I think it will help
Edit:
To summarize I think you cannot really setSelection on multiple edittext at the same time but you can customize your editext by giving them custom background using selectors so they will look like selected.
You can accomplish it by using these tools that allow quick resources generators.

Try this:
<EditText ... >
<requestFocus />
</EditText>
Hope this helps.
Programatically you can "request focus" to your view:
myEditText.requestFocus();
or via xml:
<EditText>
<requestFocus />
</EditText>
