I have a "has_groups_fragment" fragment, and it has an EditText element.
When I try to click on it, the keyboard is not responding.
the layout is the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/has_groups"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#drawable/ft_background"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/searchGroupsArea"
android:layout_width="350dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<EditText
android:id="#+id/inputGroupSearch"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="40dp"
android:layout_weight="0.86"
android:clickable="true"
android:ems="10"
android:hint="Search a group..."
android:inputType="textVisiblePassword"
android:textIsSelectable="true" >
<requestFocus />
</EditText>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/magnifyingGlass"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:src="#drawable/search_icon" />
</LinearLayout>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/groupsList"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="407dp"
android:layout_weight="1.52"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice" />
</LinearLayout>
Any advices?
Thanks a lot!
I believe the following attribute is the problem:
android:textIsSelectable="true"
When this is set to true for an EditText View, it allows text in the EditText to be selected, but it disallows editing of the text, which is why the keyboard doesn't show.
If you just want to allow normal copy/paste procedures, you don't need to set this.
I think you might have forgotten to add this to your activity, in your AndroidManifest.xml file:
<activity android:name="your_activity_name"
...
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
...>
More information
Try removing both android:clickable and android:textIsSelectable attributes

In my Android application, I have ListView, with header contains 2 editText. When I try to focus on lower editText, the keyboard shows up, and changes focus to upper editText. Header layout xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent">
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/name"
android:hint="Title"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"/>
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:nextFocusUp="#id/name"
android:inputType="text"
android:hint="Wordpack description"
android:id="#+id/description"
android:layout_below="#+id/name" />
<Button
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/description"
android:inputType="text"
android:id="#+id/locale"
android:text="Select language"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Seems like ListView is taking focus and giving it to the first child when you tap on it. Check out this answer. From the gist of it, you need to add the following in your activity on the manifest:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
And add this to your ListView:
android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants"
I am working on an app and have a problem.
I have an vieww like the image below with an image and an edittext field the right position. But when i click on the edittext field and it gets the focus it pushes the other view up.
I have the full screen flag and if i dont use that it works perfect and the image keeps theire position and dont pushed up. I need that with full screen flag.
Is there someone who have some example or can help me. I have used the 'windowSoftInputMode' with all the posibles values.
Here my layout code and examples how it now works and how it needs to be.

When i click in the edittext field i want my view to react as below:
But when the edittext gots focus it pushes everything up like below:
Does someone know how to solve this with the fullscreen flag on?
Thanks.
User this line of code in your Manifest.xml. In the activity where the problem is occuring
<activity
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustNothing">
</activity>
Add the below line in your manifest file in activity tag:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
and add ScrollView in your layout file like this:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="top"
android:fillViewport="true"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:scrollbarStyle="insideOverlay"
android:scrollbars="vertical|none" >
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<!-- layout for images -->
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/imageview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:gravity="top" >
<ImageView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/image"
android:contentDescription="TODO"/>
</RelativeLayout>
<!-- layout for edit text -->
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:gravity="bottom"
android:layout_alignTop="#id/imageview"
>
<EditText
android:id="#+id/tekstbox"
android:imeOptions="flagNoExtractUi"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="text" />
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
</ScrollView>
</RelativeLayout>
Add the below line in your manifest file in activity tag:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan|stateHidden"
How can I format a header, a list, and an EditText so that the EditText is a fixed single line and always visible?
Here is my layout with only one list entry - EditText fills the rest of the screen which looks bad.
Here is the layout with several list entries - the soft keyboard hides the text being typed. I was typing in Wayne.
I have tried a various Linear and Relative layouts. Here is my current Layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/select_child_header"
style="#style/headerStyle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:background="#color/start_blue"
android:text="Which child did you take a picture of?" />
<fragment
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/modchild_fragment"
android:name="com.chex.control.ChildList"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/select_child_header"
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true" >
</fragment>
<EditText
android:id="#+id/new_child"
style="#style/editTextStyle"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_below="#id/modchild_fragment"
android:hint="new child name"
android:inputType="text"
android:singleLine="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
I appreciate any advice on how to format this screen.
For this you have a two options one is In textview there is a tag called android:singleLine="true" if you do like this the text comes in a single line and it miss the some text and show some dots..
And another way is you have to decrease the fontsize.. by using this tag..android:textSize="3sp"
Try this way
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/select_child_header"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:text="Which child did you take a picture of?" />
<fragment
android:id="#+id/modchild_fragment"
android:name="com.chex.control.ChildList"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true" >
</fragment>
<EditText
android:id="#+id/new_child"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_below="#id/modchild_fragment"
android:hint="new child name"
android:inputType="text"
android:singleLine="true" />
</LinearLayout>
Set
android:ellipsize=end
android:singleLine="true"
Change the order and positioning of your elements:
add first the header on top
add the bottom edittext
add the fragment in-between
Something like:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/select_child_header"
style="#style/headerStyle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:background="#color/start_blue"
android:text="Which child did you take a picture of?" />
<EditText
android:id="#+id/new_child"
style="#style/editTextStyle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:hint="new child name"
android:inputType="text"
android:singleLine="true" />
<fragment
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/modchild_fragment"
android:name="com.chex.control.ChildList"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_above="#+id/new_child"
android:layout_below="#id/select_child_header"
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true" >
</fragment>
</RelativeLayout>
Add
android:maxLines="1"
to your EditText, to get desired number of lines .
You can set the static height to the Fragment. So that if your list item say for example, one or more than 5 also, your edit text constitutes the bottom layer of fragment.
Also, you can set android:singleLine="true" property to edittext.
I have few editText in ScrollView. If there are many editTexts, and they exceed the display, everything works fine, but if they doesnt, and soft keyboard is opened, I cant scroll it(keyboard covers few of them). My layout:
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
>
<EditText
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
<EditText
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
<EditText
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
<EditText
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
<EditText
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
Any suggestions?
I added this field in the ScrollView tag:
android:isScrollContainer="false"
You can use windowSoftInputMode attribute for your activity and set it to "adjustResize". This will make room for your soft keyboard.
<activity android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" />
You may need to change the "windowSoftInputMode" for the activity in your manifest file:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
I would try that.
I have the following layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_above="#+id/edittext">
<TextView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:text="line1"/>
<TextView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:text="line2"/>
<TextView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:text="line3"/>
</LinearLayout>
<EditText
android:id="#id/edittext"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_margin="5dp"
android:text="test"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:imeOptions="flagNoExtractUi"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
and in landscape on a Nexus one it looks like:
Is there a way to fix this, but keep flag flagNoExtractUi ?
Define <activity> inside Android manifest like:
<activity android:name=".TodoEdit"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize">
You can add a ScrollView so that when appears the keyboard, it scrolls automatically to make the view fully visible.
It seems to be a bug in Android but I found a solution! Just replace android:imeOptions="flagNoExtractUi" with android:imeOptions="flagNoFullscreen" and everything will work now.
