I have a ViewFlipper that hold a TextEdit that fills the parent.
When i swipe on the TextEdit it pops the keyboard to enter text, but i want to flip the view on swipe.
How can i implement this functionality?
Should i implement Gesture detection for the EditText or is there a way to ignore or pass the touch event to the parent?
Thank you.
If You set the Layout of Your EditText View to Match_Parent, then there is no possibility, to touch besides the view, so it automatically opens the keyboard. What You can do is to minimize the EditText and center it inside the ViewFlipper, so there is a little bit place besides the view. Another solution is to disable EditText on your ViewFlippers Gesture Event and enable it if the event has done. But I didn´t try this, it´s just an idea.

I have an EditText. When I click on it, the input keyboard shows up with the EditText directly above it. I want the keyboard to show up a little bit further down at another View, as if the keyboard is focusing on that. Is there a way to handle this?
My use case is I have two EditTexts and a Button in vertical LinearLayout. I want it so that when I click on either of the EditTexts, the keyboard will popup and still show all three Views.
Best practice, you won't want that, i.e showing all views while the keyboard is showing. This will force android to squeeze the views when there isn't enough space.
Best option is try adding paddingBottom to your EditText an example being android:paddingBottom="15dp" This should align the keyboard 15 pixels below your EditText.
You could also use ScrollView as suggested above which allows android to auto handle vertical scrolling for you.
I have a android app and with several Textviews inside linear layyout which is inside scrollview. On a button click I can bring focus and animate any textView (like move left to right). But What I want is, On Scrolling, if a TextView has Focus, animation for this textView should start. Just like this website.
I have an idea, which is: If scroll changes, check textview.hasFocus(), if true then startAnimation. But I don't know which method to use for checking 'if page scrolled'? I don't even know if this is right approach? Please help.
I have a listview and button in a scrollview. When i scroll both list and button loses focus. When i tap on button it did not work but next time i tap it works i think button loses focus and focus is towards scrollview how to handle this please help
Never put ListView inside a ScrollView. ListView handles scrolling, and wrapping it in a ScrollView can cause problems with focus, touch-events etc. If you want other Views added to the top or bottom of you list, simply use ListView.addHeaderView() or ListView.addFooterView()
Scroll view can have only one child, put your button and listview in common layout and try out.
I want to use an EditText to let the user edit input on different positions of a Scrollview (like cells in a spreadsheet). When the softkeyboard is invoked, it moves the screen only as long as the Edittext is on its original location, that was given in the Layout.xml. As soon as I change something like size, location, background, the invoked Keyboard does not move the screen, but covers the Edittext when it is in the way. Same when I use adjustResize.
Is there a solution beside adding an separate EditText on every possible opsition?
Any help welcome.
Its all about the focus of the view, things will work when system know which view have the focus, in scrollview case the focus is on the scrollview hence things will not work accordingly.can see this for more information.
Is it possible to have an activity scroll down to a certain point when a button is clicked?
I want my activity to behave just like an anchor in a web page.
I have two buttons at the top of the activity, followed by lengthy text aboout each of the buttons. When I click on the button at the top I want the page to scroll down beginning of that button's description.
Is this possible?
Assuming you are using a TextView to display your text, you use the built in scrolling function myTextView.scrollTo(x,y). Put it inside your buttons' onClicks and you should be good to go!

So your outer layout is a scroll view?
You can call
View.requestFocus()
Obviously, the view has to be focusable.
The problem with scrollTo(x,y) mentioned above is most likely that you don't know x, y.
