I have a app in which i have edit text. I want to use it as a search bar. So when i click on it, i want to get a keypad in which i should have a search button.
I tried it using: android:imeOptions="actionSearch", android:imeActionLabel="Search" but i didnt get it. In android 2.1 we are getting it, but in android 2.2 we are not getting it. Can any one you suggest a good solution for this?

Can we get all the suggestions shown in any keyboard on android while typing?
If no, is there any alternate way of doing it?
I tried with SpellCheckerSessionListener, didn't succeed.
I have found several links that show how to get the height of the SoftKeyboard in Android, but my issue is that I don't know how access to it in Nativescript. This link shows how to do it natively using Java but I would like to do that in Nativescript.
Any ideas?
Thank you
Following the link you provided in your question, it seems to me you want to get when the keyboard is showing not really the height. If i am correct their is a plugin for that in nativescript; https://www.npmjs.com/package/nativescript-keyboardshowing.
It helps you to know if the keyboard is showing or hiding. Hope this helps.
Here, I just want to know that how to add buttons in the top of keypad of android devices. They should not be custom. I just want to use this functionality of android like iPhone does. I want to open and close keypad then I want also close or open next,previous and done button
I've searched it alot on this site but I haven't get a possible solution yet.
I wish I will get now.
Thanks in advance.
We have an app that is running on both iOS and Android. However, in the Android version, the keyboard is always set to caps-lock. In order to type in lower-case, the user will need to press shift for each letter.
We tried disabling textCapCharacters and using textCapSentences, but it did not fix the problem.
Sorry if I am not very clear. I am working for a publisher and the developer is in China. Let me know if you need clarification, and I will get it.
Check if there is something like below is set to that edit text.
android:capitalize="characters"
Hi I want to include word suggestions in my custom keyboard.
e.g if I write wi it should suggest me whether you want to write "winner" "winks" "wilson" etc
Please guide me.
Thanks
Here is the real answer to this question.
It was hard for me to find:
First you need to:
Add Words to Android's UserDictionary
By having the words in the dictionary, they will show up in suggestions.
If you want to exclusively show your words however, then something like the auto-complete dropdown idea is a better fit (that the other answers linked)
You can search for source code for android keyboard that are having this suggestion bars, i.e. download source for android gingerbread 2.3 keyboard source code, as android is opensource you can get the code easily.
