I just do this in android emulator for copying and pasting the data in edittext.
Ctrl + C = Copy
Ctrl + V = Paste
But it didn't works. So, i need to know if these shortcuts are working or not in emulator. Or, any other special shortcuts available for android emulator. Anyone knows this means, help me to find out the problem? Hope this will very useful for me. I'm working on Windows 7 Professional OS.
You can see the shortcuts by clicking on the "more" button:
And going to the "Help" tab:
For more information: Android Emulator.
You can check current config from console
emulator -help-keys
When running the emulator, use the following keypresses:
Ctrl-H Home button
Ctrl-M Menu (Soft-Left) button
Ctrl-Backspace Back button
Ctrl-Escape Power button
Ctrl-Equal Volume up button
Ctrl-Minus Volume down button
note that NumLock must be deactivated for keypad keys to work
Copy the text you want:
Ctrl + C = Copy
Then when the emulator is in focus, paste using:
Ctrl + V = Paste
Then in the edit text that you want, long click on the field until you see the emulator paste button pop up above your cursor. Click that and it should work.
In the Android Studio Emulator the ctrl+v doensn't works, just hold the left mouse button for a second and paste menu will appear (in textbox etc.).
For Mac OS, the most important shortcuts are:
Cmd + Backspace: Back button
Cmd + O: Overview (The square button)
Cmd + Shift + H: Home (The center button)
You can see the rest from the Triple Dot menu, go to Help section.

How can I fix problem or can I reset Android Studio settings?
Just got the same problem as yours. And this is the solution:
Go to File > Settings > Editor > General > Appearance, then uncheck the Use block caret
Try fn + ins. That worked for me.
Go to settings and plugins and just disable the IdeaVim plugin it works in 2020.itx also occurs due to this extension.
In windows, win+insert worked for me.
Presse Fn+0. It will work instantly.
go to plugins and disable IdeaVim then restart android studio it will be ok ...
Press Fn + Del on your keyboard together.
Explanation: Its because Delete key on keyboard has Insert function. So pressing Del along with Fn key will enable Insert mode within your editor from Overwrite mode as in your case.
It's ins in the latest version of Android Studio.
In windows if you press INSERT key cursor mode will get change,use WINDOWS + INSERT to get back into normal mode
For mac users just right click and deselect "Column selection mode" or press Shift + Command + 8
Just restart Android Studio and voilà !
None of the other solutions worked for me (Windows 7, maybe with an inactive Lock Num key).
In Android Studio (IntelliJ) how do you execute a 'File Search' for a string within a Scope of files? Can Search Everywhere do this, I only see how to use it to search 'code', not 'files'
Example: Search for the string "Dummy Button" in the 'Workspace Scope'.
Expected Response: res/values/string.xml:line4
You can do it in two ways,
Goto Menu -> Edit -> Find -> Find in Path
Or use the shortcut,
ctrl+shift+f
In Android Studio,
On a Windows or Linux based machine use shortcut Ctrl + Shift + F to search any string in whole project. It's easy to remember considering Ctrl + F is used to search in the current file. So just press the Shift as well.
On OSX use the Command key instead of Ctrl.
Use Ctrl + F combination for Windows and Linux to search in current file.
Use Shift + Shift (Double Tap Shift) combination for Windows and Linux to search Project File of Project.
Command+Shift+F on Mac to find in path
In Android Studio 4.1 update, the combination for Mac users changed, now you should use Control + Shift + f.
Try this. Enter your string name in dialogue box after pressing ctrl+shift+f
Menu Bar->Edit->Find->Find in Path...
Press Two times Shift button and write in search box it will search in whole Android studio.
In my case, I accidentally checked the box of "File mask". So all xml files are not searchable in Find in Path. Maybe this can help you.
Can I press back button of android emulator using selenium web driver?
Looking for help.
I was using Selenium with Appium and Android emulator, succeeded with
webdriver.navigate().back();
Run the below command from my java class.
It helps me to press back button.
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /K cd " +"../libs/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools");
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /C adb shell input keyevent 4");
Hope it will help others
I've got the following assumtion:
as we have such mapping
**Emulated Device Key** -**Keyboard Key**:
Home - HOME;
Menu (left softkey) - F2 or Page-up button;
Star (right softkey) - Shift-F2 or Page Down;
Back - ESC;
Try to emulate sending 'esc' key.
element.sendKeys(Keys.ESCAPE)
If you wanna handle some popup (e.g. alert or confirm dialog box) and do not have any possibility to localize element prolly this works:
Alert a = driver.switchTo().alert();
a.confirm(); // or dismiss() if you want to hit 'cancel'
Hope this helps you)

Anybody figured out the keyboard equivalent of this menu?
I have been using this menu on test cases infused with Robotium with class signatures like:
public class AccountTest extends ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2<MainActivity> { ... }
Somehow, Alt-Shift-X, T just doesn't quite do the same thing even if you select the Android JUnit Runner in the dialog that pops up...
The similar Run As -> Android Application has a tricky shortcut of Alt-Shift-A, R when launching every other conceivable type of runnable begins with Alt-Shift-X, so there is hope.
Window -> Preferences -> Run/Debug -> Launching -> Always launch the previously launched application.
Run the test case, either the whole thing, or a particular test method, once. It then becomes available to run again in the history. Press the Run or Debug button's drop down menu. Select the configuration you want to run.
From then on, F11 or Ctrl+F11 (debug or run) rinses and repeats the exact same thing again.
type type type, F11, observe results, type type type. No mouse. Very productive.
On my macbook I'm using Shift-Command-Fn-F11.
I am using a similar shortcut but for TestNG, in my case, the shortcut is SHIFT + ALT + X, G
So when I press SHIFT + ALT + X, I get a small window at bottom right side as:
Once I see this window on the bottom right, as I hit the key G, it launches TestNG Suite as expected.
