I have four edittexts the problem is when i start activity the focus will be on the last edittext , how can i make the focus on the first edittext using xml ?

onCreate(); of Activity
EditText firsteditText=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.first);
EditText secondeditText=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.second);
EditText thirdeditText=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.third);
EditText fourtheditText=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.fourth);
firsteditText.requestFocus();
You can use the requestFocus element.
You can also add a <requestFocus/> tab in the activity xml.
In Android Studio 2.3.3, you can click on the focusedByDefault attribute in the Properties panel on the EditText you want the focus on first.

In a browser we click on search box whole text got selected. like that how to enable this in android EditText. When click on EditText, whole text in it got selected.
Its my first question so please don't critic it.
editText.setSelectAllOnFocus(true);
You can add it in EditText
android:selectAllOnFocus="true"
Use android:selectAllOnFocus
If the text is selectable, select it all when the view takes focus.
May be a boolean value, such as "true" or "false".
From XML
android:selectAllOnFocus="true"
FROM java
YourEditText.setSelectAllOnFocus(true);
I need make multiline EditText input with inputType="textCapWords|textNoSuggestions" but leave Enter(new line) button in keyboard.
Problem i have is that when i put inputType attribute on edittext it changes enter button to next button.
so, is there way to have EditText with inputType attribute set and working enter button?
thanks for suggestions
It looks like when I add inputType attribute it force EditText into singleline
I just added textMultiLine into inputType.
so it is inputType="textCapWords|textNoSuggestions|textMultiLine" and it works
You should check this XML property : android:imeOptions and its actionDone value
I have two edit text fields on my phone:
'Name:' and 'Phone:'
Whenever I launch my program, my cursor is already in the 'phone' field with the number keyboard pulled up. However, I'd like for it to center on the first editText, 'name', so that the regular keyboard pulls up.
Does anybody know why this is working this way, and how to correct it?
(EditText)txtName = findViewById(R.id.NAME_ID);
txtName.requestFocus();
Do this in your onCreate() after you've inflated your layout
See requestFocus tag on your layout
You can do this in code with a requestFocus() method on the view:
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#requestFocus()
or with an tag inside the view tag in the layout:

you should be able to use
android:cursorVisible="false"
in your xml or
editTxt.setCursorVisible(false);
from java
EDIT:
Use an OnFocusChangeListener on the EditText to get a callback when it gets and loses focus and use the setCursorVisible() method to set the cursor to whichever state you need.
you can set android:textCursorDrawable="#null" in your layout
In my form I have different EditText areas and a Button on the end.
If I use android:nextFocusForward and android:nextFocusDown between EditText in my XML file everything is ok, but if I use these in the last EditText in order to give focus to the Button I get:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity
ComponentInfo{org.test/org.test.myActivity}: java.lang.ClassCastException:android.widget.TextView
I even tried:
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
Of course they are in the same GroupView.
Can you try if this works, of course this is a code solution not an xml one:
button.requestFocus()
