How can i keep my edit text floating above the on screen keyboard?
You will have to write your activity's layout to adapt into the smaller room you will have when keyboard is up. That can be done for example including a ScrollView in your design.
Additionally, you will have to add following into your Activity's definition in the manifest file:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
Now the activity's view will resize when keyboard is visible.

My popup layout extending relative layout. In popup i placed edittext. I am displaying popup with arrow based on view. I want to move only popup when keyboard is showing.
Please help me, how to solve this problem.
Simply add:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
To the relevant activity in the AndroidManifest.xml file.
"adjustResize" - The activity's main window is always resized to make
room for the soft keyboard on screen.
I have an EditText visible in a LinearLayout that I don't want to move when the soft keyboard is shown. The reason I don't want it to move is because I want to control the items above and adjust their sizes to make the EditText and the content it controls below to become visible.
Is it possible to prevent the screen moving at all once the soft keyboard is shown?
Note: I am using an activity with the toolbar hidden.
I have solved this - I have added the SetSoftInputMode to AdjustNothing to the OnCreate method. Doing this in the xml doesn't do anything, but in the code does.
In your AndroidManifest.xml file, go to your activity and add this.
<activity
...
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustNothing"
/>
your views will remain in the same position
I have EditText, when i toutch this, keyboard will show, but instead of covering the bottom part of the application, it shifts all the elements at the top and makes them smaller, everything looks distorted ...
How do I display the keyboard so that it does not affect our layout?
Please check this Link:
You can add in your menifest for the activity you want to prevent such issue.
Also make sure if you are having a bit more content use scrollView as a parent.
And soft input mode as "adjustResize"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
or
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
you can use as per your need.
adjustResize
to ensure that the system resizes your layout to the available space—which ensures that all of your layout content is accessible (even though it probably requires scrolling)—use this one.
adjustPan
The activity's main window is not resized to make room for the soft keyboard, and the contents of the window are automatically panned so that the current focus is never obscured by the keyboard and users can always see what they are typing.
adjustNothing
Do nothing with layouts
I have Login Activity with a background image and a frame layout.
The framelayout will be replaced by a relative layout which contains three edit text boxes in the relative layout and a button at relative layout's bottom i.e., alignParentBottom = true.
When I focus on any of the edit text boxes the keypad raises ans I want all of them to move accordingly and the button at bottom should be immediately above the keypad so I am using adjustResize in my manifest, but this is making my background image to get resized i.e., compressed and displaying it within the visible space of the screen.
I need my background image not to move while all other components should be moving according to the screen.
If I use adjustPan the button which is aligned at parent bottom is not getting placed above the keypad and is invisible behind the softpad.
Please help me in this regard if anyone knows the way to resolve this requirement.
Thanks.
Try adding android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustPan" to your activity in the manifest file.
Explained here:
adjustPan
The activity's main window is not resized to make room for the soft
keyboard. Rather, the contents of the window are automatically panned
so that the current focus is never obscured by the keyboard and users
can always see what they are typing. This is generally less desirable
than resizing, because the user may need to close the soft keyboard to
get at and interact with obscured parts of the window.
If it's top layer just instead of setting that layer background you set that activity custom theme with that background. That way it does't resize. At least that worked for me.
Currently, when an EditText comes into focus and the keyboard comes up, the keyboard covers the form layout for a second, then the layout container resizes to expose the form, as illustrated below.
I'd like the layout to resize smoothly as the keyboard rises up. Is this possible?
Add this in your in the manifest:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize|stateVisible"
