Adding an image on EditText works fine. However, copying an image is another problem. When I insert an image on EditText by using ImageSpan it shows correctly, but I copy inserted image, EditText shows me only 'obj'.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want an EditText to look like TextView but still behave like EditText. I've tried applying TextView style to my EditText in my layout.xml file, like this:
CODE:............
But I get an error within xml editor: "Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'style' with value '@android:style/ Widget_TextView')." It is strange because @android:style/ Widget_TextView definitively exists - I double checked it in code via android.R.style.Widget_TextView. Another strange thing is that I don't get android:style offered in the xml editor while typing? There is android:id, android:text and everything else.. but not android:style?
I consider the hard way (making EditText look like TextView) to be: extending EditText and overriding it's onDraw method.
Our app (WordPress for Android) uses a ScrollView for the new blog post view. The issue is that if a user writes a lengthy blog post in the EditText, they are unable to scroll inside of the EditText because the ScrollView seems to be taking over the scrolling action, even when you are in the EditText.
Here's the layout XML (the EditText in question is @id/content):

I am using an EditText. Is it possible to have a part of text uneditable and the rest editable in the same EditText?
View 2 Replies View RelatedEvery time I put a TextView before an EditText element in a LinearLayout, the EditText does not show. When I don't, it does.
I've narrowed the problem down to the TextView's layout_width attribute. If I give it "wrap_content", it works, but doesn't "block" down, and it appears on the same line as the EditText.

I have this at the top of my application. When the application starts, the EditText is orange highlighted and has a cursor in it; when the EditText is tapped, the soft keyboard pops up. The user uses it to type into the EditText.
However, when they click the Button, my onClick method fires and does everything it's supposed to, however the soft keyboard stays on screen and the EditText is still highlighted with its cursor.
I also have, at the top of the Button onclick: findViewById(R.id.name).clearFocus();
In spite of this, the EditText does not seem to clear its focus. How do I make the button actually act as if it is submitting the form?
Also, I do not transition to a different Activity on the click of the Button. I suppose that is the typical case, and probably the reason why they don't bother hiding the keyboard. However I want to keep the search box and button at the top of the screen, so I just dynamically fill and add views to the screen when the Button is pressed. How can I achieve my desired behavior?
i have a listview (i use a custom adapter) with 10 rows and each row has edittext how will i update the content of edittext on the third row after i edit the content of edittext in the first row.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to populate the text of a second EditText widget with the text from the first EditText widget only when the second EditText widget receives focus, the second widget is not empty, and the first widget is not empty. When I run it and click into the second widget it does not populate. When I remove the third constraint ('etxt.getText ().toString().trim() == ""')) it works. so getText() on the second EditText widget is returning something even though the second widget has no initial value other then the text that is displayed via the hint attribute.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn the Google Maps app, there's a unique EditText that I'd like to reproduce. If you click "menu" then go to "directions", the "start point" field should begin with "My Location" as the text. The interesting part of this field is its behavior - you cannot edit "My Location" without completely deleting it first. I have a few places where such behavior would be useful, but I can never quite fully reproduce this. There are three challenges involved with this behavior: No matter what the user does, they cannot partially edit the field; it is always fully selected. The keyboard directional keys, rather than moving around the EditText field, change focus. When the user does choose to change the text, the behavior of #1 and #2 disappear and the field acts like a normal EditText.

Or: How do I avoid the display of the IME-keyboard?
I have a layout where my special keyboard sits below the EditText so there's no need to show the IME. Please understand that I cannot implement my keyboard as IME as it is specific for this very EditText and using it in any other context would only cause problems.
I tried to use
getWindow().setSoftInputMode(LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);
in the onCreate() of the activity, but that doesn't seem to do anything in this situation.
I have an EditText that shows time. After user clicks the EditText I want to show a TimePickerDialog, so I set a View.OnClickListener to my EditText. But the OnClickListener is behaving wierdly - I touch the EditText and then software keyboard appears (which I don't want).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an issue with EditText when it's wrapped in ScrollView.
Please see the following layout setup:

There's nothing special about this layout. I just want the EditText inside ScrollView to be scrollable when I entered more than 5 lines of text.
I tested this layout with both Eclair and Froyo and Eclair seemed working fine, but Froyo didn't really work at all. Was there any change on ScrollView?
ScrollView api says that I can put EditText(or TextView) inside of ScrollView to have this kind of functionality, so I guess that I did make a mistake or missed something important.
Whenever I add an EditText widget to the layout of my home screen widget (confusing how the term "widget" is being used twice in the Android lexicon :-/ ), I receive the "Problem Loading Widget" error box.
Here is the layout I'm attempting; if you remove the EditText, it works...

Now, the Google Search home screen widget has an EditText, so it's obviously legal to implement.
I was fillding with EditText and handling of events, and I was wondering on a strange thing:
If you press some of the keys (for example forward slash '/') on the emulated physical keyboard, the keyevents are called as usual (onKeydown, the KeyListeners etc). If I click on the corresponding virtual key on the onscreen virtual keyboard, all these callbacks do not get called at all! This is strange, given that If I press other keys like alhpanumerical, the events are called.
In my layout i need to have to 2 EditText widgets which would occupy 50% of area individually. I'm planning to have the solution generic for all devices, let me know if this can be controlled through XML in any way or I'll have to create the layout through code.

I have an searchbox which should not be focused by default and should have focus only when user clicks on it to enter something.
