Thanks for reading.
I am facing a strange problem: My app behavior is such that when the Activity starts, I requestFocus() on an EditText and show the soft keyboard.
However, when I press the back button to dismiss the keyboard and tap the EditText I don't get the keyboard to pop up ever again. Only way out is to the start the Activity again.
Here's what my code looks like:
EditText editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText);
editText.requestFocus();
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
if(imm != null) {
imm.toggleSoftInput(0, 0);
imm.showSoftInput(editText, InputMethodManager.SHOW_FORCED);
}
And here's my XML:
<EditText android:id="@+id/editText"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:imeOptions="actionSearch" android:hint="Test Hint"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:maxLength="30">
</EditText>
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Try this code,
ReplyDeleteTO OPEN
ettext.requestFocus();
ettext.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
InputMethodManager keyboard = (InputMethodManager)
getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
keyboard.showSoftInput(ettext, 0);
}
},200);
TO CLOSE
ettext.requestFocus();
ettext.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
InputMethodManager keyboard = (InputMethodManager)
getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
keyboard.hideSoftInputFromWindow(ettext.
getWindowToken(), 0);
}
},200);
try this:
ReplyDeletefinal InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)EnterWordsActivity.this.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
if (imm != null)
{
imm.toggleSoftInput(YOUE_EDTITE_TEXT.SHOW_FORCED,1);
}
You used the wrong view for showing the input window.
ReplyDeleteEditText editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText);
editText.requestFocus();
InputMethodManager imm =(InputMethodManager)getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
if(imm != null) {
imm.showSoftInput(editText, 0);
}
