Setting EditText imeOptions to actionNext has no effect
- by Katedral Pillon
I have a fairly complex (not really) xml layout file. One of the views is a LinearLayout (v1) with two children: an EditText(v2) and another LinearLayout(v3). The child LinearLayout in turn has an EditText(v4) and an ImageView(v5).
For EditText v2 I have imeOptions as
android:imeOptions="actionNext"
But when I run the app, the keyboard's return does not check to next and I want it to change to next. How do I fix this problem?
Also, when user clicks next, I want focus to go to EditText v4. I do I do this?
For those who really need to see some code:
<LinearLayout
android:id="@+id/do_txt_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="@color/col6"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:visibility="gone" >
<EditText
android:id="@+id/gm_title"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="5dp"
android:background="@drawable/coldo_text"
android:hint="@string/enter_title"
android:maxLines="1"
android:imeOptions="actionNext"
android:padding="5dp"
android:textColor="pigc7"
android:textSize="ads2" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<EditText
android:id="@+id/rev_text"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_margin="5dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="@drawable/coldo_text"
android:hint="@string/enter_msg"
android:maxLines="2"
android:padding="5dp"
android:textColor="pigc7"
android:textSize="ads2" />
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:background="@drawable/colbtn_r”
android:clickable="true"
android:onClick=“clickAct”
android:paddingLeft="5dp"
android:paddingRight="5dp"
android:src="@drawable/abcat” />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
