Defining EditText imeOptions when using InputMethodManager.showSoftInput(View, int, ResultReceiver)
- by TuomasR
In my application I have a custom view which requires some text input. As the view in itself doesn't contain any actual views (it's a Surface with custom drawing being done), I have a FrameLayout which contains the custom view and underneath it an EditText -view. When the user does a specific action, the custom view is hidden and the EditText takes over for user input. This works fine, but android:imeOptions seem to be ignored for this view. I'm currently doing this:
InputMethodManager inputMethodManager = (InputMethodManager)parent.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
EditText t = (EditText)parent.findViewById(R.id.DummyEditor);
t.setImeOptions(EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE);
inputMethodManager.showSoftInput(t, 0, new ResultReceiver(mHandler) {
@Override
protected void onReceiveResult(
int resultCode, Bundle resultData) {
// We're done
System.out.println("Editing done : " +
((EditText)parent.findViewById(R.id.DummyEditor)).getText());
}
}
);
It seems that the setImeOptions(EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) has no effect. I've also tried adding the option to the layout XML with android:imeOptions="actionDone". No help.
Any ideas?
