When I press next on et_business_tel, it goes to the other fragments EditText. Sometimes it goes to et_email_address_confirm, others it goes to et_first_name. This happens in et_business_email as well. I tried android:nextFocusDown but it doesn't seem to work. Am I doing something wrong or is there a way to point the next button to focus the next editText?
setOnKeyListener(new OnKeyListener() { @Override public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub if (edtPasscode3. getText(). length() == 1) edtPasscode4. requestFocus(); return false; } });
android:nextFocusDown defines the next view to receive focus when the user navigates down.
The em is simply the font size. In an element with a 2in font, 1em thus means 2in. Expressing sizes, such as margins and paddings, in em means they are related to the font size, and if the user has a big font (e.g., on a big screen) or a small font (e.g., on a handheld device), the sizes will be in proportion.
android:imeOptions="actionSend" /> You can then listen for presses on the action button by defining a TextView.OnEditorActionListener for the EditText element. In your listener, respond to the appropriate IME action ID defined in the EditorInfo class, such as IME_ACTION_SEND . For example: findViewById<EditText>(R.
I used this, it worked for me:
android:imeOptions="actionNext"
android:nextFocusRight="@+id/staff"
