I'm having a minor issue I'm trying to solve. When I open my application, the keyboard shows to enter a query for the search view. However I just want the keyboard to appear when I click on the search view. How do I fix this?
Thanks!
You can force Android to hide the virtual keyboard using the InputMethodManager, calling hideSoftInputFromWindow, passing in the token of the window containing your edit field. This will force the keyboard to be hidden in all situations.

Android SearchView provides user interface to search query submitted over search provider. SearchView widget can be implemented over ToolBar/ActionBar or inside a layout. SearchView is by default collapsible and set to be iconified using setIconifiedByDefault(true) method of SearchView class.
Step 1 − Create a new project in Android Studio, go to File ⇒ New Project and fill all required details to create a new project. Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main.xml. Step 3 Add the following code to src/MainActivity.java In the above code when you click on the button it will hide keyboard.
To prevent focus, call searchView.clearFocus on searchView.doOnLayout (using android-ktx)
Call MenuItem.expandActionView to expand MenuItem from icon into SearchView. To prevent focus, call searchView.clearFocus on searchView.doOnLayout (using android-ktx)
The setText function is invoked when the user clicks the button. It takes the input from edittext and replaces it in the textview. Then it calls the closeKeyboard function and clears the value of edittext. The closeKeyboard function hides the keyboard. MainActivity.java packageorg.geeksforgeeks.gfgHideKey importandroid.content.Context;
Use this attributes in your layout tag in XML file:
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
or in manifest xml for your Activity add the property:
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden"
This works for me:
searchView =(SearchView)view.findViewById(R.id.searchView);
searchView.clearFocus();
