Android Use Done button on Keyboard to click button

People also ask

How do I change the Done button on my android keyboard?

First you need to set the android:imeOptions attribute equal to actionDone for your target EditText as seen below. That will change your 'RETURN' button in your EditText's soft keyboard to a 'DONE' button.

How do I use imeOptions on android?

To specify the keyboard action button, use the android:imeOptions attribute with an action value such as "actionSend" or "actionSearch" . For example: Figure 4. The Send button appears when you declare android:imeOptions="actionSend" .

What is Imeoption android?

Android allows you to customize this using android:imeOptions . You can specify a "Send" button or "Next" button. The full list can be found here. With that, you can then listen for presses on the action button by defining a TextView.OnEditorActionListener for the EditText element.

How do I press Enter on android?

Show activity on this post. You can use newline in Android Jelly Bean while texting too. While typing hold shift key the smiley icon will change to newline icon then move your finger to that newline button, it gives me newline in my text message.


You can use this one also (sets a special listener to be called when an action is performed on the EditText), it works both for DONE and RETURN:

max.setOnEditorActionListener(new OnEditorActionListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
            if ((event != null && (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER)) || (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE)) {
                Log.i(TAG,"Enter pressed");
            }    
            return false;
        }
    });

You can try with IME_ACTION_DONE .

This action performs a “done” operation for nothing to input and the IME will be closed.

 Your_EditTextObj.setOnEditorActionListener(new TextView.OnEditorActionListener() {
            @Override
            public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
                boolean handled = false;
                if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) {
                  /* Write your logic here that will be executed when user taps next button */


                    handled = true;
                }
                return handled;
            }
        });

Kotlin Solution

The base way to handle the done action in Kotlin is:

edittext.setOnEditorActionListener { _, actionId, _ ->
    if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) {
        // Call your code here
        true
    }
    false
}

Kotlin Extension

Use this to call edittext.onDone {/*action*/} in your main code. Keeps it more readable and maintainable

edittext.onDone { submitForm() }

fun EditText.onDone(callback: () -> Unit) {
    setOnEditorActionListener { _, actionId, _ ->
        if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) {
            callback.invoke()
            true
        }
        false
    }
}

Don't forget to add these options to your edittext

<EditText ...
    android:imeOptions="actionDone"
    android:inputType="text"/>

If you need inputType="textMultiLine" support, read this post


Try this:

max.setOnKeyListener(new OnKeyListener(){
    @Override
    public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event){
        if(keyCode == event.KEYCODE_ENTER){
            //do what you want
        }
    }
});

Try this for Xamarin.Android (Cross Platform)

edittext.EditorAction += (object sender, TextView.EditorActionEventArgs e) {
       if (e.ActionId.Equals (global::Android.Views.InputMethods.ImeAction.Done)) {
           //TODO Something
       }
};

I copied the following code from AndroidStudio when you create a LoginActivity. I use the ime attributes

In your layout

<EditText android:id="@+id/unidades" android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:hint="@string/prompt_unidades"
                    android:inputType="number" android:maxLines="1"
                    android:singleLine="true"
                    android:textAppearance="?android:textAppearanceSmall"
                    android:enabled="true" android:focusable="true"
                    android:gravity="right"
                    android:imeActionId="@+id/cantidad"
                    android:imeActionLabel="@string/add"
                    android:imeOptions="actionUnspecified"/>

In your Activity

editTextUnidades.setOnEditorActionListener(new TextView.OnEditorActionListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
            if (actionId == R.id.cantidad || actionId == EditorInfo.IME_NULL) {
                addDetalle(null);
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }
    });
