Google Places API for Android - PlacePikcer without search option

Question

I am building an application, where the user has to select a Place he wants.

For that, I am using the PlacePicker dialog, as the Google Places API for Android is teaching in the API reference site.

However, when the user click the button and open the Place Picker Dialog, it does not have any button where the user can type the name of the place he wants to select. So, the user will have to select a place just dragging on the map; this is horrible for the user, specially if he wants to choose a specific location far from his location or he doesn't know where is the place on the map.

So, I've tried searching on Google and foruns on the internet and I didn't find anything about how to set the dialog to appear the search button.

Thank you! ;)

Unfortunately the Place Picker does not support what you are asking for.
