how do I catch specific key events from the soft keyboard? specifically I'm interested in the "Done" key.
I am not quite sure which kind of listener was used in the accepted answer. I used the OnKeyListener
attached to an EditText
and it wasn't able to catch next nor done.
However, using OnEditorActionListener
worked and it also allowed me to differentiate between them by comparing the action value with defined constants EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_NEXT
and EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE
.
editText.setOnEditorActionListener(new OnEditorActionListener() { @Override public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) { if ((actionId & EditorInfo.IME_MASK_ACTION) != 0) { doSomething(); return true; } else { return false; } } });
