Menu
I have a fairly complex (not really) xml layout file. One of the views is a LinearLayout (v1) with two children: an EditText(v2) and another LinearLayout(v3). The child LinearLayout in turn has an EditText(v4) and an ImageView(v5).
For EditText v2 I have imeOptions as
android:imeOptions="actionNext" But when I run the app, the keyboard's return does not check to next and I want it to change to next. How do I fix this problem?
Also, when user clicks next, I want focus to go to EditText v4. I do I do this?
For those who really need to see some code:
<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/do_txt_view" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="@color/col6" android:orientation="vertical" android:visibility="gone" > <EditText android:id="@+id/gm_title" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_margin="5dp" android:background="@drawable/coldo_text" android:hint="@string/enter_title" android:maxLines="1" android:imeOptions="actionNext" android:padding="5dp" android:textColor="pigc7" android:textSize="ads2" /> <LinearLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="100dp" android:orientation="horizontal" > <EditText android:id="@+id/rev_text" android:layout_width="0dp" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:layout_margin="5dp" android:layout_weight="1" android:background="@drawable/coldo_text" android:hint="@string/enter_msg" android:maxLines="2" android:padding="5dp" android:textColor="pigc7" android:textSize="ads2" /> <ImageView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:background="@drawable/colbtn_r” android:clickable="true" android:onClick=“clickAct” android:paddingLeft="5dp" android:paddingRight="5dp" android:src="@drawable/abcat” /> </LinearLayout> </LinearLayout>

In android, we can set the text of EditText control either while declaring it in Layout file or by using setText() method in Activity file.
android:autoText If set, specifies that this TextView has a textual input method and automatically corrects some common spelling errors.
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: Kotlin Java.
You can use android:inputType="number" in the XML file. You can specify other values such as numberDecimal as well. Also, you might additionally want to use android:singleLine="true" for a single line Edittext .
Just add android:maxLines="1" & android:inputType="text" to your EditText. It will work!! :)
