Disable autofocus when editing text

Question

I have an edit text:

<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/linearLayout7" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"> <EditText android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_weight="1" android:id="@+id/editText1" android:text="3"> <requestFocus></requestFocus> </EditText> <Button android:text="Button" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/button2"></Button> </LinearLayout> 

and then some other things under

The problem I am facing is that immediately when the application starts focusing on the input, I do not want the focus to be on the input immediately when the application starts.

I tried to remove

 <requestFocus></requestFocus> 

and did nothing.

Answer 1

Add android:focusable="true" and android:focusableInTouchMode="true" to the parent EditText layout as follows;

 <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/linearLayout7" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:focusable="true" android:focusableInTouchMode="true"> 

I think this should help you.

Answer 2

NO More work ... just add android: windowSoftInputMode = "stateAlwaysHidden" to the activity tag of the Manifest.xml file.

Answer 3

If you want to clear the default focus for editable text, use the following 2 attributes

 android:focusable="false" android:focusableInTouchMode="true" 

inside the parent linear layout.

eg:

 <LinearLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:focusable="false" android:focusableInTouchMode="true" android:orientation="vertical"> <EditText android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:hint="email id" android:inputType="textEmailAddress" android:maxLines="1" /> </LinearLayout> 

If you want to hide the keyboard when creating activity, use these attributes inside the activity tag of the manifest file, for example:

  <activity android:configChanges="screenSize|orientation|keyboardHidden" android:screenOrientation="portrait" android:name=".activities.LoginActivity" android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustResize"/> 

If you want to hide the keyboard when a button is pressed or when an event occurs, use the following code

  public void onClick(View v) { try { //InputMethodManager is used to hide the virtual keyboard from the user after finishing the user input InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); if (imm.isAcceptingText()) { imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(), 0); } } catch (NullPointerException e) { Log.e("Exception", e.getMessage() + ">>"); } } } catch (NullPointerException e) { Log.e("Exception", e.getMessage() + ">>"); } 

If you want to remove focus from editing text fields after exiting the exercise

 @Override protected void onResume() { super.onResume(); mEmail.clearFocus(); mPassword.clearFocus(); } 

And finally, if you want to clear the data in the edit text fields when submitting the form, use

  @Override protected void onResume() { super.onResume(); mEmail.getText().clear(); mPassword.getText().clear(); }

 <LinearLayout android:focusable="true" android:focusableInTouchMode="true" android:layout_width="0px" android:layout_height="0px" /> <EditText android:text="" android:id="@+id/EditText01" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:hint="@string/hint"> </EditText> 

No other encoding is required, it is a simple and clear solution.

Answer 5

You can use hidden windowed input mode to hide the keyboard and android:focusable="false" and android:focusableInTouchMode="true"

 <activity android:name=".MainActivity" android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden" android:label="@string/app_name" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> </intent-filter> </activity> 

Answer 6

 <EditText android:id="@+id/input" android:layout_width="0dp" android:layout_height="48dp" android:focusable="false" android:focusableInTouchMode="false" /> detailInputView = (EditText) debugToolsView.findViewById(R.id.input); detailInputView.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() { @Override public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) { detailInputView.setFocusable(true); detailInputView.setFocusableInTouchMode(true); return false; } }); 

Answer 7

Just add the following to your main xml tag:

  android:focusableInTouchMode="true"

Hei lee

There are several ways to do this, Mudassir gives you the opportunity to do this.

If the idea does not work, then do a simple thing -

In your AndroidManifest>Activity add this simple code:

 android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden" 

Nothing needs to be done in EditText in XML, everything will work, and focus will not appear.

See an example of real-life code:

 <activity android:name=".MainActivity" android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden" android:label="@string/app_name" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> </intent-filter> </activity> 

Answer 9

try this code in LinearLayout

  <LinearLayout android:focusable="true" android:focusableInTouchMode="true" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical"> <EditText android:hint="Search..." android:drawableRight="@drawable/ic_search" android:id="@+id/search_tab_hotbird_F" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" /> <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView android:id="@+id/recyHotbird_F" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:padding="4dp"> </android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView> </LinearLayout> 

Answer 10

It worked for me, desire will help you too.

Or :

 android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden" 

add this property to your Manifest.xml file under the specific action in which you want to disable autofocus. Cons: it will hide only your soft keyboard, the cursor will still be there.

Rest:

  android:focusableInTouchMode="true" 

add this property to your user interface XML file (in the parent layout) so that it hides focus and keyboard.

to clear requestFocuse default, you should set your View parent focusable = "true" as shown below

 <android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout android:id="@+id/coordinatorChild" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:focusable="true" android:focusableInTouchMode="true">
