*TreKing,* This is true, but he didn't ask about that. He just asked about a way for an EditText to keep the text it has on a rotate.
The easiest and fastest way to solve that particular problem is the configChanges XML attribute. You'll note that I said their may be a need for other options if they needed it to do additional things other than just handle a rotate. There is no need to code complicated functions to do something simple. Fix it the simplest way possible and then add to it if other things arise. *King Salamon,* You can review this documentation to understand more about how to save the state in an Activity: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals/activities.html#SavingActivityState Steven Studio LFP http://www.studio-lfp.com On Saturday, October 8, 2011 2:13:01 AM UTC-5, TreKing wrote: > > On Fri, Oct 7, 2011 at 3:59 PM, Studio LFP <studi...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Add this to your activity tag in the AndroidManifest.xml >> >> android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden" >> >> That will fix you up >> > > That will hide the issue until the app is destroyed / recreated via some > other means - like being put in the background and being returned to later. > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > TreKing <http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking> - Chicago > transit tracking app for Android-powered devices > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
