Hi, I have a similar problem. I want that no softkeyboard appears, when I tap on one of my textedit fields, because I've created some buttons to do the input. I've tryed out some code like this:
InputMethodManager in = (InputMethodManager)getSystemService (Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); in.hideSoftInputFromWindow(findViewById (R.id.EditText01).getApplicationWindowToken(), InputMethodManager.HIDE_NOT_ALWAYS); But it didn't work. What can I do to make it work the way I want? Can anyone give me some sample code?
