If you add the line
android:singleLine=True to you XML declaration.

If you do that, the soft keyboard will show a Done button.

If you don't want to do that, you can exit the keyboard using the
backbutton key.

Hope this helps,

 Hi all.

 I have an EditText widget which is described as follows:

 EditText
                 android:id=@+id/xcord
                 android:numeric=decimal
                 android:layout_width=fill_parent
                 android:layout_height=wrap_content
                 /

 When my EditText receives focus, the keypad helper pops up (in my
 emulator). Then when a button is clicked, I do stuff with the value
 (in this case, I just display the value in a Toast). However the
 keypad helper remains there and doesn't disappear, obscuring the main
 part of the screen. How do I make the helper go away once I know the
 user has finished typing?

 Many thanks.

Thanks. How does the emulator mirror the actions of a real life
device? Would this not be an issue in this instance?

My comments were based on device behavior (ADP1 and Google ION).

You are right, the emulator does not reflect it, at least not to my
knowledge :)
