In my application i have edit text as follows.
EditText1 EditText2
EditText3 EditText4
EditText5 EditText6
in xml i declared android:imeOptions="actionNext"
and also i write
editText1.setOnEditorActionListener(new EditText.OnEditorActionListener() {
public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE || actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_NEXT) {
editText2.requestFocus();
return false;
}
return false;
}
});
Now in virtual key board in edit text 1 if i press next i am getting focus into edit text3 instead of editText2 etc.
How can i get focus on EditText2 instead of edittext3
for my application user only press "Next or done" he never goes for trackball.
You could try adding the android:nextFocusDown
attribute in your EditTexts
.
I just tested your code with the following layout and it worked as expected. (Expected = clicking next on the virtual keyboard the focused was passed to editText2)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_gravity="center"
android:padding="15dip">
<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center" android:paddingLeft="20dip"
android:paddingRight="20dip">
<TableLayout android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center"
android:stretchColumns="*">
<TableRow>
<EditText android:id="@+id/edt1" />
<EditText android:id="@+id/edt2" />
</TableRow>
<TableRow>
<EditText android:id="@+id/edt3" />
<EditText android:id="@+id/edt4" />
</TableRow>
<TableRow>
<EditText android:id="@+id/edt5" />
<EditText android:id="@+id/edt6" />
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Here's also the source

import android.widget.TextView;
public class TestEditTextFocusActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
EditText editText1 = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.edt1);
final EditText editText2 = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.edt2);
editText1.setOnEditorActionListener(new EditText.OnEditorActionListener() {
@Override
public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId,
KeyEvent event) {
if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE ||
actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_NEXT) {
editText2.requestFocus();
return false;
}
return false;
}
});
}
}
ed1.setOnEditorActionListener(new EditText.OnEditorActionListener() {
public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE || actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_NEXT) {
ed1.setNextFocusDownId(R.id.ed2);
return false;
}
return false;
}
});
After writing the above code my issue is solved,Thanks all for your answers and support.
