How to send key event to an edit text

Question

For example, send a backspace key to the edit text control to remove a character or send a char code like 112 to append a character in the edittext control programmatically.

Answer 1

virsir , I suppose you are looking for dispatching hard keys programmatically.

For that you may try dispatch (KeyEvent.Callback receiver, KeyEvent.DispatcherState state, Object target) with an example at Back and other hard keys: three stories

Hope that helps.
