Question

Ok everyone knows that to hide a keyboard you need to implement:

InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);

Answer 1

In kotlin, we can do the following. No need to iterate all the views. It will work for fragments also.

override fun dispatchTouchEvent(ev: MotionEvent?): Boolean {
    currentFocus?.let {
        val imm: InputMethodManager = getSystemService(
            Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE
        ) as (InputMethodManager)
        imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(it.windowToken, 0)
    }
    return super.dispatchTouchEvent(ev)
}
