Android Keyboard hides EditText

Question

When I try to write something in an EditText which is at the bottom of the screen, the soft keyboard hides the EditText. How can I resolve this issue? Below is my xml code.

Answer 1

Here is simple solution for Android EditText issue of hiding behind SoftKeypad. Use the code in AndroidManifest.xml file of the project module.

<activity
        android:name="com.example.MainActivity"
        android:label="@string/activity_main"
        android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize|stateHidden" />

This code worked for me.
Inside the manifest file in activity tag add this attribute:

android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize|stateHidden"

There are more such values for this attribute (android:windowSoftInputMode) which will come as recommendation list. You can check with them also.

Answer 2

I handled that by adding ScrollView around View with EditText inside.

<ScrollView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        >
        // Other views
        <EditText ... />
</ScrollView>

Adding tags to Android Manifest didn't help me.

Put this line in your application tag:-

android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustPan"

example:-

<application
    android:name=".application.MyApplication"
    android:allowBackup="false"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:largeHeap="true"
    android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/network_security_config"
    android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
    android:supportsRtl="false"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme"
    android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustPan"
    tools:ignore="GoogleAppIndexingWarning"
    tools:replace="android:supportsRtl,android:allowBackup"
    tools:targetApi="n">

The solution for me was, simply, adding this to the parent layout : android:fitsSystemWindows="true"

Answer 5

Declare windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" in manifest.xml file

<activity
        android:name=".example"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme.NoActionBar"
        android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" />

provide scroll view to the xml layout file

<RelativeLayout
         xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
         xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
         xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="match_parent"
         android:paddingBottom="16dp"
         android:paddingLeft="16dp"
         android:paddingRight="16dp"
         android:paddingTop="16dp"
         android:fitsSystemWindows="true">

<ScrollView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:fillViewport="true"
        android:isScrollContainer="false">

   // add edittext here...

 </ScrollView>
 </RelativeLayout>

In your manifest put this in your perticular activity:

 android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
