Setting EditText imeOptions to actionNext has no effect

Question

I have a fairly complex (not really) xml layout file. One of the views is a LinearLayout (v1) with two children: an EditText(v2) and another Linear

Answer 1

Finally i have got sure solution for this issue Just add these 3 lines in your edit text and it will be working fine

        android:maxLines="1"
        android:inputType="text"
        android:imeOptions="actionDone"

Here you can add maxLines according to your requirement. Do not use singleLine as it is deprecated now. Good luck!

Answer 2

Just add android:maxLines="1" & android:inputType="text" to your EditText. It will work!! :)

Answer 3

android:singleLine has been deprecated, it is better to combine android:maxLines="1" with android:inputType="text". This would be the code:

<EditText
        android:id="@+id/editText"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
        android:maxLines="1"
        android:inputType="text"
        />

Answer 4

Key here is to set input type and imeOptions attributes

<EditText 
   android:inputType="number"
   android:maxLines="1"
   android:imeOptions="actionSearch" />

Answer 5

Only this worked for me.

Change it:

android:maxLines="1"
android:inputType="text"
android:imeOptions="actionNext"

on that:

android:singleLine="true"
android:inputType="text"
android:imeOptions="actionNext"

Answer 6

<EditText
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/auth_register_re_password"
    android:hint="Enter Password Again"
    android:imeActionLabel="login"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:imeOptions="actionUnspecified"
    android:inputType="textPassword"
    android:maxLines="1"/>
