android - text input type person name isn't working

Question

In my android project I want a textfield of type personname where by default caps lock is activated, however, this code isn\'t working.

Answer 1

If you want all caps, just use android:textAllCaps="true"

Answer 2

Use

android:inputType="textPersonName|textCapWords"

as using only "textPersonName" is not enough so name's first letters would be capitalized.

Similarly with postal addresses:

android:inputType="textPostalAddress|textCapSentences"

Answer 3

I used this for the caps words and no suggestion

android:inputType="textCapWords|textNoSuggestions"

e.g. Tom Hanks

Answer 4

If you try to display person name as normal, try this: android:capitalize="words". If you want to all caps you can change words into characters or doing like Mr. LuxuryMode said!

Edited:

You should remove android:inputType="textPersonName" field. It will work!
