How to hide android soft keyboard from option dialog click event in titanium?

Question

Hi i have this code in titanium mobile :

function showNetworkEditDialog(/*String*/ type, /*String*/ url, /*Row*/ selectedRow){
        var optionDialog = Ti.UI.createOptionDialog({
            title:'Type : ' + type,
            buttonNames:['Cancel', 'Ok']
        });

        var dialogView = Ti.UI.createView(_styles.get('view.dialog'));

        var lblURL = Ti.UI.createLabel(_globals.get('combine')(_styles.get('label.filter.normal'), {
            text:'URL:',
            left:'4dp'
        }));

        var txtURL = Titanium.UI.createTextField(_globals.get('combine')(_styles.get('textField'), {
            width:'100%',
            height:'40dp',
            value:url
        }));

        dialogView.add(lblURL);
        dialogView.add(txtURL);

        optionDialog.setAndroidView(dialogView);

        txtURL.addEventListener('focus',function(e){
            if (txtURL.getValue().toString() !== ''){
                txtURL.setSelection(txtURL.getValue().length,txtURL.getValue().length);
            }
        });

        optionDialog.addEventListener('click',function(e){
            Ti.UI.Android.hideSoftKeyboard(); // It's not works for me
            if (e.index === 1){ /* Ok Pressed */
                selectedRow._isEdited = true;

                selectedRow._url = txtURL.value.trim();
                selectedRow.children[1].setText(txtURL.value.trim());
            }
        });

        optionDialog.show();
    }

That code is showing an option dialog with textfield inside.. all i want is to hide android soft keyboard when i press OK or CANCEL button on that option dialog..

Does anyone know how to hide android keyboard when i press button OK or Cancel from optionDialog? i've tried use Ti.UI.Android.hideSoftKeyboard() and also use txtUrl.blur() but it not works for me.. Thanks Before..

You can use blur method to hide the softkeyboard.

Try to change your code as follows

optionDialog.addEventListener('click',function(e){
    txtURL.blur(); // Hides the softkeyboard
    if (e.index === 1){ /* Ok Pressed */
          selectedRow._isEdited = true;
          selectedRow._url = txtURL.value.trim();
          selectedRow.children[1].setText(txtURL.value.trim());
    }
});

Hope it helped you
