How to show AutoCompleteTextView suggestions in landscape orientation

Question

AutoCompleteTextView displays it's suggestions in a dropdown in the portrait mode.I would like to display suggestions either in a dialog or in a dropdown in the landscape mode,here the EditText and the keyboard go full screen.

Which layout should I use in the Adapter to display hints as a dialog in landscape mode. Im currently using android.R.layout.simple_dropdown_item_1line.

Answer 1

In the layout where you defined your AutoCompleteTextView use android:imeOptions=flagNoExtractUi

The flag prevents the element from going full-screen when it is rotated to landscape mode.
