hiding edittext & Background Image retraction in <AbsoluteLayout>

for design layout in my app, i use <AbsoluteLayout> for my main layout & set a image for background such :

    android:background="@drawable/main"

But in typing in edittext(s) i have tow problem:

  1. hiding edittext(s)

  2. Background Image retraction

  3. Problem with textview, when i change position with mouse(it's right when i change X/Y position in Properties)

    this problems is from my layout designing or another Bugs?

Solution

  • Stop using AbsoluteLayout, it was deprecated 4 years ago and had a lot of troubles like that one.

    Use a RelativeLayout instead:
