Dialog is partially shown when SoftKeyBoard is shown

I have a custom Dialog as shown below:

enter image description here

When I click on the Edit Text, The dialog is shifted upwards but half of the dialog becomes invisible as shown below: enter image description here

I verified the issue on Android ICS and Gingerbread but it doesn't happen on Android Lollipop.

I appreciate your help for figuring out why.

Here is the custom dialog layout XML:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/layoutChatInGame"
android:layout_width="305dp"
android:layout_height="190dp"

Solution

  • Try to use also android:imeOptions="flagNoFullscreen" in your .xml. Recommend you to make some tests, using it with and without flagNoExtractUi. Please give me some feedback.
