I want to disable some buttons into the soft keyboard.
For example, I want to disable the 0
button then my edittext
is empty.
edt.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
@Override
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence cs, int arg1, int arg2, int arg3) {
}
@Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int arg1, int arg2, int arg3){
}
@Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable arg0) {
}
});
You can't, sorry. After all, the input method editor may not have "keys" in the first place.
Specifically I want user can't input a ( , ) character when virtual keyboard is showed up when user focus on a standard android EditText widget.
Then you will have to block the input at the EditText
, by means of an InputFilter
, as is described here:
InputFilter filter = new InputFilter() {
public CharSequence filter(CharSequence source, int start, int end,
Spanned dest, int dstart, int dend) {
for (int i = start; i < end; i++) {
if (!Character.isLetterOrDigit(source.charAt(i))) {
return "";
}
}
return null;
}
};
edit.setFilters(new InputFilter[] { filter });
