Detect dismiss keyboard event in Android
How about creating a subclass of EditText and overriding its onKeyPreIme method
/**
* This class overrides the onKeyPreIme method to dispatch a key event if the
* KeyEvent passed to onKeyPreIme has a key code of KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK.
* This allows key event listeners to detect that the soft keyboard was
* dismissed.
*
*/
public class ExtendedEditText extends EditText {
public ExtendedEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}
public ExtendedEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public ExtendedEditText(Context context) {
super(context);
}
@Override
public boolean onKeyPreIme(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) {
dispatchKeyEvent(event);
return false;
}
return super.onKeyPreIme(keyCode, event);
}
}
Soft keyboard open and close listener in an activity in Android
This only works when android:windowSoftInputMode
of your activity is set to adjustResize
in the manifest. You can use a layout listener to see if the root layout of your activity is resized by the keyboard.
I use something like the following base class for my activities:
public class BaseActivity extends Activity {
private ViewTreeObserver.OnGlobalLayoutListener keyboardLayoutListener = new ViewTreeObserver.OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
@Override
public void onGlobalLayout() {
int heightDiff = rootLayout.getRootView().getHeight() - rootLayout.getHeight();
int contentViewTop = getWindow().findViewById(Window.ID_ANDROID_CONTENT).getTop();
LocalBroadcastManager broadcastManager = LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(BaseActivity.this);
if(heightDiff <= contentViewTop){
onHideKeyboard();
Intent intent = new Intent("KeyboardWillHide");
broadcastManager.sendBroadcast(intent);
} else {
int keyboardHeight = heightDiff - contentViewTop;
onShowKeyboard(keyboardHeight);
Intent intent = new Intent("KeyboardWillShow");
intent.putExtra("KeyboardHeight", keyboardHeight);
broadcastManager.sendBroadcast(intent);
}
}
};
private boolean keyboardListenersAttached = false;
private ViewGroup rootLayout;
protected void onShowKeyboard(int keyboardHeight) {}
protected void onHideKeyboard() {}
protected void attachKeyboardListeners() {
if (keyboardListenersAttached) {
return;
}
rootLayout = (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.rootLayout);
rootLayout.getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener(keyboardLayoutListener);
keyboardListenersAttached = true;
}
@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
if (keyboardListenersAttached) {
rootLayout.getViewTreeObserver().removeGlobalOnLayoutListener(keyboardLayoutListener);
}
}
}
The following example activity uses this to hide a view when the keyboard is shown and show it again when the keyboard is hidden.
The xml layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/rootLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ScrollView
android:id="@+id/scrollView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
>
<!-- omitted for brevity -->
</ScrollView>
<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/bottomContainer"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
>
<!-- omitted for brevity -->
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
And the activity:
public class TestActivity extends BaseActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.test_activity);
attachKeyboardListeners();
}
@Override
protected void onShowKeyboard(int keyboardHeight) {
// do things when keyboard is shown
bottomContainer.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
@Override
protected void onHideKeyboard() {
// do things when keyboard is hidden
bottomContainer.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
}
