I have an activity in which there are several buttons and a spinner
containing a list of preset values. Unfortunately, if the user accidentally
or mistakenly taps the spinner, the soft keyboard appears. Why? There is
nowhere on the screen that expects typed input from the user.
More to the point, how can I prevent this from happening? After some
research, I tried adding the following code:
m_TricksPicker.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
@Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
InputMethodManager imm=(InputMethodManager)getApplicationContext().
getSystemService(getApplicationContext().INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(getParent().getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(), 0);
return false;
}}) ;
Unfortunately, this throws a null pointer exception. Any other suggestions
how to stop the keyboard from appearing (and I'd really like to understand
why the system thinks it's necessary in the first place, when no user input
is required)?
