hello,

  i have a dialog with a single autocompletetextview on an activity
that's in
  landscape mode.

  here's how i specify this autocompletetextview:
           <AutoCompleteTextView android:id="@+id/name_text"
                     android:completionThreshold="2"
                     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                     android:layout_marginLeft="5px"
                     android:inputType="textPersonName|textCapWords"
                     android:imeOptions="actionDone"
                     />

  with sdk1.5, when i put my finger on the textview to give it focus,
  the virtual/soft keyboard shows up.  i see the autocomplete mode
still works
  in the context of the keyboard:  as i type, i see suggestions show
  up below the text entry field.  very nice.

  anyhow, when i touch "Done", i get my dialog view back, but the
  autocompleteview dropdown list is still showing!  what's worse,
  when i try to dismiss the dropdown by selecting the same item that's
  already entered in the textfield, some sort of empty menubar shows
  up at the bottom of the screen (which i discovered i can dismiss
  by pressing the back button)!

  1. i would expect that when i finish entering the text using the
   virtual keyboard, by pressing "Done", that the autocomplete drop
   down should no longer show (autodismiss).
   is there any way to tell the view programmatically to not show
   if there's only one match and it's already entered??

   2. i can't figure out why the single line text field morphs into
    what looks like a multiline text area when in 'virtual keyboard'
    mode.

  any help/hints most  appreciated.

thanks,
/ eitan
