To answer my own question...
Use TextView.setCompoundDrawables(null, null, null, null) to hide the
cross.
Next thing is to detect when the cross is pressed on.
Currently I do this:
mEditText.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
if (mEditText.getCompoundDrawables()[2] == null) {
// cross is not being shown so no need to handle
return false;
}
if (event.getAction() != MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
// only respond to the down type
return false;
}
if (event.getX() > mEditText.getMeasuredWidth() -
mEditText.getPaddingRight() - x.getIntrinsicWidth()) {
mEditText.setText("");
return true;
}
else {
return false;
}
}
});
This works but feels rather messy to me. Also, I'm not sure about the
mEditText.getPaddingRight()...
Is there a better way?
