Interestingly though: when I set my ListView visibility to View.INVISIBLE in my first activity, then the layout doesn not get moved up anymore!
This is my layout/xml: 1) http://pastebin.com/5zzVxjbK ListView where layouts is been moved up by the softkeyboard 2) http://pastebin.com/KFtPuHvP ScrollView/LinearLayout, where layout remains fix by the softkeyboard On Sep 6, 8:48 pm, Mathias Lin <[email protected]> wrote: > How does Android determine whether to move the layout up when showing > the softkeyboard? > > Note: I am aware that the activity property > android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize|adjustResize| > adjustUnspecified" exists, as described > herehttp://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.h... > , but in my case it doesn't seem to have any effect.
