I realized I did not end up including that. Yes, it does come up as expected when tapped. I've actually been looking through the TextView.java code to see if I can implement what is happening when it is touched/clicked... but that's getting a bit over my head.
I will try that, but part of the problem, is when to call clearFocus() and requestFocus(). I've tried that after the dialog is shown, but it doesn't work. I'm pretty close to extending Dialog and trying to give the view focus during it's own onStart() but that seems completely nuts to go through all that. I'm really just wondering if the InputMethodManager is just lagging behind on "noticing" the focus change... but since I don't know how it works... I certainly don't have to have it work this way... it was just something I thought would be much easier than it's become and have gotten wrapped up in finding a solution and wanting to understand how the InputMethodManager is tracking the "active" view.
