Dianne, Since the Squeak VM which I am porting to Android takes care of editing text itself (by means of Morphic widgets), I just need to pass events from every touch of soft keyboard to the View in focus. No special handling for backspace/numbers/nothing.
The input connection I currently have (inherited from the parent project, I haven't touched it yet) is at its current revision, here: http://tinyurl.com/4628qth With this implementation I have working input for letters, and some special characters, but no input for digits and backspace. There also is a code in the View implementation (also inherited): public boolean onCheckIsTextEditor() { return true; } @Override public InputConnection onCreateInputConnection(EditorInfo outAttrs) { if(!onCheckIsTextEditor()) return null; return new SqueakInputConnection(this, false); } Should I just return null from onCreateInputConnection (or return false from onCheckIsTextEditor)? Thank you. On Wed, Mar 30, 2011 at 12:41 PM, Dianne Hackborn <hack...@android.com> wrote: > I don't understand what you are asking.
