I should describe what my complete scenario is. I have several Fragments in my Activity, all but one of which are hidden at any given time. When a Fragment with an EditText is getting hidden, I want to ideally keep the virtual keyboard if the next Fragment being unhidden also has an EditText. The virtual keyboard should get hidden if the next Fragment being unhidden does not have any EditText. Trying to keep track of which Fragments have EditTexts is certainly not hard, but it seems surprising that I should have to do this manually. I was expecting a call to clearFocus on the View in the Fragment being hidden would automatically do the right thing.
