I am facing the same problem. > Can you call dismissDropDown() right after you call setText()? This will not work, because the "setText" method is delayed, calling dismissDropDown() right after setText will not do anything, because the dropdown will be not visible yet. I tried every event (afterTextChanged, onTextChanged, beforeTextChanged...) but they all fire sooner than the dropdown is shown. Maybe subclass the AutoCompleteTextView and find the right method to override? Can anyone please help with this?
My scenario - I have a button that instantly sets the text of an autocompletetextview, and then the dropdown shows up and displays the same one entry - which makes no sense, because the text is already set... Thanks.
