Have been struggling with the same problem. Solved by a combination of methods suggested above. I set the input type for my editor to NULL only for the time of processing the touch event. Like this -
MyEditor.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener(){ @Override public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) { int inType = MyEditor.getInputType(); // backup the input type MyEditor.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_NULL); // disable soft input MyEditor.onTouchEvent(event); // call native handler MyEditor.setInputType(inType); // restore input type return true; // consume touch even } }); Works like a charm.
