Hi everyone,
i already looked for something in the forum but i did not find nothing working.
Someone of you knows how can i change the cursor color of an edittext? more precisely, i want to make it invisible.

(note: i use appcompat, i don't know if this information can be useful)

Thanks in advance!

Using this example , I was able to make EditText cursor invisible by setting the color to Transparent...

I'm thinking that once you introduce / load the customised EditText, you would remove the layout EditText ..? .Unsure if using appcompat has an affect

Thanks. With this method i don't have to add the edittext into the designer?
At the moment i style the edittext bycode with the colorDrawable, it interfiers?

After another look at this .... Yes , you don't have to add EditText into the designer.

After the edittext is loaded you can add colordrawable to background for border & color etc...
Unsure if this could be done initially within the manifest ...
