When do you want to hide the keyboard? When the user clicks on it?

Did you try to set InputType to INPUT_TYPE_NONE? The keyboard will not show at all.

If you don't want to show a keyboard at all then setting the input type is the standard way.

I'm a bit lost...

I have two text boxes... EDITTEXT1 and EDITTEXT2

When they enter text into EDITTEXT1 and press ENTER it jumps to EDITTEXT2 which is fine. When the enter text into EDITTEXT2 and press ENTER I would like the keyboard to go away so they can see the screen clearly, and click on a CALCULATE button that becomes hidden.

So... when ENTER is pressed on EDITTEXT2... how do I do a keyboard.hide kind of function?

Thanks,
Jerry

Like this:

B4X:

Sub EditText2_EnterPressed

    Dim IME1 As IME

    IME1.Initialize("")

    IME1.HideKeyboard
   
End Sub
