Hi Everyone,
I'm using the masked MaskedEditText view and have sever of those views on a panel. Some of them are laid out like this:
I'm trying to force focus onto a particular MaskedEditText view when the user taps the "Next" button from the soft keyboard.
I used this coding to make sure there is a "Next" button showing up in the soft keyboard by setting SingleLine to True:
When pressing the "Next" button from the keyboard, focus goes from "Address1" over to "State" when it should be going over to "Address2". I added this coding which I thought would force the focus onto "Address2":
Instead of the focus going over to "Address2", I noticed 2 sets of cursor flashing. One flashing cursor was in "Address1" and another flashing cursor was in "Address2". When I typed into the keyboard, focus was still on "Address1" because the characters were being entered into "Address1" even though both views had flashing cursors in them.
Is there a way to get focus onto "Address2" with this scenario?
I also noticed then both cursors are flashing, I can tap other MaskedEditText views and the 2nd flashing cursor still flashes in "Address2" and if I tab "Address2" and try to enter text, focus does not move away from any other MaskedEditText view. It's like "Address2" becomes disabled somehow unless I exit from the screen with those views and go back on that screen.
Thanks
