What is Manifest File?

[ciginfo]

Hello,
What is Manifest File?
The keyboard hides EditText which is located at the bottom of the screen. I read in the forum I have to add "android: windowSoftInputMode = "stateHidden | adjustPan" " in the Manifest File and EditText moves upward.
How to add this in Manifest File? Where is Manifest File? Or is there another way?

The manifest file is in the "...\<app Name>\Objects" directory and it's called "AndroidManifest.xml"

Just to add to what NJDude said, you need to add "|adjustPan" to whatever is in android:windowSoftInputMode.

Normally the activity node we're interested in will look like this:

<activity android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden" android:launchMode="singleTop" android:name="mainmenu" android:label="mainMenu" android:screenOrientation="portrait"></activity>

you want to make it look like this:

<activity android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustPan" android:launchMode="singleTop" android:name="mainmenu" android:label="mainMenu" android:screenOrientation="portrait"></activity>

You have to select "Do not overwrite manifest file" as well to ensure your changes are kept.
