Allow EditText To Scroll While Disabled
I have an EditText set up as follows:
Solution 1:
Try to set android:inputType="textMultiLine" on your EditText. Even if I already said in comments: there is a bug on lower API, but with the fixed height maybe it will work.
However, if this doesn't work, you should create another view as TextView with same properties of the EditText and also with visibility to gone, as follow:
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<EditText
android:id="@+id/edittext"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="375dp"
android:ems="10"
android:gravity="top" >
</EditText>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="375dp"
android:ems="10"
android:gravity="top"
android:visibility="gone" >
</TextView>
<Button
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
Then, when you handle the setOnKeyListener method with KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN and KeyEvent.ACTION_ENTER, you can copy your text inside the textview and remove your edittext:
edittext.setOnKeyListener(new OnKeyListener() {
public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if ((event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) && (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER)) {
String st = edittext.getText().toString();
textview.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
textview.setText(st);
return true;
}
return false;
}
});
And you can do a reverse method if you need to rewrite your text.
Hope this helps.
