Android Question Edittext max length

[Fausto Loss]

Hi,

I want to have an Edit Text with a Character limit of 20. So after 20 characters have been entered, stop the typing.

Dim IME As IME
Dim edtTest As EditText

edtTest.Initialize("")
IME.Initialize("")
IME.SetLengthFilter(edtTest, 20)

I've tried using the above code inside Activity_Create. I load librarie IME.
But nothing happened .... did not introduce an error nor did it prevent the typing.

thanks

If you have the edit text created in the Designer, do not initialize it. That is why you are getting nothing. The below code works.

Sub Globals
    Dim IME As IME
    Dim edtTest As EditText   
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    Activity.LoadLayout("layout1")
    edtTest.Color=Colors.Red
    IME.Initialize("IME")
    IME.SetLengthFilter(edtTest, 20)
End Sub
