I'll apologise off the bat for this question as I'm sure it's fairly obvious how to do this. I just can't figure it out and couldn't find anything when searching.
I've got an app that has a predefined layout I've made with the designer. It has edit texts for data input at both the top and bottom of the screen, which just has a set portrait view. When the user clicks in a edit text at the bottom of the screen when the onscreen keyboard appears it just goes over the bottom portion of the screen, so the edit text is no longer visible. I've got past that by using Swiftkey and its floating keyboard, but obviously that isn't an ideal solution. This is all on the Nexus 7 and Galaxy tablets I'm using the app on.
When I do the same thing on another app that I use on my phone it causes the screen to kind of 'move up' effectively cropping the top of the layout so that the edit text is still visible.
I need the same thing to happen on this app on tablets. I don't need (and don't want to use) a Scrollview that contains all the other views. When data input is occurring there is no need for the user to see what is at the top of the screen that has been cropped out.
Can someone please tell me what I'd need to do?
Thanks.
