Android Question EditText - set to unedited

[jimich]

Hi,

How can I make EditText to not edited?

It can only be edited later when for example at the press of a button.

thanks for kind reply,

You can disable/enable it like this:

EditText1.Enabled = False

You can disable/enable it like this:

EditText1.Enabled = False

Hi NJDude,

Thanks for your fast reply!

But when I set to that, I can't make a SCROLL to that long text, and I need it to scroll.

I have all like these:

edtText.Text=txt
edtText.SingleLine=False
edtText.Wrap=True
edtText.ForceDoneButton=True

And I even try your suggestion also.

And I don't want to change to Label.

You cannot disable the scroll only, you disable the view.

You cannot disable the scroll only, you disable the view.

Hi NJDude,

It's ok for me to have scroll my EditText, and that's what I need.

But when I set EditText (ie. EditText1.Enabled = False), it doesn't scroll.

Maybe, what I need is the virtual keyboard not to appear...

Thanks again,

I think you are not understanding, when a view is disabled means it cannot be used until you enable it again; to make the keyboard not to appear then try the IME library.
