R RB Smissaert Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 6, 2019 #1 I have a edittext that extends to the bottom of the available screen. When the cursor is at the bottom of the edittext then the keyboard will hide the cursor. Is it possible to move the keyboard up, so that the area of the cursor remains visible? I am using the IME library, but the that doesn't seem to provide a solution to this. Alternatively is it possible to put the keyboard on a panel, so I can move it up with the panel? RBS

BillMeyer Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 6, 2019 #2 Check this Tutorial, just below the first screen shot - there's a process you must follow and also there is an issue if you are using "Full Screen Mode" - Remember the entry in the Manifest File https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/handle-the-soft-keyboard-with-the-ime-library.14832/ Update: You should explicitly set the adjustSize mode with the manifest editor. This is done by adding the following manifest editor code (for each activity): Code: Code: Copy SetActivityAttribute(main, android:windowSoftInputMode, adjustResize|stateHidden) Click to expand... So where it says "main" above, you put your activity name that you want to resize. Upvote 0
