Android Question Next key on softkeyboard not showing

[Duncan H Williamson]

Hi All,
I have page with three edittext boxes, 1 single line and the others multiline.
the first textbox is the single line and the softkeyboard ( which is displayed on opening the page with IME ) shows the next button.
however the multiline ones do not. I have searched high and low for a work around but have found nothing but a statement that the next key does not show for multiline edittext.
Is there a way around this ? any thoughts/asistance gratefully recieved

Regards

Duncan

Found a work around for those who experience a similar problem..
I used a multiline label in place of the multiline edittext. in the edittext text change event i set label.text = edittext.text.
I now dont get a return key (which is not important ) but I do get a next key and a usable user interface, I just need to tidy up a few things to enable the user to go back and edit the text
