Android Question Password Issue (Bug?)

[MrKim]

When an EditText is set to Password it blocks the text in the EditText just fine however the "Word Picker" is still on the screen and offering up words that match what you are typing!

Doesn't work, but I have to say I don't trust what is going on. I am opening an activity. It has 1 Edittext. When it opens I need to open the keyboard, and have it push the control up so it displays above the Keyboard. This is the only way I could get that to happen:

Sub Activity_Resume
    T.Initialize("T", 200)
    T.Enabled = True
'    Sleep(100)
'    CallSubDelayed(Me, "OpenKeyBoard")
End


Sub T_Tick
    T.Enabled = False
    ValueTxt.InputType = Bit.Or(ValueTxt.InputType, 524288)
    ValueTxt.RequestFocus
    'ValueTxt.InputType = Bit.Or(ValueTxt.InputType, 524288)
    Sleep(100)
    IME.ShowKeyboard(ValueTxt)
End Sub

So I tried the Bit.Or in both events to no avail.

You don't need the timer or the CallSubDelayed call.

It is equivalent to:

Sub Activity_Resumt
 Sleep(200)
  ValueTxt.InputType = ..
 Sleep(100)
 IME.ShowKeyboard()

However there are better ways to show the keyboard when the activity starts. Start a new thread if you want to discuss it.

First, I apologize, I sucked you in to what is really two separate topics in the same thread.

ValueTxt.InputType = Bit.Or(ValueTxt.InputType, 524288)

Did not remove the Auto-Suggest.
I tired it in both Activity_Create and Activity_Resume

This is indeed a confusing thread. Please start a new thread and upload a simple project with a single EditText that demonstrates this issue.
