EditText weird behaviour in ListView BaseAdapter

android, android-edittext, android-listview, baseadapter

Solution

The implementation of `EditText` has many flaws when used in the `ListView`. Try to add this piece of code in your `onCreate()`:

int apiVersion = android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT;
if (apiVersion >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.ICE_CREAM_SANDWICH)
            getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_PAN);
else
            getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_RESIZE);

Problem

I got a ListView, populated using `BaseAdapter`. In the listview Item there's a numeric EditText: ``` ... <EditText android:id="@+id/edit_quantita" android:layout_width="50dp" android:layout_height="30dp" android:layout_gravity="center" android:layout_marginTop="5dp" android:background="@drawable/edit_quantita" android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal" android:inputType="number" android:text="1" android:textColor="#fff" tools:ignore="HardcodedText" > </EditText> ... ``` When I tap on this EditText the numerical keyboard prompts for an instant, and then it's suddenly overlayed by a regular character keyboard. If I try to write something on this keyboard no text is shown anywhere. Curiously, if I tap again on the Editext it behaves as it should, showing only the working numerical keyboard. What can i do?
