I have a custom Dialog as shown below:
When I click on the Edit Text, The dialog is shifted upwards but half of the dialog becomes invisible as shown below:
I verified the issue on Android ICS and Gingerbread but it doesn't happen on Android Lollipop.
I appreciate your help for figuring out why.
Here is the custom dialog layout XML:

Try to use also android:imeOptions="flagNoFullscreen" in your .xml. Recommend you to make some tests, using it with and without flagNoExtractUi. Please give me some feedback.
