I want to add comma when I enter double space from keyboard in multiautocompletetextview. I search lots of thing in google. But can't reach my goal. I want to replace comma for double space entering by user.
So obviously, I must have to write something logic in ontextChange() or OnAfterTextChanged() in addtextwatcher listener.but i do't got event of after add 2 space.
I have already used comma tokenizer when select word from list.but i want to add comma when user entering double space using keypad.
Thanks in advance
The simplest solution i can provide you is to use String.replace()
, Here is small code snippet to help you
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
edt.addTextChangedListener(textWatcher);
}
And TextWatcher
which you are going to set on EditText
TextWatcher textWatcher = new TextWatcher() {
@Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence charSequence, int i, int i1, int i2) {
}
@Override
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence charSequence, int i, int i1, int i2) {
edt.removeTextChangedListener(textWatcher);
String text = edt.getText().toString();
text = text.replace(" ", ",");
edt.setText(text);
edt.setSelection(text.length());
edt.addTextChangedListener(textWatcher);
}
@Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable editable) {
}
};
