If you can, try to extend EditText and override 'onKeyPreIme' method.
@Override
public void setOnEditorActionListener(final OnEditorActionListener listener) {
mEditorListener = listener; //keep it for later usage
super.setOnEditorActionListener(listener);
}
@Override
public boolean onKeyPreIme(final int keyCode, final KeyEvent event) {
if (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK && event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_UP) {
if (mEditorListener != null) {
//you can define and use custom listener,
//OR define custom R.id.<imeId>
//OR check event.keyCode in listener impl
//* I used editor action because of ButterKnife @
mEditorListener.onEditorAction(this, android.R.id.closeButton, event);
}
}
return super.onKeyPreIme(keyCode, event);
}
How can you extend it:
I think, that recalculating of screen height is not 100% successfully as mentioned before. To be clear, overriding of 'onKeyPreIme' is not called on 'hide soft keyboard programatically' methods, BUT if you are doing it anywhere, you should do 'onKeyboardHidden' logic there and do not create a comprehensive solutions.
