AppCompatEditText focus Issue

Question

I have long form (LinearLayout as root) which consist of EditTexts and TextView. Now Issue i am facing is : After clicking the Edit Text, if i clicking on textviews then the focus of an edit text is not clearing. Hence, screen scroll to that edit text due to focus.

I have tried solution - android:focusableInTouchMode="true" in parent layout but no luck.

I have attached an image showing an issue. I have clicked on consulting doctor field which is a TextView but focus is till on email Edit text.

Please help me with some solution. Thanks.

Wrap your EditText inside FrameLayout as shown below

<FrameLayout

        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants"
        android:focusable="true"
        android:focusableInTouchMode="true">

        <EditText
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
    </FrameLayout>

But there are more than one editext and texview (Like form) in random manner. If i wrap every editText inside frame layout than it would make layout mess up. what say? – young_08 Jun 14 '17 at 06:59
Yes, You need to wrap up every EditText individually. – Darish Jun 14 '17 at 07:01

public static void hideSoftKeyboard (View view)

{

InputMethodManager imm = InputMethodManager)getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(view.getApplicationWindowToken(), 0);

}

//Call this method on textview click
