When I copy an email from a website and paste it in my edit text, it comes with the rich formatting and then I tried to remove the formatting
public void afterTextChanged(Editable string)
{
CharacterStyle[] toBeRemovedSpans = string.getSpans(0, string.length(),
MetricAffectingSpan.class);
for (int index = 0; index < toBeRemovedSpans; index++)
string.removeSpan(toBeRemovedSpans[index]);
}
}
This image is before formatting
but it didn't worked for me like their is a huge gap from starting to the text.This image is after applying the formatting
I have gone through whole internet to stop it but didn't find anything. I tried clearing all spans from edit text but it made edit text a way slow than before.

this problem is for every edit text. Thing is when I add text before pasting the text, edit text works without any gap or anything after text is pasted it works weird
