How do I restrict my EditText input to numerical (possibly decimal and signed) input?

Try using TextView.setRawInputType() it corresponds to the android:inputType attribute.

– GiantMarshmallow Aug 3 at 1:50 1 using your example code: edit. SetRawInputType(InputType. TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER | InputType.

TYPE_NUMBER_FLAG_DECIMAL); – Dan S Aug 3 at 4:02 (Please excuse my cursing, as it is necessary to convey my expression.) Holy fuck, you can actually do this?! Wow, I never realized that the | in the XML attributes were really OR operators. Anyway, your solution didn't work as expected, so I played around with it.

Turns out, using setInputType(int) instead of setRawInputType(int) gave me the desired output. – GiantMarshmallow Aug 3 at 4:14 I just picked the setter associated with the android input type. I'm happy you found it and I was close.

Yep, its just a bit mask with flags, not all of them but many are. – Dan S Aug 3 at 4:19.

I have read Android: Limiting EditText to numbers and How do I show the number keyboard on an EditText in android. Unfortunately, none of them seems to fit my needs. I want to restrict my EditText input to only numbers.

However, I also want to allow signed and/or decimal input. With this, my EditText merrily restricts all input to numerical digits. Unfortunately, it doesn't allow anything else, like the decimal point.

If I change that line to edit. TYPE_NUMBER_FLAG_DECIMAL), the EditText accepts all input (which isn't what I want...). That didn't work either (the EditText accepted all input as usual).

So, how do I do this?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
