Android: How to do create custom EditText with a clickable arrow on the right
I would like to have an EditText with one modification: on the right but still inside the EditText there should an arrow pointing downwards that I can set OnClickListener
to so that when the user clicks on the arrow it displays a menu.
What is the best way to do this?

Answer 1
Do you mean something like this ?
Add the arrow by setting the drawable right attribute
android:drawableRight="@drawable/right"
to your EditText
. Then you would need to set an OnTouchListener
to get the events.
Answer 2
I did this by putting EditText
and a Button into RelativeLayout
, the Button (which has custom background drawable
) is overlapping the EditBox
.
When user clicks on it, the EditBox
doesn't receive the click event
.
Answer 3
Sounds like a combo box. If you look at the "Building Custom Components" section of the Dev Guide, they mention combo box briefly, but give details on how to build any custom component.

android - How to set a clickable region for an ImageView?
I have 2 ImageViews which have AnimationDrawable backgrounds to animate a box opening and closing when you click on it. The 2 images are slightly overlapping (the transparent area) so they can be closer together.

Is there a way to set a clickable region of an ImageView?...
