member this.CommitText : Java.Lang.ICharSequence * int * Android.Views.InputMethods.TextAttribute -> unit

Parameters

text
ICharSequence

The text to commit. This may include styles.

newCursorPosition
Int32

The new cursor position around the text, in Java characters. If > 0, this is relative to the end of the text - 1; if <= 0, this is relative to the start of the text. So a value of 1 will always advance the cursor to the position after the full text being inserted. Note that this means you can't position the cursor within the text, because the editor can make modifications to the text you are providing so it is not possible to correctly specify locations there.

textAttribute
TextAttribute

The extra information about the text.

Attributes

Remarks

Commit text to the text box and set the new cursor position. This method is used to allow the IME to provide extra information while setting up text.

This method commits the contents of the currently composing text, and then moves the cursor according to newCursorPosition. If there is no composing text when this method is called, the new text is inserted at the cursor position, removing text inside the selection if any.

Calling this method will cause the editor to call #onUpdateSelection(int, int, int, int, int, int) on the current accessibility service after the batch input is over. <strong>Editor authors</strong>, for this to happen you need to make the changes known to the accessibility service by calling InputMethodManager#updateSelection(android.view.View, int, int, int, int), but be careful to wait until the batch edit is over if one is in progress.
