How to replicate android:editable="false" in code?
In the layout you can set the EditText widget to be non-editable via the android:editable attribute.
How can I do this in code? I need to make the EditText widget to be editable depending on conditions.
editText.setFocusable(false);
editText.setClickable(false);
this ensure the EditText control can't be selected and focused, so it can't be edited.
I just tried this myself,
To disable editing text:
.setFocusable(false);
this also sets setFocusableInTouchMode to false!
To enable editing text:
setFocusableInTouchMode(true);
this also sets setFocusable to true;
