CurrencyEditText setSelection problem

[yeulucay]

Hi, I am trying to place the cursor rightmost position at the first focus. I get the content length correctly and call setSelection method. But doesn't work for me.

binding.cet.setSelection(binding.cet.getText().length()); // I call it on focus

The cursor should automatically force itself to the rightmost position by default, so you shouldn't have to call set selection. What behavior are you seeing?

First of all, thank you for your fast response. I aligned the text to the right position. And when I touch the input, the cursor is placed onto the 0 position (leftmost) and value changes different. Let me explain; I will text 1,2,3. and it is expected to be $1.23 but,

• $|0.00 (content aligned to right) I touched and cursor on the 0 position
• $|10.00 here, cursor goes rightmost automatically $10.00|
• $100.02|
• $1000.23 final result.

Can you include the code you're using to set up the view? Something seems like it's not being initialized correctly. That's not how the view should be working

I think, it works very well except one thing. The content text of the input is aligned left by default. So, when you touch (focus) to the input, the cursor takes place at the rightmost position by default. And after all changes, the input re-place the cursor to the end everytime. But only exception is, when you set gravity=end, it aligns the content text to the end of the input. And, when you touch (focus) the input, it places the cursor the the head. I mean, you should align the cursor to the rightmost when the first focus.

<com.blackcat.currencyedittext.CurrencyEditText android:id="@+id/ceCharge" style="@style/EditTextStyle" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="50dp" android:gravity="end" !!!! HERE aligns content text to the end (this is what I need) android:inputType="numberDecimal" android:paddingStart="15dp" android:paddingEnd="15dp" android:textSize="20sp" />

Aha! So yes, that's a bug then. No eta if/when I'll be able to get to it. I'm able to help support the library via email but it's been admittedly too long since I've had time to work on the code itself.

If you can come up with a solution that doesn't change the behavior when gravity is not involved, please feel free to submit a PR.
