Wrong selection when another TextWatcher was added

[Parmakli]

Thanx for the library! For example I have two maskedEditTexts one below other and for the first one I just add another empty TextWatcher

maskedEditText.addTextChangedListener(object :TextWatcher{
            override fun afterTextChanged(s: Editable?) {
            }

            override fun beforeTextChanged(s: CharSequence?, start: Int, count: Int, after: Int) {
            }

            override fun onTextChanged(s: CharSequence?, start: Int, before: Int, count: Int) {
            }
        })

I receive such behaviour: Both have mask and hint +7 ### ###-##-## Workaround is to set empty string as text programmatically before any user action.

Hello, I can't reproduce this behavior, can you send a whole code example?

Of course, here is layout activity_main.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:id="@+id/activity_main"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    tools:context="com.example.igor.myapplication.MainActivity">

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Hello World!" />

    <com.vicmikhailau.maskededittext.MaskedEditText
        android:id="@+id/maskedEditText"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_centerInParent="true"
        app:mask="+7 ### ###-##-##"
        android:hint="+7 ### ###-##-##"
        android:inputType="phone"/>

    <com.vicmikhailau.maskededittext.MaskedEditText
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_centerInParent="true"
        app:mask="+7 ### ###-##-##"
        android:hint="+7 ### ###-##-##"
        android:inputType="phone"
        android:layout_below="@+id/maskedEditText"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"/>
</RelativeLayout>

And here is MainActivity

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
        title = "MaskedEditText"

        maskedEditText.addTextChangedListener(object :TextWatcher{
            override fun afterTextChanged(s: Editable?) {
            }

            override fun beforeTextChanged(s: CharSequence?, start: Int, count: Int, after: Int) {
            }

            override fun onTextChanged(s: CharSequence?, start: Int, before: Int, count: Int) {
            }
        })
    }
}

And that's from gradle

compile ("com.vicmikhailau:MaskedEditText:2.0.4"){
        exclude group: 'com.android.support'
}

I have the same problem even without TextWatcher

<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginEnd="@dimen/filter_fragment_margin_horizontal"
            android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/filter_fragment_margin_horizontal"
            android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/filter_fragment_margin_horizontal"
            android:layout_marginStart="@dimen/filter_fragment_margin_horizontal"
            android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/filter_fragment_margin_top"
            android:textColorHint="@color/filter_text_passive_color">

            <com.vicmikhailau.maskededittext.MaskedEditText
                        android:id="@+id/phone_edittext"
                        android:layout_width="match_parent"
                        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                        android:background="@drawable/edit_txt_bg"
                        android:hint="@string/phone"
                        android:inputType="number"
                        android:paddingTop="@dimen/filter_fragment_margin_horizontal"
                        android:textColor="@color/filter_text_active_color"
                        android:textSize="@dimen/filter_text_main"
                        app:mask="+7(###)###-##-##" />

</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
