imeOptions "actionNext" programmatically - how to jump to next field?

Question

In layout XML it is possible to specify android:imeOptions="actionNext" which adds Next button in virtual keyboard and by clicking on it - focus jumps to the next field.

How to do this programmatically - e.g. based on some event trigger focus to go to the next field?

Answer 1

Search for the next focusable field and than invoke requestFocus().

TextView nextField = (TextView)currentField.focusSearch(View.FOCUS_RIGHT);
nextField.requestFocus();
