An EditorInfo describes several attributes of a text editing object that an input method is communicating with (typically an EditText), most importantly the type of text content it contains and the current cursor position.

Constructors

EditorInfo()
EditorInfo(IntPtr, JniHandleOwnership)	A constructor used when creating managed representations of JNI objects; called by the runtime.

Properties

ActionId	If `#actionLabel` has been given, this is the id for that command when the user presses its button that is delivered back with `InputConnection#performEditorAction(int) InputConnection.performEditorAction()`.
ActionLabel	In some cases an IME may be able to display an arbitrary label for a command the user can perform, which you can specify here.
Class	Returns the runtime class of this `Object`. (Inherited from Object)
ContentMimeTypes	List of acceptable MIME types for `InputConnection#commitContent(InputContentInfo, int, Bundle)`.
Creator	Used to make this class parcelable.
Extras	Any extra data to supply to the input method.
FieldId	Identifier for the editor's field.
FieldName	Additional name for the editor's field.
Handle	The handle to the underlying Android instance. (Inherited from Object)
HintLocales	List of the languages that the user is supposed to switch to no matter what input method subtype is currently used.
HintText	The "hint" text of the text view, typically shown in-line when the text is empty to tell the user what to enter.
ImeOptions	Extended type information for the editor, to help the IME better integrate with it.
InitialCapsMode	The capitalization mode of the first character being edited in the text.
InitialSelEnd	The text offset of the end of the selection at the time editing begins; -1 if not known.
InitialSelStart	The text offset of the start of the selection at the time editing begins; -1 if not known.
InitialToolType	Returns the initial `MotionEvent#ACTION_UP` tool type `MotionEvent#getToolType(int)` responsible for focus on the current editor. -or- Set the initial `MotionEvent#ACTION_UP` tool type `MotionEvent#getToolType(int)`.
InputType	The content type of the text box, whose bits are defined by `InputType`.
JniIdentityHashCode	(Inherited from Object)
JniPeerMembers
Label	A label to show to the user describing the text they are writing.
PackageName	Name of the package that owns this editor.
PeerReference	(Inherited from Object)
PrivateImeOptions	A string supplying additional information options that are private to a particular IME implementation.
SupportedHandwritingGesturePreviews	Returns the combination of Stylus handwriting gesture preview types supported by the current `Editor`. -or- Set the Handwriting gesture previews supported by the current `Editor`.
SupportedHandwritingGestures	Returns the combination of Stylus handwriting gesture types supported by the current `Editor`. -or- Set the Handwriting gestures supported by the current `Editor`.
ThresholdClass	This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.
ThresholdType	This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Methods

GetInitialSelectedText(Int32)	Gets the selected text, if any.
GetInitialSelectedTextFormatted(Int32)	Gets the selected text, if any.
GetInitialSurroundingText(Int32, Int32, Int32)	Gets the surrounding text around the current cursor, with <var>beforeLength</var> characters of text before the cursor (start of the selection), <var>afterLength</var> characters of text after the cursor (end of the selection), and all of the selected text.
GetInitialTextAfterCursor(Int32, Int32)	Get <var>length</var> characters of text after the current cursor position.
