I’d like to know how I change the format of EditText
date-like
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="date"
android:ems="10"
android:id="@+id/dtfinal"
android:layout_below="@+id/textView6"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:text="@string/lbldtfinal"/>
With this format, when the user type the date, the format that appears on the screen and saved to my program is: 14042016. I would like that, when the user is going to type the date, automatically is being added (-), that is, when he type the day 14, appears on the screen for him 14- and then the result of what he typed would be 14-04-2016.
I know you have to change something in xml
, and I know there’s a calendar
and the datapicker
, but I would like something simpler like this example above.
But examples with datapicker would be good for future changes, since explained how I should use it.
James, take a look at this lib: Masked-Edittext
