Question

I am trying to capture when an edittext field which is disabled gets pressed.
(I only want to change it, I dont want text inserted into it).
I assigned an onClickListener to it but it is not called.. Any suggestions ?
Is there any other event I can listen to ?

final EditText field = column.get(i);
field.setEnabled(false);
field.setClickable(true);
field.setFocusable(false);
field.setFocusableInTouchMode(false);

field.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                ((EditText)v).setText("a");

            }
        });

Thanks !

You cant pass a click-event when a View is disabled.

Therefore, try changing:

field.setEnabled(false);

To:

field.setEnabled(true);
