Settings for the ENTER key icon</strong></p></p><p><p>The ENTER key of the soft keyboard displays the "done" text by default, and we know that pressing ENTER indicates that the predecessor work is ready and what to go for. For example, in a search, we enter the text to search for, and then press ENTER to go to search, but the default enter to display the "done" text, looking not very suitable, does not conform to the semantics of the search, if you can display "search" two words or display a search icon is much better. It turns out that our ideas are reasonable and Android also provides us with such features. Change the default "done" text by setting Android:imeoptions. Here are some common constant values:</p></p><p><p>(1) actionunspecified unspecified, corresponding constant editorinfo.ime_action_unspecified effect:</p></p><p><p>(2) actionnone no action, corresponding to the constant Editorinfo.ime_action_none effect:</p></p><p><p>(3) actiongo, corresponding to the constant Editorinfo.ime_action_go effect:</p></p><p><p>(4) Actionsearch search, corresponding to the constant Editorinfo.ime_action_search effect:</p></p><p><p>(5) actionsend send, corresponding constant editorinfo.ime_action_send effect:</p></p><p><p>(6) actionnext next, The corresponding constant Editorinfo.ime_action_next effect:</p></p><p><p>(7) Actiondone complete, corresponding to the constant Editorinfo.ime_action_done effect:</p></p><p><p></p></p><p><p><strong>11.
