Disable EditText but Clickable (DEC)

I tried to make EditText uneditable with this code:

<EditText android:id="@+id/outputResult"
          android:inputType="text"
          android:editable="false"
          android:layout_width="fill_parent"
          android:layout_height="wrap_content"
          android:text="@string/result" />

I had to add the following line to make it uneditable, but it didn't seem to have any effect.

android:focusable="false" 

Solutip

android:editable="false" should work,  but it's outdated , you should use  android:inputType="none" instead.

You can also do it programmatically.

EditText mEdit = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.yourid);
mEdit.setEnabled(false);

This is also a viable alternative:

EditText mEdit = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.yourid);
mEdit.setKeyListener(null);

If you are going to make your EditText uneditable, may I suggest using a TextView widget instead of EditText, as using EditText seems pointless in that case.

But you also need to consider that when using the setEnable / isEnable function, it will make EditText not work at all, and it cannot even respond to click events, therefore we suggest you use the following method.

android:inputType="none"
android:enabled="false"
android:cursorVisible="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="false"
