如何按照我的意图使android：textIsSelectable =“ true”工作？

Question

I'm having trouble making my textview editable - while I can make it editable, I can't pass the text to another activity via an intent .

In the xml of my View activity, for my textViewComment textbox, I have:

<TextView
android:id="@+id/textViewComment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="@drawable/textboxes_for_contact"
android:textIsSelectable="true"

The text in the textbox is indeed selectable, I am able to copy it with a long press.

However, I have an Edit activity - when an edit button is clicked in View activity, the text in textViewComment should be passed to this Edit activity with an intent . Instead, the Edittext in my EditView is empty.

When I remove android:textIsSelectable="true" the text is passed via the intent successfully. But... I can't edit it in the textview .

I also tried it programmatically with commentname.setTextIsSelectable(true); but this gives the same problem.

In ViewContact class I have

i.putExtra("comment", commentname.getText());

In EditContact class:

comment = i.getStringExtra("comment");

The xml in my EditContact class for textViewComment is:

        <EditText
            android:id="@+id/textViewComment"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:inputType="textCapSentences"
            android:background="@drawable/textboxes_for_contact"
            android:maxLength="360"
            />

Any idea how I can make the text in ViewContact selectable while also passing the intent successfully? Is this a known issue?

Replace:

 i.putExtra("comment", commentname.getText());

with:

 i.putExtra("comment", commentname.getText().toString());

and see if you have better luck.
