Copy paste option not appearing for EditText

Question

I have created a Activity which extends FixedExpandableListActivity . In my Activity, I am having EditText where in after entering some text, and doing a long press on the EditText , copy paste option is not appearing. Doing multiple taps on the EditText , copy paste option pops up and disappear.

Issue is observed on 4.1.2.

Can some one please help out how to fix this issue.

Answer 1

My gremlin for this problem was a combination of windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" and a View.OnLayoutChangeListener which was reparenting the EditText , for unrelated reasons. (Removing the EditText caused the copy/paste actions to disappear, sensibly enough.) Hard to track down.
