android - TextView.setVisibility(GONE) isn't working -

i have seekbar textview shown above thumb when it's moving (as tooltip). also, there's edittext below seekbar:

when i'm not moving seekbar's thumb, textview isn't shown. appears when move thumb or change number in edittext. want disappear when stop moving thumb, or after finish typing in edittext.

i got disappear on stop-tracking problem sticks there if type in edittext.

i tried:

@override public void aftertextchanged(editable arg0) {     textview.setvisibility(gone); } 

but doesn't seem work. when type appears, , sticks there, until move thumb.

how can disappear after finish typing?

you can try this:

    edittext.addtextchangedlistener(new textwatcher() {                  @override                 public void ontextchanged(charsequence s, int start, int before, int count) {                 }                   @override                 public void aftertextchanged(editable str) {                     new handler().postdelayed(new runnable() {                         @override                         public void run() {                            textview.setvisibility(view.gone);                         }                     }, 500);                  }                   @override                 public void beforetextchanged(charsequence s, int start, int count,                                               int after) {                     textview.setvisibility(view.visible);                 }              }); 

you can add handler post delay of 500 ms give more proper view.
