Android.Views.View.DispatchKeyEventPreIme Method
Dispatch a key event before it is processed by any input method associated with the view hierarchy.

Syntax

[Android.Runtime.Register("dispatchKeyEventPreIme", "(Landroid/view/KeyEvent;)Z", "GetDispatchKeyEventPreIme_Landroid_view_KeyEvent_Handler")]
public virtual bool DispatchKeyEventPreIme (KeyEvent e)

Parameters

e
The key event to be dispatched.

Returns

Documentation for this section has not yet been entered.

Remarks

Dispatch a key event before it is processed by any input method associated with the view hierarchy. This can be used to intercept key events in special situations before the IME consumes them; a typical example would be handling the BACK key to update the application's UI instead of allowing the IME to see it and close itself.
