Can You Intercept The Long Press On Menu?

I'm using what should be pretty simple code, but it just doesn't want to work. Does the OS block intercepting this? @Override public boolean onKeyLongPress(int keyCode, KeyEvent ev

Solution 1:

You must call startTracking() on the event from the normal onKeyPress() method:

@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
    if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MENU) {
        event.startTracking();
        returntrue;
    }
    return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}

See also a question I asked and answered some time ago.

Solution 2:

If it is ListView, You need to use onCreateContextMenu.

publicvoidonCreateContextMenu(ContextMenu menu, View view, ContextMenuInfo menuInfo)
