Hello,

I have the following in my layout XML file. Basically I want the address
EditText to take up all the space available below the other name EditText
so that the first one is a one line edit text and the second one is a multiline
edit text. However, when I run my application the cursor in the second EditText
is placed in the Middle of the widget. I want the cursor at the top. I have seen
this done in some apps on android market but I cannot figure out how to do it.

<LinearLayout
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
  android:orientation="vertical"
  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
  android:layout_height="fill_parent">
  <EditText
      android:id="@+id/name"
      android:layout_width="fill_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
   <EditText
      android:id="@+id/address"
      android:inputType="textMultiLine"
      android:layout_width="fill_parent"
      android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
  </LinearLayout>

Any ideas on how to achieve the cursor placement at the very top rather than
in the middle.

Currently, when the keyboard shows up I cannot see the text (which ends up
being typed under the keyboard). Ideally I would like the widget to always be
above the android soft keyboard.

Thanks for your feedback,

John Goche
