EditText multiline with "next view button" instead of "new line button"

Question

Goal is to use multiline EditText with android:inputType="textMultiLine" and with "next view button" such as android:inputType="text" (see picture 2).

<EditText
    android:id="@+id/addAffirmationContent"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:inputType="textMultiLine"
    android:maxLength="255"
    android:imeOptions="flagNoExtractUi" />

I tried many combinations with: android:inputType, singleLine, nextFocusDown, nextFocusUp, nextFocusLeft, nextFocusRight, nextFocusForward, imeOptions, lines, but android:inputType="textMultiLine" always forces new line button.

Tested on Nexus 5 Android 7.

Picture 2.: next view button:

Answer 1

I think what you are looking for is the same as in this answer:

In code:

editText.setImeOptions(EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_NEXT);
editText.setRawInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT);

and in xml:

android:inputType="textMultiLine"
