↳	android.view.FocusFinder

The algorithm used for finding the next focusable view in a given direction from a view that currently has focus.

Summary

Public methods
`View`	`findNearestTouchable(ViewGroup root, int x, int y, int direction, int[] deltas)` Find the nearest touchable view to the specified view.
`final View`	`findNextFocus(ViewGroup root, View focused, int direction)` Find the next view to take focus in root's descendants, starting from the view that currently is focused.
`View`	`findNextFocusFromRect(ViewGroup root, Rect focusedRect, int direction)` Find the next view to take focus in root's descendants, searching from a particular rectangle in root's coordinates.
`View`	`findNextKeyboardNavigationCluster(View root, View currentCluster, int direction)` Find the root of the next keyboard navigation cluster after the current one.
`static FocusFinder`	`getInstance()` Get the focus finder for this thread.

From class


        
          java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void`	`finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void`	`notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.

`x`	`int`: X coordinate from which to start the search
`y`	`int`: Y coordinate from which to start the search
`direction`	`int`: Direction to look
`deltas`	`int`: Offset from the to the edge of the nearest view. Note that this array may already be populated with values.

Returns
`View`	The nearest touchable view, or null if none exists.

public final View findNextFocus (ViewGroup root, 
                View focused, 
                int direction)

Find the next view to take focus in root's descendants, starting from the view that currently is focused.

Parameters
`root`	`ViewGroup`: Contains focused. Cannot be null.
`focused`	`View`: Has focus now.
`direction`	`int`: Direction to look.

Returns
