How to hide keyboard when dialog is open

HideKeyboard method not working when dialog is open in other cases works fine.

I tried every popular hideKeyboard method on stack non of them works.

fun hideKeyboard(activity: Activity) {
    if(activity == null) return
    val imm = activity.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE) as InputMethodManager
    imm?.hideSoftInputFromWindow(activity.currentFocus?.windowToken, InputMethodManager.HIDE_NOT_ALWAYS)
}

I am not getting any error but keyboard won't close.

       try {

        if (view != null) {
            InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) context.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
            imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(view.getWindowToken(), 0);

  1. First of all you will call hide keyboard method.I have show type of hide keyBoard methods given in below.If you want use your like methods.
    public void hideKeyboard(View view, Context context) {
            try {
                if (view != null) {
                    InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) 
                    context.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
                    imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(view.getWindowToken(), 0);
                }
            } catch (Exception Ex) {
            }
        }
    
        public static void hideKeyboard(Activity activity) {
            InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) activity.getSystemService(Activity.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
            View view = activity.getCurrentFocus();
            if (view == null) {
                view = new View(activity);
            }
            imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(view.getWindowToken(), 0);
        }
  1. Then you will call Dialog.

Conclusions first you call hide method and after that Dialog.So When call hide method then hide keyboard and and again calling Dialog after call dialog then open.

If you're using AlertDialog then you can do this as below. You can get getWindow() from alertDialog object

alertDialog.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);

Try this 

public static void hideKeyboardFrom(Context context, View view) 
{ 
    InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) context.getSystemService(Activity.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
    imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(view.getWindowToken(), 0); 
}

For kotlin 

fun hideKeyboard(context : Context, view : View) 
{ 
    val imm = context.getSystemService(Activity.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE) as InputMethodManager 
    imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(view.windowToken, 0) 
}
