how to hide Text selection handle from webview : android

Question

i have a custom webview on which user can select text, i want to hide the "TEXT SELECTION HANDLES" when user click on some button at the bottom , i want the text to be selected but want to hide the handles, as you can see below :

Answer 1

// call hideTextSelection() from your onCreate()
 function hideTextSelection(){    
 //SOLUTION 1->   vibration caused by the long click not works here
   webView.setHapticFeedbackEnabled(false);   

   //Solution 2: 
   /*webView.setOnLongClickListener(new OnLongClickListener() {
     @Override
     public boolean onLongClick(View v) {
       return true;
     }
   });
   webView.setLongClickable(false);*/
}


// whenever you wants to select the data ie. after onClicking the button 'from the bottom of your UI', make it to select as below
yourBottomButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
 @Override
 public boolean onClick(View v) {
  webView.setHapticFeedbackEnabled(true);
 }

});

Answer 2

Try this

mWebView.setOnLongClickListener(new OnLongClickListener() {
@Override
    public boolean onLongClick(View v) {
        return true;
    }
});
mWebView.setLongClickable(false);
