you can use popupwindow class , populate custom layout.

view custom = layoutinflater.from(context)     .inflate(r.layout.your_layout, new framelayout(context)); popupwindow popup = new popupwindow(context); popup.setcontentview(custom); 

and on long press

//get x,y based on touch position //get width, height based on layout if(popup.isshowing()){     popup.update(x, y, width, height); } else {     popup.setwidth(width);     popup.setheight(height);     popup.showatlocation(yourkeyboardview, gravity.no_gravity, x, y); } 

on click in popup can dismiss it

popup.dismiss();
