Description

Hello,
I'm using the places plugin of that library.
I'm using it in a dilaog: https://docs.mapbox.com/android/plugins/overview/places/#display-as-a-fragment

Now I have 2 problems:

1- I want to know how could I set focus dynamically to the search EditText there ?
2- How could I change the hint text of the search editText ?

On image below, The search input has not focus while the keyboard is shown:

Thanks too much.
