Remarks

Return whether or not suggestions are enabled on this TextView. The suggestions are generated by the IME or by the spell checker as the user types. This is done by adding SuggestionSpans to the text.

When suggestions are enabled (default), this list of suggestions will be displayed when the user asks for them on these parts of the text. This value depends on the inputType of this TextView.

The class of the input type must be InputType#TYPE_CLASS_TEXT.

In addition, the type variation must be one of InputType#TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_NORMAL, InputType#TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_EMAIL_SUBJECT, InputType#TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_LONG_MESSAGE, InputType#TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_SHORT_MESSAGE or InputType#TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_WEB_EDIT_TEXT.

And finally, the InputType#TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_NO_SUGGESTIONS flag must not be set.
