Answer 1

Use android:drawableRight="@drawable/cross" attribute of AutoCompleteTextView.

To handle click you can use the code below :

searchMultiAutoCompleteTextView.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
            final int DRAWABLE_LEFT = 0;
            final int DRAWABLE_TOP = 1;
            final int DRAWABLE_RIGHT = 2;
            final int DRAWABLE_BOTTOM = 3;

            if(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
                if(event.getRawX() >= (searchMultiAutoCompleteTextView.getRight() - searchMultiAutoCompleteTextView.getCompoundDrawables()[DRAWABLE_RIGHT].getBounds().width())) {
                    // your action here

                 return true;
                }
            }
            return false;
        }
    });

Hope it will work for you :)
