I've been trying to figure out how to create a multiline text box for inputting text by the user.
If I use newTextField and set width and height, I can make a nice big field to input text, but carriage returns don't work and I get borders around my text (which I don't want).
If I use newTextBox (which the docs say is for display only) and set it's isEnterable property to true in order to make it so, I can add multiple lines with carriage returns just fine, but wonder if I'm not supposed to use it for entering text.
In either case, I also can't seem to get the began event phase to fire. It seems that only the ended and submitted phases are working.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 | local onFieldEvent = function ( event ) print (event.phase) if ( "began" == event.phase ) then -- This is the "keyboard has appeared" event -- In some cases you may want to adjust the interface when the keyboard appears. --tattleBox = "" elseif ( "ended" == event.phase ) then -- This event is called when the user stops editing a field: for example, when they touch a different field elseif ( "submitted" == event.phase ) then -- This event occurs when the user presses the "return" key (if available) on the onscreen keyboard -- Hide keyboard native.setKeyboardFocus( nil ) end end |
