Hi everyone, i tried out the chat layout example from @Erel .
I wanted to change the apperance of the B4XFloatTextField contained in the 1.bil layout file.

I changed it's properties to look like this:


But when i run the app it shows like so:

a white rectangle.

How can i set all the proprieties to look like i want (first pic)? i don't understand why the designer proprieties are ignored.

Thanks in advance.

B4XFloatTextField is a custom view. Custom views always show several common properties. Not all properties are actually used.

In the case of B4XFloatTextField the base colors are ignored. It should be possible to change them with B4XFloatTextField.mBase.SetColorAndBorder.
