Android Question cannot access AppCompatTextView

[tripleA57]

Hello buddies. I got this error while compiling:
B4A line: 63 Panel1.AddView(intro, 20dip, 45%y, 90%x, 30%y) src\farmandehan\ilam\abasi.java:465: error: cannot access AppCompatTextView mostCurrent._panel1.AddView((android.view.View)(mostCurrent._intro.getObject()),anywheresoftware.b4a.keywords.Common.DipToCurrent((int) (20)),anywheresoftware.b4a.keywords.Common.PerYToCurrent((float) (45),mostCurrent.activityBA),anywheresoftware.b4a.keywords.Common.PerXToCurrent((float) (90),mostCurrent.activityBA),anywheresoftware.b4a.keywords.Common.PerYToCurrent((float) (30),mostCurrent.activityBA)); ^ class file for android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatTextView not found

Using B4A last update. AppCompat 4.
Tried redownloading appcompat, installing recommended sdks via SDKManager, but the error still occurs or just points to another line of the same code.

There is really no good reason to use AppCompatTextView or any of the other compat controls. They were relevant when Android 5 was introduced.

Thank you Erel. Sorry, I'm new with b4Aa, what library I should use instead?

Use the regular EditText. Or B4XFloatTextField from XUI Views.
