iOS Question How to make caret appear when using own coded keyboard

[GEoffT]

Because of the lack of a numeric only keyboard (with a Done key) in B4i, I have coded my own keyboard, this works fine , but I do not have a caret in the textfield which has focus.

Is there a way to make it appear please.

Note that it is not related to B4i. There is no such keyboard in iOS.
You can add a "done" button above the keyboard: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/input-accessory-views.51000/#post-318960

Check this class for a nice numpad: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/customview-numpad.64201/#content (the caret is not visible in this solution).

I did not mean to criticise B4i ... I think it is brilliant. It is iOS that is at fault. I find it really tough after Android.


Thanks for the links

I didn't think that you criticized B4i. There are features that are available in iOS and are not available in B4i. In such cases it is sometimes possible to access them with NativeObject or inline OBJC code. This is not the case here.
