When an EditText is set to Password it blocks the text in the EditText just fine however the "Word Picker" is still on the screen and offering up words that match what you are typing!
Doesn't work, but I have to say I don't trust what is going on. I am opening an activity. It has 1 Edittext. When it opens I need to open the keyboard, and have it push the control up so it displays above the Keyboard. This is the only way I could get that to happen:
B4X:
Sub Activity_Resume
T.Initialize("T", 200)
T.Enabled = True
' Sleep(100)
' CallSubDelayed(Me, "OpenKeyBoard")
End
Sub T_Tick
T.Enabled = False
ValueTxt.InputType = Bit.Or(ValueTxt.InputType, 524288)
ValueTxt.RequestFocus
'ValueTxt.InputType = Bit.Or(ValueTxt.InputType, 524288)
Sleep(100)
IME.ShowKeyboard(ValueTxt)
End Sub
