Android Question [SD_IconTextView] [SOLVED] How to?

Just started using the SD_IconTextView, awesome library, thanks @Star-Dust . A few questions.

1. I have set enter press event and also "Single Line", however when I press Enter, it first moves to the next line of the textfield before it execute the request focus of the other text field I have coded. I have set wrap = false and single line = true on the native object. How can I solve this?
2. The overall background color of the textfield is "white". I need this to blend with the layout background which is light greyish, how do I achieve this?


Thanks.

Hello,

I can't understand why you don't switch focus, as SIngleLine sets it to native view.
The background color follows that of the background property.

Give an example of the problem and post it so I can review it.

Hi

Thanks, now for the background...

As a temporal fix, I set the activity Drawable.Color property to #FFFFFFFF, just like the text box. However, if you set the activity color to Default or any that is not #FFFFFFFF, the last text box has protruding edges. As an example, see the attached project. I changed the textbox Background Color to be another color for example.

Id like to know how to get rid of the edges in the last text box as the rest look perfect.

Thanks

The tip above works if you use the FRAME shape, but if you use the BEAD shape, this is what you need to change

This will be the result

 

[Star-Dust]

The Next Focus also works correctly for me.
You probably won't see the change if you don't highlight the text.
I am attaching your correct example

Wow!! Perfect, thanks a lot. I love that it can have different colors. So much emphasis. Great work SD.

I can only "elevate" this once I put it inside a panel?

Sorry I don't think I understand

 

[Mashiane]

Sorry I don't think I understand

Just like... to make it "come out'..

 

[Star-Dust]

Do you mean this?

Dim PanelBase As Panel=SD_IconTextView1.GetBase
PanelBase.Elevation=10dip

More like it but on my side I dont see it doing any difference. If you are lucky please send me word.

Thanks

On your SD_TextView thread, you have some nice looking buttons on the posted image, can you please point me to the Library + Demo for such? Thanks.

Unfortunately I cannot understand what you want to achieve.

Thanks, me thought it was buttons. Wow. great stuff. Do you by any chance have buttons like that?

 

[Star-Dust]

You can use it as a button without any problems.
I updated you the example from the post#13.

Hi

Is it possible to fire an event when a hint is touched/ selected. For example, If I have an icon of a user on the text field, to profile helper text, one could select the hint icon and then I show a toast message.

Thanks

 

[Mashiane]

Also, my hint icons look small and Id like to increase their size, is that possible?

Thanks

 

[Star-Dust]

Download version 0.12. I added the HintClick event.

You can edit with HintFont

SD_IconTextView1.HintFont=xui.CreateDefaultFont(size)
