Android Question TextEditor in B4A

First you need to understand, the Default template for B4A is not recommended. If you insist, you will be wasting more time when you encounter issue in the future for the app you are developing. Most developers may already moved to use B4XPages as recommended by the founder, for new project. There is no advantage to go back to the old way of developing B4A apps. Unless you are maintaining an existing app where migrating to B4XPages will cost more. Thus, I can only say that continue with the B4XPages framework is the way to go.

For new apps, use B4XPages to develop your apps.

For new applications - understandable.
What to do with the old one?

If it is feasible, sure I will migrate to B4XPages.

For example, I am working on a freelance to maintain a B4A project. It was developed at the time before I even started to use B4A. It has hundred of layouts and activities. If I am going to migrate them, it would take a lot of time and I cannot claim for the job. I only can charge for the bug fixes which usually takes maximum 1 week. However, the old code has caused a lot of problems. I have tried my best to use msgboxasync and wait for but all these really take a lot of time. What I can only do is migrate little bit by bit when there is a module that need fixes. It is a risk to migrate a big project and I already clean up the legacy code a lot from 20MB APK to current 8MB. I really wish it was written in B4XPages.
