Write inner Textfield

Hi, I'm trying Kuix in a J9 MIDP VM and i have a problem with textfield, when a try to insert text, appear a white form to insert text, after return to form where textfiel is it. Can I write into textfield in the same form?

 

Thanks

Like a MIDP Textfield.

No, it isn't possible with Kuix.

The choice to open an edit form is guided by the fact that it isn't possible to know on which key is mapped which letter or symbol. It deffers from a device to on other.

The edit form is implemented by the device manufacturer, in this case all letters are correctly mapped.

Thank you, very much.

I have the same problem as naruton, but I have checked that using a native MIDP2 form the TextField is edited in place without problems. Is there any way to emulate this behaviour? or, is there anyway to include a MIDP2 TextField in a KuixMidlet or Frame to get the best of Kuix and the best of native MIDP2?

 

Thanks and regards.

No, you couldn't mix MIDP component and Kuix widgets, because MIDP components couldn't be rendered on a Canvas.

So then, there is no way to get an in-place editing TextField? This is a bit annoying as when the white edit box appears (in windows mobile) if user clicks on the upper X, it closes/minimize the application and you should go to Memory setting in order to bring it to foreground again (annoying isn't it). As every user is going to click on the X instintively trying to cancel the editing the TextBox, could you think in any way to solve this?

 

Regards.

We understand the problem of the white box ... but the problem of inner editing is not always compatible withe the Kuix philisophy of code once and run everywhere, because of the key letter mapping which could be different from a device to an other.
