Hi Steve, thank you very much for the support and quick reply. I Tried your solution and that works, but the cursor is totally invisible and user cannot get the position in the text where he is editing. It would be nice to have fixed (not blinking) cursor at the edit position .... I tried setting the blinking cusor on and off time to a large value and 0 respectively, but the I saw that applies on if native input not used
Why if I disable nativeInput I got odd text in the edit ? Is it another bug ? What about subclass the TextView and override the significant methods to patch ? Any hints about that ?
