Re: iOS input field
Figured it out. I was using iPhoneDeviceResolution true and it worked in previous builds. But now that there's a second parameter which deals with pixel density, I need to make sure and pass it: iPhoneDeviceResolution true,true Chipp Walters SVP, General Manager, IdeaWorks 512.577.9258 cell ch...@agilixideaworks.com skype: chippwalters http://youtu.be/PZuK5_u2eyI On Thu, Apr 18, 2013 at 9:26 PM, Chipp Walters ch...@agilixideaworks.comwrote: Hey guys.

RE: iOS input field
On Android it is on top. On iOS it is on the bottom(another x-platform got-yah Tom, add to your list). I set the appropriate field control colors when I'm not in development mode to hide the LC field control(thanks to Jacque for the dev function) except for the border in my case. Don't need to do it for Android but I wanted one code base so I do it for both Android and iOS. I also put the native input control's data into the LC field object and use the field control for examining/processing the inputted data. This makes testing in development easy. Like you I make the native control name the same as the LC field control. This makes handlers in either a library or a behavior generic.

Re: iOS input field
Yes and thanks. The challenge is making all this work for all platforms and screensizes with one codebase WHILE taking advantage of Retina. So far, my mobile resizer library is performing well for this. Chipp Walters On Thu, Apr 18, 2013 at 9:50 PM, Ralph DiMola rdim...@evergreeninfo.netwrote: On Android it is on top.

RE: iOS input field
Chipp, My mobile resizer library is also hanging tough. Can't wait to see what Monte has done though. Heads upOn iOS I found that strange things can happen in 5.5.3 when you are in the inputReturnKey handler. Mobilepick stops working(It's there but not visible) and you can have more than one answer box displayed at the same time. Have not verified this in 6.0 yet. Things don't seem to settle down until this message makes it to the engine.
