Android Text Fields

yudi — Thu, 08 Jan 2015 06:05:52 GMT

I created a simple Crosslight project based on the provided Layout and BindingProvider; then deploy the app to Nexus 4 (running Android 4.4.4).

The reported problem is reproducible in my local end. I noticed that the difficulties to select the edit text happen when there are two cursor appearing at the same time.

I have forwarded this problem to Crosslight development team. It is filed under CROS-687. I will keep you updated with any news I heard from the team regarding CROS-687.

Edited on February 5, 2015 2:30 AM
Reason: provide link to nightly build of Crosslight 3

I'd like to inform you that nightly build of Crosslight which resolves CROS-687 is now available in here. Please have the nightly build evaluated on your end and let me know if the problem still persist.

I'm using the latest Crosslight 3 on Nexus 6 and Android Emulators running 4.4. I'm 99% it has to do with my bindings and the NextInputFocus.

I tried to reproduce the reported problem in my end by installing app of Crosslight MvvmSamples project on Android device (Nexus 4 running on Android version 4.4.4) but my efforts were not successful -- everything worked smoothly and the Text Fields was accessed without any issues.

I am willing to asisst you further but in order to do so I would need you to elaborate on your specific scenario and possibly give me a step-by-step guide (or simple sample) that I can use to observe the problematic behavior.

Following information should helps to identify what may cause the problem.

Crosslight version (for example: Crosslight 3 Update 1)
the problem persist on device/emulator?
device information (for example: Nexus 5 running Android 5.0)

I'm having multiple problems with Android Text Fields. Sometimes they can't be selected, then I clean the build and re-run and it works. Other times I can put data to them but if I open up the Camera Media Select option and come back it again prevents me from selecting them.
