B4J Question AS_TextFieldAdvanced - readonly not working?

[wimpie3]

Is it possible there is an issue with AS_TextFieldAdvanced when the read only checkbox is checked in the designer? The field is still editable when using B4J even in read-only mode...

Works for me. Please always attach an example project that shows the behaivior...

Here you go. In B4J the edit field stays editable, even with readonly checked.

That's why an example project is so important, so I could now see that it is a bug only in b4j and only in the multiline textfield.

is fixed in V1.43

[B4X] [XUI] AS TextFieldAdvanced - Title, Information, Counter, Password, Button, Prefix, Suffix, Icons, Multiline

With this view you can quickly and easily add good looking text fields, with title and or bottom text. Additionally you can make the TextField a button, so that you can open menus, but still keep the design of the text fields. The view speeds up development because you don't have to worry about...

OK, I've been shouting too early @Alexander Stolte ;-)

The textfield is still editable when opened in a dialog box :-( See example.

is something i can't influence, probably the text field is set to enabled internally as soon as the panel becomes visible. Because if I set the readonly after the ShowCustom, then it works.

    Dim pnl As B4XView = xui.CreatePanel("")
    pnl.SetLayoutAnimated(0,0, 0, 300dip, 70dip)
    pnl.LoadLayout("Dialog_Label")
    AS_TextFieldAdvanced1.Text="This is selectable text"
    dia.Initialize(Root)
    Dim rs As ResumableSub = dia.ShowCustom(pnl,"yes","no","cancel")
    AS_TextFieldAdvanced1.ReadOnly = True
    Wait For (rs) Complete (result As Int)

Yes that seems to work, but now I've noticed the text color of the disabled field becomes lighter? Might be a default setting in Java or something like that?

I don't know, I looked in the code and I don't set a different text color when readonly.
