B4A Library [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 almost anything, it looks nice by default and is functional.

I spend a lot of time in creating views, like this and to create a high quality view cost a lot of time. If you want to support me and further views, then you can do it here by Paypal or with a coffee. :)

In B4J the view does not work properly yet, I am working on fixing the bugs. B4J works now

The usage of NativeTextField and NativeTextFieldMultiline is resulting in an error.

B4X:
Dim su          As StringUtils
Dim MaximumSize As Int = su.MeasureMultilineTextHeight(AS_TextFieldAdvanced_1.NativeTextFieldMultiline, "Text Size") * 8

log:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Object should first be initialized (B4XView).

Special thanks to @Lucas Siqueira for his code in #67 for the mask feature.

RequiredFields
Call the function "ShowDisplayMissingField" to show the user he has to fill something. Call the "HideDisplayMissingField" function to remove it

Can the mask property be enabled via code?
such as :

Sample Code:
Private Sub AS_TextFieldAdvanced_TextChanged(Text As String)
    If Text. Length = 4 Then
        AS_TextFieldAdvanced. mask = "X.XXX"
    Else If Text. Length = 7 then
        AS_TextFieldAdvanced.mask = "X.XXX.XXX"
    End If
End Sub

Two other suggestions for improvements:

1) icon color (xlbl_ClearButton, xlbl_RevealButton) if the background is light and if the background is dark.
(using the code Alexandre Stolte: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-check-if-color-is-dark-or-light.110463/)

1.1) add code below isColorDark;
1.2) modify DesignerCreateView;
B4X:
...
xlbl_ClearButton.TextColor = IIf(isColorDark(m_BackgroundColor),xui.Color_ARGB(152,255,255,255),xui.Color_ARGB(152,0,0,0))
...
xlbl_RevealButton.TextColor = xlbl_ClearButton.TextColor
...

B4X:
Private Sub isColorDark(color As Int) As Boolean
    Dim res(4) As Int
    res(0) = Bit.UnsignedShiftRight(Bit.And(color, 0xff000000), 24)
    res(1) = Bit.UnsignedShiftRight(Bit.And(color, 0xff0000), 16)
    res(2) = Bit.UnsignedShiftRight(Bit.And(color, 0xff00), 8)
    res(3) = Bit.And(color, 0xff)
    
    Dim darkness As Int = 1 - (0.299 * res(1) + 0.587 * res(2) + 0.114 * res(3))/255
    
    If darkness <= 0.5 Then
        Return False 'It's a light color
    Else
        Return True 'It's a dark color
    End If
End Sub



2) add FocusedTitleTextColor and NonFocusedTitleTextColor as it is fixed to white color.
2.1) add properties in designer FocusedTitleTextColor and NonFocusedTitleTextColor;
2.2) modify the IniProps sub for g_Title to receive the FocusedTitleTextColor and NonFocusedTitleTextColor parameters;
2.3) modify the sub CreateASTextFieldAdvanced_Title to receive the new parameters FocusedTitleTextColor and NonFocusedTitleTextColor;
2.4) modify the Style sub to validate m_HasFocus = true, to define the title color using the new parameters FocusedTitleTextColor and NonFocusedTitleTextColor;


B4X:
...
#DesignerProperty: Key: FocusedTitleTextColor, DisplayName: Focused Title Text Color, FieldType: Color, DefaultValue: 0xFFFFFFFF, Description: You can use the built-in color picker to find the color values.
#DesignerProperty: Key: NonFocusedTitleTextColor, DisplayName: Non Focused Title Text Color, FieldType: Color, DefaultValue: 0x64FFFFFF, Description: You can use the built-in color picker to find the color values.
...

Private Sub IniProps(Props As Map)
...
g_Title = CreateASTextFieldAdvanced_Title(Props.Get("Title"),Props.Get("TitleText"),DipToCurrent(Props.Get("TitleHeight")),False,xui.CreateDefaultBoldFont(15),xui.PaintOrColorToColor(Props.Get("FocusedTitleTextColor")),xui.PaintOrColorToColor(Props.Get("NonFocusedTitleTextColor")),CreateASTextFieldAdvanced_ViewTitle(xlbl_Title))
...
End Sub
...


Private Sub Style
    '****************View Properties*******************************
    'Title Options
    If g_Title.IgnoreProperties = False Then
        xlbl_Title.Text = g_Title.Text
        If m_HasFocus Then
            xlbl_Title.TextColor = g_Title.FocusedTextColor
            Log(g_Title.FocusedTextColor)
        Else
            xlbl_Title.TextColor = g_Title.NonFocusedTextColor
            Log(g_Title.NonFocusedTextColor)
        End If
        xlbl_Title.Font = g_Title.xFont
        xlbl_Title.SetTextAlignment("CENTER","LEFT")
        
        xlbl_TitleReqiredField.Text = "*"
        xlbl_TitleReqiredField.Textcolor = m_RequiredFieldColor
        xlbl_TitleReqiredField.Font = g_Title.xFont
        xlbl_TitleReqiredField.SetTextAlignment("CENTER","LEFT")
        
    End If
...
End Sub


...
Public Sub CreateASTextFieldAdvanced_Title (Visible As Boolean, Text As String, Height As Float, IgnoreProperties As Boolean, xFont As B4XFont, FocusedTextColor As Int, NonFocusedTextColor As Int, View As ASTextFieldAdvanced_ViewTitle) As ASTextFieldAdvanced_Title e tambem modifique o type ASTextFieldAdvanced_Title
    Dim t1 As ASTextFieldAdvanced_Title
    t1.Initialize
    t1.Visible = Visible
    t1.Text = Text
    t1.Height = Height
    t1.IgnoreProperties = IgnoreProperties
    t1.xFont = xFont
    t1.FocusedTextColor = FocusedTextColor
    t1.NonFocusedTextColor = NonFocusedTextColor
    t1.View = View
    Return t1
End Sub

How to set the hint programatically ! Setting it with AS_TextFieldAdvanced_4.Hint.View.xlbl_Hint.Text = is distorting the view.
Never Mind had to call :

AS_TextFieldAdvanced_4.Refresh

Got a request.

now u have to use designer to set keyboard type. can u make the option to use code to change it.

and found something strange.

When u use corner radius(base background) and u forget to change TextfieldCornerradius then i get this

issue.png


maybe remove TextfieldCornerradius and background color(custom properties) and let Base Background handle the colors/radius

hey @Alexander Stolte could you add option to cahange the reveal label color ? In the official lib ?
But then the change would be invalid to automatically adjust the text color when using a light design. in #71
When u use corner radius(base background) and u forget to change TextfieldCornerradius then i get this
Please use the provided function to change the corner radius.
B4X:
AS_TextFieldAdvanced_1.TextFieldCornerRadius = 10dip
maybe remove TextfieldCornerradius and background color(custom properties) and let Base Background handle the colors/radius
Why should I do that? There are properties provided for this purpose that you should use.

They both do the same thing. thats why i suggested it :)

Do you have an example of using CreateASTextFieldAdvanced_Hint?

Thanks

CreateASTextFieldAdvanced_Hint is an intern function. If you want o change hint properties, then do this:
B4X:
AS_TextFieldAdvanced_1.Hint.Text = "Test"
AS_TextFieldAdvanced_1.Refresh
Thanks!
If it is an intern function, should it be kept as "Private" so it does not appears in the intellisense?

I'm trying to make the textfield look something like this:
1689113469336.png


Not sure how I can do that? I've been messing with the designer settings and I just can't get it to look anything like that.

I set the border, which is good.
But when I set the background color to white, it just becomes invisible.
I dont think there is a "Non Focused Shape Color" or a border color
