B4A Library [B4X] [XUI] [B4XLib] SD TextView

I needed to develop a modern editText (or TextField), but different from the B4XFloatTextField, different in terms of graphics and style. So I created the SD_TextView
(see also xComboBox)

NOTE: You can use this library for personal and commercial use. Include it in your projects.. Attention, even if it is a B4XLib library, it is not allowed to decompress it, modify it, change its name or redistribute it without the permission of the author

tested, no RTL found! How can I set?

In the Design you find the RTL property

In the Design you find the RTL property

found & worked.
Some improvement please > in RTL mode, right padding is zero & 1st letter fused with right border! You should increase right padding.

wish:

Already this you can do as in native view:

MaxLength

Private Sub SD_IconTextView1_TextChanged (OldText As String, Newtext As String)
    If Newtext.Length>MaxLength Then
        SD_IconTextView1.Text=OldText
    End If
End Sub

B4A InputType

SD_IconTextView1.NativeObject.InputType=SD_IconTextView1.NativeObject.INPUT_TYPE_DECIMAL_NUMBERS

B4i InputType

SD_IconTextView1.NativeObject.KeyboardType=SD_IconTextView1.NativeObject.TYPE_NUMBER_PAD

I want add with designer but have error :

It's strange. Have you updated with the latest version?
You have to copy the xml file and the jar file to the libraries folder (or additional libraries)

 

[aletayyeb]

Thank's for reply
I have lastest version(0.05)
but that's B4Xlib Type and I put on the additional library and cant find jar and xml files
and my b4a version is 10

you're right, my mistake, just the b4xlib file in the library folder is enough.

Make sure you don't have an older version in the Additional Libraries folder

I recommend that you delete the b4xlib file and download it again.

 

[aletayyeb]

I do that...but having error yet...
some library show this error but I don't know what I do that
What I should do?

 

[Star-Dust]

If you experience this problem on other libraries, check if one library is conflicting with the others.

But a good thing is to get technical support.

Update 0.06
Fix bug

 

[behnam_tr]

thanks
Star-Dust

can you add input type like numbers,string,.....
and formatted text like date,currency,......

 

[Star-Dust]

you can set other filters using the NativeObject property and assigning it to EditText (For Android) or TextField (B4i or B4j)

B4A sample

Dim EditText1 As EditText = TextView.NativeObject
EditText1.InputType = EditText1.INPUT_TYPE_PHONE
