LucaMs Expert Licensed User Longtime User Dec 18, 2025 #1 Setting the B4XFloatTextField's HintText at runtime has no effect; you need to force the redraw of this custom view by calling the Update method. I struggled to find this information; it would be helpful to add this as a comment to the HintText property. It would also be better if HintText were a real property (I assume it's just a global variable; I haven't looked at the source code) and that Update is called directly from within it.
