Hi everyone, i trying to achieve something like this:

I need the cross in a edittext, i'm working on the AutocompletePlaces class of Erel:

I modified the interefece to look like this:

The problem is that the text goes under the cross when it too long:

How can i solve this?
Thanks

Simply add a button with an X after edittext and get the same result

No, because the lblX (with the MaterialIcon) is IN the edittext

The best thing i would like to do is to add an ellispize to the edittext in order to prevent the text to go under the cross

I think the B4XFloatTextField will do this.
