Android Question [Solved] Remove underline in edit text

[pacoMx]

Hi, I want to remove "underline" element in editText. How can I do it?

I'm trying to get a border around the text input, what I did is to have a panel and inside that panel the edit text. Now, my problem is that I can't find how to remove the default line that goes under edit text.

I want something something simialr to the "Name" input field.

Use something like this:

Dim EditText As B4xview
EditText.SetBorderandColor(.......) 'Use this to style the Edit text box

I have SetColorAndBorder rather than SetBorderAndColor in version 12.80:

    Dim mEditText As EditText
    mEditText.Initialize("mEditText")
    mEditText.As(B4XView).SetColorAndBorder(HColors.lightBlue, 3dip, HColors.Blue, 10dip)
    mEditText.TextColor = HColors.Black
    mEditText.TextSize = 20
    myPanel.AddView(mEditText, 10%x, 15%y, 30%x, 50dip)

this thread is also quite helpful: Change EditText Colors

Using that method mentioned in that link, you can get access to edit text placeholder color. Then you can change its alpha to 0. Therefore, it gets invisible.

Dim a As XUI
a.Color_ARGB(0,0,0,0)
