You should set the hint text with the designer:
It will only appear when the text is empty. Note that a better option is to use FloatLabeledEditText: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/floatlabelededittext-iui8.64096/#content

I wrote hint text exactly to the place which you show. But it is not seen on the screen. That is why I am surprised and asked. What can be my fault?

Ok. I will try in another small project. Is it possible to translate HintText? if it is written in designer how it will be? Isn't it possible to write as;
B4X:
TextFieldx.HintText = "Hello"

So, without writing anything in designer, if I write to the application start as I wrote, it should work also I think. Am I right?

I think, I saw the problem. Background colour of textfield is black and the font color of the hinttext is gray. So, I can't see. How can I change HintText color?

lets say you are having problem with txtusername.text
use below code under aapplicatio_start:
B4X:
Dim NoTxtField As NativeObject = txtusername
Dim AttrTxt As AttributedString
AttrTxt.Initialize(txtusername.HintText, txtusername.Font, Colors.white)
NoTxtField.SetField("attributedPlaceholder", AttrTxt )this will set the hint color of txtusername.text to white. ( dont forget to set the hinttext in designer for example: "Kullanıcı Adınız" for the txtusername.text )

Without setting in the designe, can I write the code below? They are not same?
B4X:
TextFieldx.HintText = "Hello"

Ok. I did as you said. When the app starts, it is ok. But when the hint text translated to another language it disappears again. So, do I need to write your codes for each translation place?
