This is one issue I had always thought about but had no solution. When you design a form for user input, you have to place EditTexts and Labels near each EditText (explaining what each EditText is for, like First Name, Last Name etc...). Or you could get rid of all Labels (save some space) and use Hint text in EditText boxes.

The problem here is, once you fill the EditText, the hint text vanishes, resulting in loss of all the context of what we’re entering. Like this.

The solution is to use FloatingHintEditText

I think it will be a great addition to B4A for anyone who dealing with user input forms. Please take a look.
