Flashing cursor in label box after the text - like an input box

[thorntonp72l3]

Hi,

I would like to have my own numeric keypad and not the phones numeric pad, but I cannot use an input box as it will always bring up a keypad.

I have tested this and can get it to work, by setting a variable depending on the label I have selected and when I used my own keypad can write text into each one.

The problem I face is trying to get some sort of flashing cursor in the label so the user still knows which box they are in.

I have tried changing the box bg etc (can’t change the border though, as in on/off or shadow on android), but it just does not give the same feel.

I thought maybe some sort of timer could do, and I also tried to put a input box behind the label and populate that, but unless the input box is actually active no cursor shows.

Any ideas on how to do this would be great.

I have also achieved a numeric keypad when only one field is being populated so that function is 100% working, just need the ability for some sort of flashing cursor in the label?

Why? I am trying to achieve the same look and feel throughout the app and across different devices.

Thank you,

Paul

Hi Timothy,

Firstly That puts my keyboard implementation to shame so thank you for that

Secondly, that is amazing and is exactly what I was looking to do, so thank you very much. This will make for a great user experience.

Thank you!!!

Haha. You’re welcome. I created a custom fraction keyboard a month or two ago, so it was fresh in my mind.
