This may not be a Flex/Apache issue, but just wanted to see if anyone has been successful with text on Air mobile. The issue basically revolves around the native text input. It is rendered on top of the display list, and it does not scroll within its parent scroller. So dropdowns and such that render on top of it do not hide it, and if the user scrolls the text stay in place. There are some more details here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15840504/what-options-are-available-for-handling-text-input-on-android-using-adobe-air https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3302441 Some have suggested using the older spark.mobile.TextInputSkin but with Air 3.8 and iOS7 on iPad , the workaround suggested is not an option. It seems to be even more problematic, as you type it selects what you have typed so you cannot effectively type anything without erasing what was there. A comment from an Adobe person here suggests the issue with the older TextinpustSkin is a Flex SDK issue. https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3292370 Has anyone run into this, if so, been able to handle it gracefully?
