Rich, I agree. I think the syntax is there, mobileControlDo <control> "focus"
it just doesn't do anything on Android, but it works fine on iOS. Found the following in LiveCode QualityCenter. 11468 Reported Nov-2103 Reported by Monte 11180 Reported Sept-2013 Marked as duplicate of 11468 18520 Reported Sept-2016 Marked as duplicate of 11468 Looks like this issue is well known, just nothing has been done with it. Creates a real problem providing a quaility user experience. Is there any way to mark it so it gets looked at?

Regardless how the field is created, it seems we have no means of explicitly giving focus to a mobile-native field programmatically. If that's correct it would seem adding that would be a reasonable priority. If that's incorrect I'd welcome learning what the syntax is. A good deal of good UX depends on this sort of graceful guidance for the user, which we can find in many competing apps. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web ____________________________________________________________________ ambassa...@fourthworld.com http://www.FourthWorld.com _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
