Hi ppl

I am new to AKG2 but I did search the forum for my problem before making this post, I have seen a good few editbox problems but so far I haven't seen this one posted yet.

btw this all works on from the ide on a pc this only happens on bluestacks and my galaxy S4

I have tried to sort it out myself but have to admit defeat it may be something simple in which case I will have lived up to my screen name :/

problem starts when I click on the the 3rd editbox everything works fine until then, when the 3rd editbox is clicked on the screen goes goes darker and seems to lock and a larger image of the editbox appears in the middle of the screen, on Bluestacks nothing can be done until the back key is clicked.

on my phone I get the same dark screen lock but I can still enter chars into the edit.

a screen shot is attached and the 2 code folders zipped in the dropbox link below.

Example 1



I have commented out most of the code but it doesn't help.

I tried a different method

Example 2



with the same result it's like my code is infected if I start fresh I dont have the problem but I dont want to have to rewrite all my code from scratch again if this is something silly simple.

thank you taking the time to read this.

Welcome

I haven't looked at your problem in detail, but I think there is some automatic functionality that kicks in if the edit box would be overlaid by the keyboard. This looks possible in your case. I always put my edit boxes in the top half of the screen, so I haven't experienced this problem myself.

Thank you for looking and the welcome

I have read some posts about the keyboard being a problem but most just say that the box was hidden under the keyboard so I never gave that a thought, I will test it now with my fingers cross.

Oops....the reason I didn't realised this was because I never had the blue stacks on screen keyboard enabled as soon as I found it in the settings and enabled it it was so obvious all I was seeing was a locked shaded out screen...omg! this had me going for a whole week ripping my code apart lol well at least I got it a bit more streamlined.

I am soooo.... looking forward to the more complicated stuff

Thnx
