Text wrap in native ios text field

How do I get a native iOS text field to wrap text on data entry?
All I can make happen is one line of text entry that scrolls to the left as you input more text, (even if I increase the height of the text field).

Hi...

The input control allows the editing of a single line of text, with the 'return' key ending editing and
allowing the application to perform an appropriate action. - Page 50 iOS release notes

be well

Thanks Dixie, but I was referring the the native iOS text control, not the input control.

Incidentally, the input control is, as you say, a single line, but you have to tap OK on the screen.

Cheers

Steve

Hi Steve,

there is no native iOS multi-line text control in LiveCode (yet)!


Best

LiveCode devs waiting for multi-line text... it's just as long and silly as iOS users waiting for cut-and-paste.
Maybe soon.
