I have a newTextField in my project with Corona SDK, I would like to know if there is a possibility in the normal Corona to click on the textfield and a pickerWheel appears instead of the original keyboard.
It will take a little work, but it can be done. You would detect an event on the text field that it’s being edited, dismiss the keyboard, show a widget.newPickerView widget where the keyboard was. Then when you get the done event on the pickerwheel, take the selected answer and set the .text property of the native.newTextfield().

Thanks Rob, I searched the internet and had not said anything about this, and I decided to take the doubt out because a friend of mine informed me that this could only be done with Corona Native. 
If you want to show a native picker wheel, that will require Corona Native.
Our widget.newPickerWheel exists in the same OpenGL space as our other display objects. Our native.newTextFields() are native objects but we don’t have a native pickerWheel type of input. So you have to do a little visual trickery to make it work, but it should work.
