How to add multiline textinput to an iPad App?

Hello,

I am currently developing an iPad App. What I need is a multiline textinput field which displays the default keyboard when the user clicks inside the textfield.
Am I right that this can’t be done using the native.newTextBox?

Did anyone find a workaround for the described problem yet?

Best,

native.newTextBox is only for displaying text. native.newTextField is the only way to enter text and it doesn’t accept multiple lines.
