native.newTextBox() doesn't work

Solar2D Daily Builds and Public Releases

I tried in beta7 (I don’t know if this works on older builds) to create a textBox with the following syntax :

choix\_single2 = native.newTextBox( 20, 120, 280, 30 )

Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear on the xcode simulator and on the device

Am I the worst noob on Earth or is this really a bug ? :slight_smile:

Thanks to the community !

I’m able to use the native.newTextBox object in the Xcode simulator (version 3.2.3). Have you tried removing the app from the iPhone Simulator and running the code? Does it still fail?

There does seem to be a problem with Corona builds for the Xcode (iPhone) simulator where the second time you run the program it either crashes the simulator or continues where it stopped (instead of starting from the beginning). We are trying to track down the problem.
