native.newTextField problems on Android

Hi guys,

I’m having problems with this.

I had problems on iPhone, which I cleared in the following way:

for each edit field, I created a button, which when pressed, opened a screen with only one text field in it, a title and a button to go back.
This field is in the upper half of the screen, so that the keyboard doesn’t hide it when shown.

This is well for iOS, but for android following behaviour is observed:

  1. when the field becomes active, the keyboard is shown. The keyboard doesn’t hide anything, but still the title and the button DISAPPEAR - I assume they are moved up.
  2. When I go back to the previous screen, sometimes everything is ok, but other times the screen is moved up.
    I close the keyboard with native.setKeyboardFocus( nil )

Please help me! My deadlines are getting close and this is really a big issue!

How can I use native.newTextField properly? This seems very unfinished! [import]uid: 57961 topic_id: 14534 reply_id: 314534[/import]
