Hello RAP-Community!

I am using RAP 1.3 M3.

Then I want to set a text on a Text-Widget it is not beeing displayed.

My code:

titleField = new Text(parent, SWT.SINGLE);

titleField.setText("TEST");
titleField.insert("TEST");
titleField.append("TEST");

Nothing of the above works. No text is displayed. The textfield is empty. Is that a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Best regards
Eduard

Eduard,

I assume that you are doing something wrong, though I'm not sure what.
Did you try the code with 1.3M5 oder CVS HEAD?
Can you see the text widget at all (setBackground)?
What does getText() return?
If you still belive that you found a bug, please file a bugzilla with
code to reproduce the problem.

Hi Rüdiger!

The textfield is visible (see that

screenshot, its the field with the red background). It is also possible to type text into it.

The returned value is correct. It's the text that I've set with setText(). If I type something in, the returned value is also correct, but it's just not displayed if I use setText().

I'll try it with the newest milestome tomorrow. Maybe that already have been fixed.

Best regards
Eduard

Hi Eduard,

I've just checked it with latest from CVS HEAD and all 3 methods work as
expected in Windows FF 3.6 and IE 8.

Best,
Ivan
