enlarge height of multiline inputtext

[epopov]

Hi.
Is it possible to enlarge height of multiline inputtext after user press ENTER key at the last line of it? How to perform it if it is possible?

Kind of. You can change the height, but the text will still want to "scroll" up:


<canvas debug="true">
<inputtext width="140" multiline="true" height="34" bgcolor="yellow">
<method event="onkeydown" args="keycode">
if ( keycode == 13 ) {
this.setHeight( this.height+17 );
}
</method>
</inputtext>
</canvas>


I'll look into whether this is a bug or not.

Hi, this hack works fine for the "return" key.
But if the reason why the text gets longer is a long line that must be displayed under, then the height of the text is not updated...
There were no improvement for this component ??
