View Full Version : <edittext> auto resizing and scrolling

I need an editable area that can be arbitrarily large and can have horizontal and vertical scrollbars.

<edittext> looks like it would work, except that it does not automatically expand to fit its content. This also prevents the scrollbars from working.

I tried stretches="both" but it did not have any effect, the editext has its default width and height.

Am I on the right track, or should I use a different component for my base?

The <lztextscroller> comments imply that it is an older technology, so I am hesitant to try to use it. I would rather use the more basic components anyway.


Thanks,
Tracy

I am going to have to solve this one pretty soon.

Sorry for the long delay. This isn't possible at the moment - there is a bug in inputtext that prevents it from dynamically resizing.
