problem with inputtext component?

[ch_bowen]

Are there any circumstances where the inputtext component fails to display text when inputtext.setText() is called? We are wrapping the inputtext component to make it look a little better and extend some of its functionality. Our component works fine with 2 of our applications but is not working in another. It seems like something is catching an event that shouldn't be?

I even tried just using inputtext without using our own component and calling inputtext.setText("MyText") and still, nothing appears.

Its extremely frustrating trying to track down this problem and we are confused by it.

Thanks in advance for anyone that can help,

Chris

Is the inputtext definitely visible? Have you tried giving it a background color to make sure that you can see it there?

What are you doing to its dimensions? Are they fixed/constrained, etc.?
