TextField

Class Overview

A TextField is a View that allows the editing of a single line of text.

Cross Platform Considerations

By default, the following properties are applied to a new TextField:

• focusable (limited to some devices)
• clickable
• enabled
• autoCorrect: true
• no text
• width content stretch: MATCH_PARENT.
• height content stretch: MATCH_CONTENT.
• content alignment : LEFT|VCENTER.

If the text is longer than the TextField, it becomes horizontaly scrollable. The size of the TextField does not change.
