More Issues With TextInput on Flex 4.16 AIR 25
Hi folks,
I'd normally go to StackOverflow but I usually find that Flex issues posted
are normally met with tumbleweed...
I have included an mxml view file if anybody wants to replicate. I tried to
include the entire project but the zipped file was too large.
*Issue :* Text not visible on TextInput until user focuses on another
component.
*Steps to replicate :*
*( using Flex 4.16 AIR 25 running on an iOS device , not an emulator )*
Create a TextInput ( use the default skin )
Navigate to another view
Pop back to original view
Click on TextInput
Type value ( no text appears , caret also not visible )
Click off TextInput ( text appears )
I am using 'DestructionPolicy = never' as I need the user to be able to go
to a new form on the fly and then pop back to the main form without losing
the data or the scroll position.
I've noticed on iOS 10.0+ , an undo/redo popup appears after pressing
back...
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Thanks Josh,
Yesterdays AIR update seems to have resolved the issue.

It's been my experience that flash.text.StageText has multiple issues with
AIR 25.0.0.134. I believe that the Flex TextInput uses StageText on mobile,
so you may be running into these bugs.
It looks like there's a new AIR 25 beta on Adobe Labs today, so I think
they're planning to release an update to AIR 25 soon. I see in the release
notes that some StageText issues have been fixed. You might try using that
build instead of the released version.
Since a stable build of AIR 25 has been released, you may not see a beta
build in the Flex SDK Installer anymore. You can overlay the beta AIR SDK
over the Flex SDK manually using these instructions:
