Is there a work around or easy way to disable the duplicate fields that are riddled throughout our app? We tried disabling this feature in unity, but it’s not working. Love unity, but this is one of the worst features I have seen. LOL I have never seen any program use this feature? Please give me something, anything. ha ha a snippet a plugin anything!!??
AS per the screen shot I want the user to input a comment in the text field. Sounds simple enough huh. Then unity has this ridiculous text field that pops up and you end up have text duplicated as your typing. Every field is this way by default in unity and for the love of goodness I have no idea why? It is a feature that no UI should have…ever! LOL Can some one help us out? so new to unity it might be something obvious were missing.
I’d try several things and see how they work out. A few things I’d experiment with:
You could try disabling the referenced Text component until the user is done editing the field, then re-enable.
You could change the Text component’s Color alpha value to 0 until the user is done editing the field (making the text simply see through while editing), then turn back up the alpha. You could try something similar with text color matching the background color as well.
If for IOS, you could try clicking the Hide Mobile Input check box on the InputField component.
But if you read that thread you can find some well-good-enough solution.
I’m not a mobile developer, this thread is the result of my google-fu (your developer should have too).
