RIght, copy/paste aren't supported on mobile for LiveCode fields (see the release notes.) Use a native field and it works.

Hi Ralph,

in the RunRev store for only 2 british pounds per field! Just kidding :-D

You need to create native controls "on the fly", go to menu "Help" and select "Android Release Notes"
and check the chapter about "Native controls" in the PDF!
In the current release notes it starts at page 56 -> "Input control".


Best

If you call in the next ten minutes, we will sell you TWO native fields for 2 british pounds. But wait, there's more! We'll throw in a FREE native web browser at no extra charge. Act fast, this offer won't last!
