Textbox selecting, copying and pasting

Post by Pistris » Mon Aug 17, 2015 8:01 pm

When clicking a textbox i automatically get the keyboard
i would like to get the select, copy, paste menu if i hold my finger in the textbox

is this something you have to code or is there any way to set this without coding

thanks guys

You have to use "iOS native controls" and not Livecode controls, so ... use "mobileControlCreate" to create a "multiline" control and you will have the "select, copy, paste" menu ;)

As you can see in the Livecode "dictionary", under "mobileControlCreate" ... it's the whole list ;)
