Native controls in LiveCode 5.5.1

[jshprentzGA9b3f]

The Android Deployment Release Notes describes how to create some native controls starting on page 50. For example, the Notes state,

To create a native control use:
mobileControlCreate controlType, [ name ]

Is there some way to create a native control by dragging it from the tools palette? Isn't that the point of using LiveCode instead of just coding in Java?

I agree.

I agree.

I agree too, some days later and always trying to have a field I can scroll "à la" Android with no success...

Waiting for that issue, a very very simple and basic and end-user understandable working example would be much appreciated !

When will this actually happen?

obviously this puts my purchase on hold .... i was actually so eager to pull out the credit card and get started.
