Text Inputs? about slick-ui HOT 8 CLOSED

Good point. I've been thinking about introducing text inputs before. For mobile users, we'd probably have to use an in-canvas virtual keyboard, though, because the native keyboard can't be triggered without the use of HTML. And this of course gives us limitations in the game's minimum width :) But maybe that isn't that big of a problem.

I'll look into it anyway. If you have any suggestions let me know or try setting something up.

Yeah, unfortunately the only way I know of to open the soft keyboard involves invisible HTML inputs, which would probably not be the best idea.

Even if it's a PC-only feature, I can still see if being quite useful. I'm not too sure how difficult it would be to create your own soft keyboard for mobile devices. Thanks for the quick reply! :)

Thanks.

Currently working out a text input solution for mobile and desktop users. File input fields will not be supported, because that does not belong in game UI in my opinion.

True, the main focus of Phaser is gaming, although sometime Phaser could be used to develop applications.

What about < select > ?

thanks

This plugin will only facilitate game development UI :)
Please create a new issue addressing dropdown elements and we'll discuss it there.

The requested feature has been added - text input fields.
Went for a virtual keyboard approach. It might still contain some bugs so use with caution. Also, I will abstract components into several different 'things' in the future (trying to maintain backward compatibility) to allow for more visual independence.
