15.1.4 + placeholders + IWEdit + async update - MJS@mjs.us - 09-03-2019 Added placeholders and they mostly work, but if I touch an IWEdit control through an async call such as enabling, disabling, or setting the text the placeholder then disappears.  If I update the control via a synchronous call the placeholder reappears and works until another async call updates the control.  This occurs with or without templates. RE: 15.1.4 + placeholders + IWEdit + async update - Alexandre Machado - 09-05-2019 I can't reproduce this behavior. What are the properties that you are changing? I'm changing font, color, border, and several things and if I clear the text the placeholder is there. The attribute doesn't change in an async call.... RE: 15.1.4 + placeholders + IWEdit + async update - MJS@mjs.us - 09-05-2019 I'm able to reproduce with a simple new IW project with an IWEdit (placeholder set in ExtraTagParams) and a button which toggles the 'Enabled' property via async: Pic 1: on startup, placeholder visible. Pic 2: toggle enabled, placeholder disappears. Pic 3: toggle enabled, placeholder still not active. Pic 4: full page refresh, placeholder appears and works normally. Using C++ builder 10.2.3 + IW 15.1.4 RE: 15.1.4 + placeholders + IWEdit + async update - MJS@mjs.us - 09-05-2019 Took a quick look at the IW source - the IWEdit 'Hint' property controls the placeholder if 'Attributes->iaPLaceholder' is true.  So all works if set iaPLaceholder = true and 'Hint' = desired placeholder. RE: 15.1.4 + placeholders + IWEdit + async update - Alexandre Machado - 09-09-2019 Yes, the hint controls the placeholder attribute.
