Clearing TextEntryButton

Is it possible to clear the TextEntryButton after the 'OK'.
I process the input text in the 'onSubmit' event of the button.
If the data is correct, I want to clear the inputted text.
I tried setValue, setText on the button.
I see that after this is called, there is a setValue called with the inputted data.
Any way around this??

THANX in advance

  • This is a difficult question to answer without more info. Can you provide some source code to have a look at? Any more info is helpful.

    Thanks,

  • Pretty straight forward here with removed style stuff:
    this.controls.pinNumber = new KONtx.control.TextEntryButton({
    events: {
    onSelect: function(event) {
    log("value set!")
    },
    onSubmit: function(event) {
    log("Password: " + event.payload.value);
    com.Utilities.setCurrentOrderLoginPin(event.payload.value );
    },
    }
    }).appendTo(this.element.submitOrder);

  • There are three "masking" options. The default is unmasked, the second draws * instead of each letter your type 'mask-all', and the third replaces the characters with *'s after you hit enter 'mask-submitted'. Perhaps that will give you some of the desired behavior? Another option is adding a time delayed callback to clear the text.

    This is from my working application:

    CODE
            that.controls.password_text_entry = new KONtx.control.TextEntryButton({
                id: 'pw-entry-button',
                label: $_('password'),
                secureMask: true,
                secureMaskType: 'mask-all',
                styles: {
                    vOffset: toff
                }
            }).appendTo(this);


    Hope that helps!
