I want to add EditField and 2 objectchoicefields in horizontalfieldmanager. Editfield should have rounded corners. Following is code i have written.

hfm = new HorizontalFieldManager();
search_field = new BasicEditField()
{
protected void layout(int width, int height)
{
int w = Display.getWidth()/2-50;
setExtent(w, font.getHeight());
};
protected void paintBackground(Graphics graphics)
{
graphics.setColor(Color.BLACK);
graphics.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
}
protected void onFocus(int direction)
{
setLabel("");
};
protected void onUnfocus()
{
setLabel("Search");
};
};

hfm_search.setBackground(BackgroundFactory.createLinearGradientBackground(0x00e0e0e0, 0x00e0e0e0, 0x00e0e0e0, 0x00e0e0e0));

search_field.setLabel("Search");
search_field.setFont(font);

XYEdges edge = new XYEdges (5,5,5,5);
search_field.setBorder (BorderFactory.createRoundedBorder (edge, Border.STYLE_SOLID));

search_field.setPadding(5,10,5,10);

hfm_search.add(search_field);

ObjectChoiceField combo1 = new ObjectChoiceField("", str1);
ObjectChoiceField combo2 = new ObjectChoiceField("",str2);

comboShows.setFont(font);
comboPrice.setFont(font);

hfm_search.add(combo1);
hfm_search.add(combo2);

add(hfm_search);

My problem is that i am unable to type inside search_field. I set it as Editable still the same thing is happening.

Even i am not able to focues the search_field and other 2 combos, Next to that i want to set backgroundcolor to Horizontalfieldmanager as gray. But search_field's background color should be white. when i set background color like i have set in code search_field's background color also becomes gray. Please someone help.

Use This :

search_field = new BasicEditField()
		{
			protected void onFocus(int direction)
			{
				this.setText("");
			};
			protected void onUnfocus()
			{
				this.setText("Search");
			};
		};
		search_field.setBackground(BackgroundFactory.createSolidBackground(Color.WHITE));
		search_field.setText("Search");

		XYEdges edge = new XYEdges (5,5,5,5);
		search_field.setBorder (BorderFactory.createRoundedBorder (edge, Border.STYLE_SOLID));

		final ObjectChoiceField combo1 = new ObjectChoiceField("", str1);
		final ObjectChoiceField combo2 = new ObjectChoiceField("",str2);
		hfm_search = new HorizontalFieldManager(){
			protected void sublayout(int maxWidth, int maxHeight) {
				setPositionChild(search_field, 10, 5);
				layoutChild(search_field, 150, 50);
				setPositionChild(combo1, 160, 0);
				layoutChild(combo1, 120, 50);
				setPositionChild(combo2, 280, 0);
				layoutChild(combo2, 80, 50);
				setExtent(maxWidth, 50);
			}
		};

		hfm_search.setBackground(BackgroundFactory.createSolidBackground(Color.GRAY));
		hfm_search.add(search_field);
		hfm_search.add(combo1);
		hfm_search.add(combo2);

		add(hfm_search);
