class CustomEditField extends EditField{

    CustomEditField(String text) {

        super("",text);

    }

    public void layout(int width, int height){

        super.layout(getPreferredWidth(),getPreferredHeight());

        setExtent(getPreferredWidth(),getPreferredHeight());

    }

    public int getPreferredHeight(){

        return super.getPreferredHeight();

    }

    public int getPreferredWidth(){

        return (Display.getWidth()*2/3);

    }

}

this is my custom edit field.

when I type on this field and reaches end of the field, can n't see the letters after that, but i can type( only thing is typed letters are not visible after end of field)

what is the solution

[mbasheerk]

[jMarc]

Scrolling?

[mbasheerk]

I thing you didnt got my problem

I have custom editfield where its width is set around 50;

when the width of typed text reaches 50(width of field), cant see remaining text after , but still ican  type and getText() return the full text!!!!!!!

Did you enable vertical scrolling in the Manager that contains this field?

[mbasheerk]

I have not disabled the scrol;

i thing by default its enabled

the field is within a horizontalfieldmanager

I'm pretty sure you need to explicitly enable scrolling. See the Manager javadocs.

Also, you are limiting the extent of your field, which may also defeat scrolling.
