[Android] Colors & cursor workaround for EditBox ?

[retrobruno]

Hello,

I'm searching for workaround about EditBox.

1) I would like to have two colors on an EditBox, but i think it is impossible for now, with Android exporter.
I've imagined a workaround, but i don't know if it is possible.
Is it possible to have two EditBox, with the same size, the same position, the same mono fonts, (like "Courier" or "CourierNew"), and set different colors for it, and transparent background for the EditBox at the top of the view ?
In this case, i think i should replace blanks from the top EditBox by texts with an other color at the bottom one ?
How CF 2.5 will works with it on Android ? Do you think it is possible ?
Or may be do you know a plugin i can order somewhere to do this properly ?

2) When i loose the focus on an EditBox, and when i get it again, by pushing on the EditBox, the cursor has changed its position.
Is there a solution to get and set its position within events ?

Sorry for the doublepost, i answer to myself :

The first problem could only be solved if the second is solved. But i've found no plugin to change the cursor (the caret) position of and editbox, both for Windows & Android.

Is it possible to simulate a click (or a simple touch) somewhere on the screen, by programmation ?

are you using two different object or copying teh same one?

if so you can not handle them correctly

my suggestion is to use a different editbox object for different fields

Thanks Fernando

You given me a great idea ! If i can't mix the two editbox in one, i can write references numbers in the first editbox text (for exemple "My text is here. [See sentence 1] My texte continue here"), and make a numbered list of sentences in the second.
