CocosStudio native text input

CocosStudio provides the ability to construct TextFieldTTF instances but compared to extension::EditBox they are quite limited; no copy/paste/select/cursor/magnify etc which are provided by iOS and Android.

Are there any plans for these features? And does anyone have any ideas for a workaround if not?

You could create a native activity / view controller and pop it up as a dialog, collect the text and feed it back to C++.

EditBox already provides the implementation, however I have been wanting to move my UI pipeline over to cocosStudio and wanted to avoid having to edit the parser.

Sorry, I guess I misunderstood the question. Good luck!
