I am using the code from this code:
UITextField* textField = UITextField::create();
textField->setTouchEnabled(true);
textField->setFontName(“Arial”);
textField->setFontSize(30);
textField->setPlaceHolder(“input words here”);
textField->setPosition(ccp(visibleSize.width / 2, visibleSize.height / 3));
textField->addEventListenerTextField(this, textfieldeventselector(HelloWorld::textFieldEvent));
layer->addWidget(textField);
and I want to display the text in Text Area
