Password editbox

Postby Anasky » Mon Dec 04, 2017 07:18

Hey all,

Does anyone have a clue how I can hide the password entered? I found the "setMaskCodePoint" on the forum questions, but that seems to be legacy code, and couldn't find anything on the tutorial page of the wiki.

Thanks in advance,
Anasky

I would probably do it like this:

First I check if the entry is a password entry.
-If it is, then I take the input and inject "*" to the system.
-else, inject user's input.

Thanks :)

@andrew: I would have done it that way too if CEGUI wouldn't have a system for it, but kind of figured it did ;) Just didn't know where
