TextField in cocos2d-x 3.0 with background image,

Question

I need a input text filed with:

1. background image
2. text aligned to center
3. text color, shadow and shadow color options

But I cannot find and appropriate one. I have investigated and found:

• cocos2d::extension::EditBox which has 1, but 2 and 3 are missing as I understand
• cocos2d::TextFieldTTF
• ui::UICCTextField
• ui::TextField

The latest 3 ones don't have 2 and 3 and also are not easy to use in terms of getting input.

cocos2d::Label seams to hove what I want (I can use a sprite for background), but it is not for input. What solution suggests cocos2d-x?

Answer 1

Now there is no way to do this not considering a new TextField definition. But cocos2d-x guys are going to merge TextField with UI system and maybe at that time it will support such features. See here: http://www.cocos2d-x.org/issues/5346#change-12942
