UIOBJECT EditBox

EditBox (inherits from and ) is an interactive text field for keyboard input.

A user can input text into the edit box which can then be retrieved using the EditBox:GetText function.

When declaring an edit box object make sure that you either set "font" attribute for <EditBox> element, or include a <FontString> element, thus declaring which font is to be used to display text input into your edit box. If you do not do so EditBox will not display any text, just a blinking cursor.

<EditBox name="TestEditBox"> .. Size .. Anchors .. Layers .. etc. <FontString inherits="GameFontNormal"/> </EditBox>
