Textfield

Textfields are objects, where the user can write something on multiple lines. it act's like the default edit script (without coloring)
Here is a example of how to create a default textfield:

local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame("myFirstFrame"):show()
local aTextfield = mainFrame:addTextfield("myFirstTextfield"):show()

This will create a default textfield with the size 10 width and 4 height on position 1 1 (relative to its parent frame), the default background is colors.gray, the default text color is colors.black and the default zIndex is 5.

A list of all possible functions available for textfields. Remember textfield inherits from object:
