iOSTextField and iOSTextArea background color

Targets iOS
1

I needed it for myself, so I just added BackgroundColor as color to XojoiOSWrapper.

For use, do

myTextArea.BackgroundColor = &cFF000050

It does support Alpha Channel. For my app, I made it transparent.

This doesn’t seems to work when the control is inside an iOSContainerControl

Bug or feature?

If you place the code in the Open event of the TextArea or in the Open event of the container control, the code will never be executed.

This is a known bug in Xojo iOS. <https://xojo.com/issue/44743>

The solution is to create a method named Constructor in the iOSContainerControl and place all initialization code in there.
