iOSTextField text color 2019r3

My iOSTextField color (a dark green) behaves correctly in iDevice simulators in Xcode 11.3; however when I build and upload the app to a device, the login text, for example, starts as either white or transparent (against a white background), and when I enter @ in the Email Address placeholder; the invisible previous text often reverts to a tiny row of red dots. Any color expression worked correctly with earlier Xojo versions. This is running in iOS 12.4.4; it works correctly on iOS 13.2. The iPad won’t upgrade any further.

My IDE text field specs:

results in this on the iPad: …after I entered the email address.

Once I enter the password, it does take the text I entered correctly.

Ideas?

That menu to the right of the Text Color is for selecting a ColorGroup. You might try creating a color group and assigning that.

So once again, the answer to an IDE f-up is in code. Bravo.

I’m having trouble reproducing this. Have you filed a bug report?

Art G already did.
