When using a textfield on macOS with the following properties
HasBorder = false
AllowFocusRing = false
and displaying it in any other window type than document (Sheet, Modal etc. etc.), once the window is opened you see a textfield control which is bigger than others, but once the focus is lost, it will not happen again (wether receiving or loosing focus)
I develop custom controls, including a custom input field which uses declares and textfield, and this happens when I use my control within a modal and once it’s focused for the FIRST time:
And after it looses focus and receives it again (like in the demo, all is normal)
Your control looks exactly like a search field control. I just wonder if a standard control would just work? Possibly not.
In terms of a bug the best place to do that is in Issues. Create a simple reproducible example and add a ticket. Put the example on there, together with the steps to reproduce the problem. Spell out what should happen and what actually happens.
You know from your own applications when someone says something goes wrong, it helps enormously when you can see it go wrong in a reproducible way. That sort of bug report gets far better traction than those without. It’s also worth discussing the issue here with others to encourage them to sign on to the bug report (post the number and issue link here). The more people affected the more chance of a fix.
I know what you mean, but the control has a few components and CAN look like a search field (it has a custom icon (SVG), label, input area and supports multiple complex masks, autocomplete etc. etc.
