thx for (1) and (2)



(3) well, I just can´t find any tutorials in the manual where textinputfields are, just the nifty things i don´t want to use …

surely i´m willing to learn the necessary things, but maybe the manual still is not really first-time-user-friendly …



Would you be so kind to tell me where i can find things about textinput possibilites in the manual or the tutorials…

even just a link to the proper classes in the javadoc would be something good for me to start my working …
