Problem with InKeyStr()

Hello,
if I set the password flag the
InKeyStr() function returns asterisks instead of the typed string.
Code: Select all
a = InKeyStr(#ALL, 100, False)
DebugPrint(a)
b = InKeyStr(#ALL, 100, True)
DebugPrint(b)
DebugPrompt("HIT ENTER")
I'm using it with Layers enabled, but the same problem exists also without layers...

Seems to work right here. Hollywood7.1 and Windows.
First it shows typed letters, second try it shows asterisk.

@Bugala
Only the echo to the console is supposed to be asterisks. The variable assignment is supposed to be unaffected.

ah, i see. That happens here too that the variable assignment is asterisks as well.

Code: Select all
- Fix: InKeyStr() simply returned a string full of asterisks when password mode was active, which is
not quite what password mode was made for

Another problem I've noted with InKeyStr is that if an empty string is entered, it will reset the print statement to the upper left of the screen and overwrite existing text.

Code: Select all
- Fix: When entering an empty string in InKeyStr(), the cursor position was reset to the top-left corner
