Hello,

Does MUI/Royale support placeholder text for string fields?

Do you mean that the String object already has some content when it's shown? See "String.Contents" in MUIRoyale documentation.

Like this:

When the text 'contents' are empty it shows 'Your first name...'

Hmm. Showing some text isn't a problem, but that text should disappear when someone enters text. I guess that requires a custom MUI class with own event handler. The MUI way of showing some hints to the user is to add "bubble help" with Area.ShortHelp
