password edit box

Post by angus »

I'm currently trying to find an easy way to generate a password Edit box in which the user input is displayed as a series of asteisks. Rather then try to reinvent the wheel is there a GUI element available to do this? thanks

I don´t think so, but you could derive CGUIEditBox and modify the rendering functions, so it displays asterisks instead of the password. Not much effort, I guess

Thanks. i looked at CGUIEditBox and see that it actually has a parameter that turns the edit box into a password box; great !
