The Solution.
The textField isn't empty, just setting the chars to transparent, or the
same as the backgroundColor of the textField.
So, one has to do this:
set the useUnicode to true
set the unicodeText of fld "OOTPUT" to the unicodeText of fld "OOTPUT" &
numToChar(XXXXX)
set the textColor of fld "OOTPUT" to "black"
and this has to be done EVERY TIME a new char is appended.
You didn't mention filing a bug report, so it bears asking. Did you
file one? There have been past bugs where the cursor has been
apparently invisible but in reality was just set to white. Perhaps
this bug, now that you have identified the problem, will be relatively
easy to fix.
Bug report or no bug report, I have to work with LC 4.5.
A sorted out bug would appear in a later version; one for which I,
currently (and many others, I suspect) do not have the money to buy.
Therefore, from my point of view, at least, these sorts of work arounds
are very important.
