Focusing RkTextInput

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

I tried to implement the code to focus on the next text input field but I cannot get it to work.

<RkTextInput style={InputStyles.inputContainer} labelStyle={InputStyles.label} inputStyle={InputStyles.text} label='Password' placeholder="minimum 8 characters" secureTextEntry={true} autoCapitalize='none' autoCorrect={false} returnKeyType='next' keyboardType='default' ref="password" onSubmitEditing={() => this.refs.confirmPassword.focus() }/>

Any idea on how I can focus on the next RkTextInput please?

Hi, you can focus it with this.refs.confirmPassword._focusInput(),

I guess we will refactor name of method in future.

Hey! be careful… the function is “the input ref”.focusInput( ); not ._focusInput( ); 😄
