How to update Input with an external string

[lmarzull]

Hello All,

I've the following application:

(Code of the window "Player info" is below)

When I press F10, there's a modal window like this one :

This modal allow the user to choose an existing character or to create a new one.
When coming back from the modal window, the player_name and character_name are updated from the character selected.
But .... This is working well for player_name (line numbered 28 below), but not for character_name (line numbered 27 below).

The text display by the input is the correct one, but I'm totally unable to edit it.
The cursor is moving according to key pressed (left, right, [a-z]) etc, but the text still stay the same and does not change.

Could you tell the proper way to update the Input component please?
Thank you very much for your help

Heu ... ok.

I just figure out why.

The Renderer method is called each frame ... so ... each frame I was updated the Input field with the same value !

Sorry ;-)
