It was sugested somewhere before and I think it's good idea. This will avoid safe checks with each user entered text. But is it possible to do this not breaking compatibility with previous version?

If there's no such possibility I'm still for it, but the best would be to have back compatibility :)
Don't worry about backward compatibility in the trunk. That's why we have an release and unstable branches.

edit:
Of course if you can make it backward compatible without introducing a bunch of ugliness, that's great.

An option to make it backward compatible is to make separate functions and not flags.

I have for approximately a week no camera but after that I will try to implement one of this (flags or functions).

Yes, I think extend with new function is good idea.

No problem with reconcile any changes in the module. This is what is API_VERSION purposed for.
If you will add new functions then increase minor version of api version in libtextbox.
If your changes will be backward incompatible, then increase major num in api version

Now I have a new idea: I think it's better to make more input boxes (e.g. intBox, listBox ...) and no flags, because then the code is easier and only the really needed modules must be loaded.

I like it... it's Unix-like philosophy - let's have a lot of programs, where every one can do only one thing, but it does it well. So we could have such boxes:

- textBox - what we have now
- intBox - for numbers
- floatBox  - float numbers (one dot)
- listBox - check one item
- filenameBox - only 8+3 filenames

I have finished a number input box (double/int).
You can apply the patch in the attachment and try it.
If you select _nbox.flt you can enter a number between -1.5 and 5.7 (only for testing)

The function "doublebox_init" to input double values or "intbox_init" to input int values.
On cancel the callback is called with "max value + 1".

Here is a patch to add "_" and "£" to the textbox.

I have found a bug (only found it because it was causing a visible display glitch on the sx280 due to the higher resolution). The placement of the right "long text marker" was wrong.
Patch attached (should work for both 1.3 and trunk). I'm not committing it because there might be other issues I did not notice.

I'm not sure I see the issue.
As far as I can tell the patch does not change the functionality.

If maxlen < MAX_TEXT_WIDTH then you can't input a string that won't fit on the screen so you should never see the markers.
If maxlen >= MAX_TEXT_WIDTH then fldlen == MAX_TEXT_WIDTH and the code is the same as before the patch.

What am I missing here?

My description was not accurate enough. The problem happens when the right marker is not shown. The rest of my patch can be regarded as noise.

else draw_char(text_offset_x+MAX_TEXT_WIDTH*FONT_WIDTH, text_offset_y, ' ', MAKE_COLOR(COLOR_GREY, COLOR_GREY));
