The TextBox input using the PasswordChar property has incorrect behavior on Android

[elargacha]

Describe the bug

Using a TextBox with the PasswordChar property, the first character I type is duplicated.

Char.repeated.in.Android.with.PasswordChar.mp4

To Reproduce

1. Create a new app from the Avalonia template.
2. Add the following code snippet (obtained from [11.0.0] TextBox input broken on Android since RC2 #12067, @msneijders) to the view:

    <StackPanel Margin="20" Spacing="20">
        <TextBox
            x:Name="text"
            HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
            VerticalAlignment="Center" />
        <TextBox
            x:Name="pass"
            HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
            VerticalAlignment="Center"
            PasswordChar="*" />
        <TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Text="{Binding #pass.Text}" />
    </StackPanel>

3. Write in the second text box and observe the behavior.

Expected behavior

Ensure that the text entered in the textbox is correct even when masked with "*". That means typing the corresponding character for the letter pressed on the keyboard and not duplicating any of them.

Could you test with the latest nightly builds?

@emmauss, the latest nightly builds? Aren't those version 11.1.0-beta1 and version 11.1.0-beta2?
If so, it's already been tested with both. I used the Avalonia template (11.0.2) to reproduce the issue. But I also updated to the latest nightly builds (and to .Net 8 version), and the issue still occurs.

Right! Sorry for the confusion...

I've set up the new source and tested it with Avalonia version 11.2.999-cibuild0048199-alpha, and it has still the same behavior.

Did you check if the feed is in your nugget config

nightly builds

Yes, is in my nugget config 👌

I'm unable to reproduce this on 11.1.0-beta2. Could you provide a minimal reproduction, with project and nuget config

I have tested with the latest version of Avalonia Nightly (11.2.999-cibuild0048370-alpha) and the bug is no longer reproducible.
With version 11.1.0-beta2, it still occurs, but predictive text must be enabled in the keyboard settings

if nightly solves the issue, I'll close it for now. If it happens in 11.1 release again, ping me and we can reopen the issue.
