User Input Textfield not shadowed in console mode
We have an installer that contains a GetUserInput panel, on this there are three subcomponents of which two are intended for the user to provide a password (and then a second copy of it). These controls have been configured with Input Echo Character option of 'Shadowed' which all works fine in GUI mode, but when running in console mode the users inputs are displayed in plain text.
Is this a known limitation / defect / are there alternative input controls that should be used for this scenario?
Kind regards,
/jc
