I Tried with previous version 0.25.1 and did not work.

[iilter]

I tried same code on windows and it worked.
I think the problem is in macOs.
How can I solve this problem.
Flet version 0.25.2

The below is what I am getting:

which I think is the intended behaviour?

import flet as ft

class Field(ft.TextField):
    def __init__(self, label=None, autofocus=False):
        super().__init__()
        self.label = label
        self.autofocus = autofocus
        self.filled = True
        self.label_style = ft.TextStyle(
            size=12
        )
        self.border = ft.InputBorder.OUTLINE
        self.border_color = ft.colors.GREEN_500
        self.focused_border_color = ft.colors.ORANGE_800
        self.focused_color = ft.colors.ORANGE_700


def main(page: ft.Page):
    page.title = "Custom TextField Example"

    # Create an instance of the custom Field
    custom_field = Field(label="Custom Field", autofocus=True)

    # Add the custom field to the page
    page.add(custom_field)

ft.app(target=main)

Tested on MacOS 15.2 - Flet 0.25.2

Could you please share a minimal reproducible example (similarly as I did above with a section of code which runs) if you're still getting this issue?

I think, I found the cause of the problem.
Firstly, let me share the working code and screenshot.

`
import flet as ft

class Field(ft.TextField):
def init(self, label=None, autofocus=False):
super().init()
self.label = label
self.autofocus = autofocus
# self.adaptive = True
self.filled = True
self.label_style = ft.TextStyle(
size=12
)
self.icon = ft.Icons.PERSON
self.border = ft.InputBorder.OUTLINE
self.border_color = ft.colors.GREEN_500
self.focused_border_color = ft.colors.ORANGE_800
self.focused_color = ft.colors.ORANGE_700

class CustomPage(ft.Container):
def init(self):
super().init()

    custom_field = Field(label="Custom Field 1", autofocus=True)
    custom_field2 = Field(label='Custom Field 2')

    self.content = ft.Column(
        controls=[
            custom_field,
            custom_field2
        ]
    )

def main(page: ft.Page):
page.title = "Custom TextField Example"

# page.adaptive = True

page_custom = CustomPage()
page.add(ft.SafeArea(page_custom))

ft.app(target=main)
`

and screenshot

When I open one of the two lines I closed as a comment line, it does not work, so adaptive = True.
It also does not work when using CupertinoTextField instead of TextField.

Note: The same code (with adaptive = True) works in Windows.

@iilter - I think the behaviour that is being displayed is correct.

• Correct me if I am wrong, I haven't had an iPhone in a while - but isn't this behaviour simply tailoring the experience to match the native environment? (by using a Cupertino control)

That is, that on Mac/iOS, this is how users expect text boxes to behave?

Secondly:

• On Windows, we would expect for Adaptive = True to have a nil effect (ie. as you say, it works). See the documentation here: https://flet.dev/docs/controls/textfield/
• Effectively, that Adaptive = True is controlling whether or not the Cupertino control is slotted in when the environment is Darwin.
