Forget about default textbox restrictions, you can create sprites atop of the textbox

Is there a Property for the TextBox to set a maximum number of characters a user can input in the field?

Thanks,

BJA

There isn't a property, but this will do it:

I cannot find a "Set text to left" command anywhere. How do I get that in there?
