TIMOB-6000 exposed a need for developers to be able to control the location and selection area of cursors in text fields since the current behavior is platform dependent.
var text = Ti.UI.createTextField({top: 100, value: "This is Sparta."});
//var text = Ti.UI.createTextArea({top: 100, value: "This is Sparta."});
var win = Ti.UI.createWindow();
var button = Ti.UI.createButton({bottom: 50, title: "text selection"});
button.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
text.setSelection(0, 4);
});
win.add(text);
win.add(button);
win.open();
Testing steps:
1. Run code
2. Click on button, should see "This" is selected
3. Comment out the first line, uncomment the 2nd line and re-run
4. Click on button, should see same behavior.
