Interaction
On hover over the text field, the mouse cursor will change to a text cursor.
On click:
Where where no text has been inserted into added to the field:
A a text cursor will appear at the beginning of the input text field.
The the hint text will disappear.
Where where text already exists in the field:
A a text cursor will appear in the place position where the user clickedclicks.
Doubledouble-clicking a word inside the text field will select that word.
Tripletriple-clicking the text field will select all of the text.
Clicking away from the text field, if no text has been added, the hint text will reappear.
If a character limit was set, reaching the limit will prevent the user from keeping typing.
When used as a secured field (for example, password), the characters are hidden, also when typing (displayed as dots).
...
As text is entered it will appear from the left-hand side.
Text characters may be masked (secured text field only).
Once the cursor reaches the end of the field, it will stop and new characters will be added at that point. The start of the text string will disappear on the left-hand side of the field.
If a character limit has been set, reaching the limit will prevent the user from entering any more characters.
When the user clicks away and the field becomes inactive:
if the text string exceeds the width of the field, the start of the text string will come back into view.
if no text has been added the hint text will reappear.

Responsive design
Verint products should support all devices down to the common tablet size (960px width). For general guidelines, see Fundamentals - Responsive design.
Where the available space is narrow:
the width of the text field should dynamically respond to its container, taking up 100% of the available space.
the label for the text area should be shown above the field, rather than to the left.
