SDK Sign in UI corruption
I'm developing an iOS app and using the latest version of the Dropbox SDK for iOS (Version Version 1.3.14, updated March 24, 2016)
When I display the UI prompt for logging in, I get an issue with the the text entry boxes in that the placeholder text remains in place when the
email and password are entered, resulting in a corrupted overlay effect (see attached image).

Has anyone experienced this or have a solution? (I've tried on iOS 8.2 and 9.2)

Hi Gregory,
Thanks for getting back to me. Is it possible to get a link to a previous version of the SDK that doesn't exhibit the above described behavior? I'm pretty sure this a new bug?

This seems to be a server-side issue, so you wouldn't be able to resolve it by downgrading the SDK you use. That also means that you won't need to do anything to get the fix once we resolve it on our side though.

Ok, thanks. Any idea on the timescales for the fix?
