Tizen on screen keyboard (entry component) text cutoff - c

Question

I am creating my first tizen app, for a watch. I have started with the SettingUI sample code, and have added a 'name' item to the genlist, which I want to push a view where I enter my name. I will enter my name using an entry (on screen keyboard) component.
I see the keyboard in the emulator but the "A short text" text is partially cutoff at the top and left of the screen. It's as if the text flows in a SQUARE shape, but should flow in a CIRCLE shape. (But I do have a circle surface applied to the naviframe). If I switch the entry to single line (not multiline) then the text is actually hidden behind the keyboard). And the naviframe is inside the conformant.
Can anyone explain how I would make the entry (keyboard) text appear properly onscreen?
void _setting_name_cb(void *data, Evas_Object *obj, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED)
{
appdata_s *ad = data;
Evas_Object *naviframe = ad->naviframe;
Elm_Object_Item *nf_it = NULL;
/* Unhighlight Item */
elm_genlist_item_selected_set((Elm_Object_Item *)event_info, EINA_FALSE);
// Create a keyboard (entry) and add to naviframe
Evas_Object *entry;
entry = elm_entry_add(naviframe);
elm_entry_entry_set(entry, "A short text.");
// Push the entry onto the naviframe to show it
nf_it = elm_naviframe_item_push(naviframe, _("Slider"), NULL, NULL, entry, "empty");
// Set the callback of the naviframe when layout popped off
elm_naviframe_item_pop_cb_set(nf_it, _setting_name_finished_cb, ad);
}

You can use size_hint property with ui containers.
void _setting_name_cb(void *data, Evas_Object *obj, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED)
{
appdata_s *ad = data;
Evas_Object *naviframe = ad->naviframe;
Elm_Object_Item *nf_it = NULL;
/* Unhighlight Item */
elm_genlist_item_selected_set((Elm_Object_Item *)event_info, EINA_FALSE);
// Create a Box
Evas_Object *box;
box = elm_box_add(naviframe);
evas_object_show(box);
// Create a keyboard (entry) and add to box
Evas_Object *entry;
entry = elm_entry_add(box);
elm_entry_entry_set(entry, "A short text.");
evas_object_size_hint_weight_set(entry, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND);
evas_object_size_hint_align_set(entry, EVAS_HINT_FILL, 0.5);
evas_object_size_hint_padding_set(entry, 50, 50, 30, 240);
elm_entry_single_line_set(entry, EINA_TRUE);
elm_entry_scrollable_set(entry, EINA_TRUE);
evas_object_show(entry);
elm_box_pack_end(box, entry);
// Push the entry onto the naviframe to show it
nf_it = elm_naviframe_item_push(naviframe, _("Slider"), NULL, NULL, box, "empty");
// Set the callback of the naviframe when layout popped off
elm_naviframe_item_pop_cb_set(nf_it, _setting_finished_cb, ad);
}
