Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QQuickInputMethod()

QT_BEGIN_NAMESPACE QQuickInputMethod::QQuickInputMethod ( QObject * parent = nullptr)
explicit

\qmlsingletontype InputMethod \inqmlmodule QtQuick

Provides access to \l QInputMethod for QML applications.

The InputMethod singleton allows access to application's \l QInputMethod object and all its properties and slots. See the \l QInputMethod documentation for further details.

Since
6.4

\qmlproperty rect InputMethod::cursorRectangle

Input item's cursor rectangle in window coordinates.

The cursor rectangle is often used by various text editing controls like text prediction popups for following the text being typed.

\qmlproperty rect InputMethod::anchorRectangle

Input item's anchor rectangle in window coordinates.

The anchor rectangle is often used by various text editing controls like text prediction popups for following the text selection.

\qmlproperty rect InputMethod::keyboardRectangle

Virtual keyboard's geometry in window coordinates.

This might be an empty rectangle if it is not possible to know the geometry of the keyboard. This is the case for a floating keyboard on android.

\qmlproperty rect InputMethod::inputItemClipRectangle

Input item's clipped rectangle in window coordinates.

The clipped input rectangle is often used by various input methods to determine how much screen real estate is available for the input method (e.g. Virtual Keyboard).

\qmlproperty bool InputMethod::visible

Virtual keyboard's visibility on the screen

The value of this property remains false for devices with no virtual keyboards.

See also
show(), hide()

\qmlproperty bool InputMethod::animating

True when the virtual keyboard is being opened or closed.

The value of this property is false when keyboard is fully open or closed. When animating is true and visibility is true keyboard is being opened. When animating is true and visibility is false keyboard is being closed.

\qmlproperty Locale InputMethod::locale

Current input locale.

\qmlproperty enumeration InputMethod::inputDirection

Current input direction.

Possible values:

\value Qt.LeftToRight (default) Items are laid out from left to right. \value Qt.RightToLeft Items are laid out from right to left.

\qmlmethod void InputMethod::commit()

Commits the word that the user is currently composing to the editor. The function is mostly needed by the input methods with text prediction features and by the methods where the script used for typing characters is different from the script that actually gets appended to the editor. Any kind of action that interrupts the text composing needs to flush the composing state by calling the commit() function, for example when the cursor is moved elsewhere.

\qmlmethod void InputMethod::hide()

Requests the virtual keyboard to close.

Normally applications should not need to call this function, as the keyboard should close automatically when the text editor loses focus, for example when the parent view is closed.

\qmlmethod void InputMethod::invokeAction(var a, int cursorPosition)

Called by the input item when the word currently being composed is tapped by the user, as indicated by the action a and the given cursorPosition. Input methods often use this information to offer more word suggestions to the user.

See also
QInputMethod::Action

\qmlmethod void InputMethod::reset()

Resets the input method state. For example, a text editor normally calls this method before inserting a text to make widget ready to accept a text.

Input method resets automatically when the focused editor changes.

\qmlmethod void InputMethod::show()

Requests the virtual keyboard to open. If the platform doesn't provide a virtual keyboard the visibility remains false.

Normally applications should not need to call this function, as the keyboard should open automatically when the text editor gains focus.

\qmlmethod void InputMethod::update(enumeration queries)

Called by the input item to inform the platform input methods when there have been state changes in the editor's input method query attributes. When calling the function queries parameter has to be used to tell what has changed. An input method can use this to make queries for attributes it is interested in with QInputMethodQueryEvent.

In particular calling update() whenever the cursor position changes is important as that often causes other query attributes, like surrounding text and text selection, to change as well. The attributes that often change together with cursor position have been grouped in Qt::ImQueryInput value for convenience.
