The TextArea is defined in the Qt Components common API.
Some features were added as a plasma specific behaviour for this component:
- It emit the keys pressed and released signals
- Implements a focus policy
- The current implementation only covers the desktop use case.
For mobile use, a flickable text area with scroll decorators
would be more appropriate.
- Scroll bars appears only if the content is bigger than the content.
- The width of the the scroll bars can be setted through the scrollWidth
property
- The size of the text content can also be setted. For this the properties
contentMaxWidth and contentMaxHeight must be used. The default value
is the dimensions of the TextArea.
The current state of the implemention lacks of:
- A behaviour for hover state, present in other components
- A errorHighlight usage
- Polish the visual alignment of the SVGs items
- Lacks of right mouse button interaction.
Would be interesting to use it to cut & paste operations.
