Enum MenuAction 

pub enum MenuAction {
    SetClipboard {
        text: String,
        html: Option<String>,
    },
    SetClipboardSecret {
        text: String,
    },
    Paste,
    LookUp {
        text: String,
        at: Vec2,
    },
}

What choosing an item leaves for the host to do, drained with crate::runtime::Core::take_menu_actions the way window and audio commands are.

The clipboard is the host’s in this library — the runner already reads and writes it for Cmd-C/X/V — and nothing here changes that. The core works out what to copy, which is the half it is uniquely able to do, and hands over a string.

Variants

SetClipboard

Put this on the system clipboard. Both Copy and Cut produce one; Cut has already removed the text by the time it arrives.

html is the same selection with the formatting the core knows about (bold, italic, a span’s declared colour), for a host that can offer a second flavour. It is an addition to text, never a replacement: a clipboard whose only flavour is HTML pastes markup into every plain-text field on the machine.

Fields

text: String

html: Option<String>

SetClipboardSecret

Put this secret on the system clipboard the way a password manager does: the text, marked concealed and transient — org.nspasteboard.ConcealedType and TransientType on macOS, excluded from monitoring, history and the cloud clipboard on Windows, x-kde-passwordManagerHint: secret on Linux — so a clipboard manager neither shows nor keeps it. Queued by Core::set_clipboard_secret, never by a menu row. Plain text only: a secret has no formatting to offer.

Fields

text: String

Paste

Read the clipboard and deliver it as InputEvent::Paste: a focused editor takes it as typing, the way it takes Cmd-V, and a focused key sink hears it as {kind:"text"} — which is how an app that owns its text gets a paste it asked for with Core::request_paste. The core cannot read a clipboard, so Paste is the one standard item it can only ask for. The answer carries the pasteboard’s markers (crate::input::ClipboardMarks), and an answer that is a bare InputEvent::Commit is one that marked nothing.

LookUp

Show the platform’s definition panel for text, anchored at rect (logical viewport px — the word’s own box, which is what macOS’s showDefinitionForAttributedString:atPoint: wants). Both the Look Up row and a force click over text produce one; a host that cannot show a panel drops it, and is never offered the row in the first place (Core::set_lookup_available).

Fields

text: String

at: Vec2

The baseline origin of the selection’s first line, logical viewport px — the point showDefinitionForAttributedString:atPoint: takes and draws the term back over. Not a box’s corner: a box’s bottom puts the term a line low, and a multi-run selection’s union puts it under the last line while the panel shows the first.
