Struct native_windows_gui::TextBox

pub struct TextBox {
    pub handle: ControlHandle,
}

An edit control is a rectangular control window to permit the user to enter and edit text by typing on the keyboard This control allow multi line input. For a single line of text, use TextInput.

Requires the textbox feature.

Note: Use \r\n to input a new line not just \n.

Builder parameters:

• parent: Required. The text box parent container.
• text: The text box text.
• size: The text box size.
• position: The text box position.
• flags: A combination of the TextBoxFlags values.
• ex_flags: A combination of win32 window extended flags. Unlike flags, ex_flags must be used straight from winapi
• font: The font used for the text box text
• limit: The maximum number of character that can be inserted in the control
• readonly: If the textbox should allow user input or not
• focus: The control receive focus after being created

Control events:

• OnTextInput: When a TextBox value is changed
• MousePress(_): Generic mouse press events on the button
• OnMouseMove: Generic mouse mouse event
• OnMouseWheel: Generic mouse wheel event
• OnKeyPress: Generic key press event
• OnKeyRelease: Generic key release event

Implementations

impl TextBox

pub fn builder<'a>() -> TextBoxBuilder<'a>

pub fn font(&self) -> Option<Font>

Return the font of the control

pub fn set_font(&self, font: Option<&Font>)

Set the font of the control

pub fn limit(&self) -> u32

Return the number of maximum character allowed in this text input

pub fn set_limit(&self, limit: usize)

Set the number of maximum character allowed in this text input

pub fn modified(&self) -> bool

Check if the content of the text input was modified after it’s creation

pub fn set_modified(&self, e: bool)

Manually set modified flag of the text input

pub fn undo(&self)

Undo the last action by the user in the control

pub fn selection(&self) -> Range<u32>

Return the selected range of characters by the user in the text input

pub fn set_selection(&self, r: Range<u32>)

Return the selected range of characters by the user in the text input

pub fn len(&self) -> u32

Return the length of the user input in the control. This is better than test.len() as it does not allocate a string in memory

pub fn readonly(&self) -> bool

Return true if the TextInput value cannot be edited. Retrurn false otherwise. A user can still copy text from a readonly TextEdit (unlike disabled)

pub fn set_readonly(&self, r: bool)

Set the readonly flag of the text input A user can still copy text from a readonly TextEdit (unlike disabled)

pub fn clear(&self)

Remove all text from the textbox

pub fn focus(&self) -> bool

Return true if the control currently has the keyboard focus

pub fn set_focus(&self)

Set the keyboard focus on the button

pub fn enabled(&self) -> bool

Return true if the control user can interact with the control, return false otherwise

pub fn set_enabled(&self, v: bool)

Enable or disable the control

pub fn visible(&self) -> bool

Return true if the control is visible to the user. Will return true even if the control is outside of the parent client view (ex: at the position (10000, 10000))

pub fn set_visible(&self, v: bool)

Show or hide the control to the user

pub fn size(&self) -> (u32, u32)

Return the size of the button in the parent window

pub fn set_size(&self, x: u32, y: u32)

Set the size of the button in the parent window

pub fn position(&self) -> (i32, i32)

Return the position of the button in the parent window

pub fn set_position(&self, x: i32, y: i32)

Set the position of the button in the parent window

pub fn text(&self) -> String

Return the text displayed in the TextInput

pub fn set_text<'a>(&self, v: &'a str)

Set the text displayed in the TextInput

pub fn class_name(&self) -> &'static str

Winapi class name used during control creation

pub fn flags(&self) -> u32

Winapi base flags used during window creation

pub fn forced_flags(&self) -> u32

Winapi flags required by the control
