Detailed Description

A text widget.

The text widget is a widget for displaying, selecting and editing text.

On its own it can be used to edit multiple lines of text, but it will probably be used embedded inside other widgets, like:

  • label_widget to display translated text together with an optional icon.
  • text_field_widget to edit a value of diffent types, includig integers, floating point, strings, etc.

Features:

  • Multiple paragraphs.
  • Uses the unicode line break algorithm to wrap lines when not enough horizontal space.
  • Used the unicode word break algorithm for selecting and moving through words.
  • Uses the unicode scentence break algorithm for selecting and moving through scentences.
  • Uses the unicode bidi algorithm for displaying text in mixed left-to-right & right-to-left languages.
  • Displays secondary cursor where text in the other language-direction will be inserted.
  • Keeps track if the user has just worked in left-to-right or right-to-left language.
  • Arrow keys move the cursor visually through the text
  • Handles insertion and overwrite mode; showing a caret or box cursor.
  • When entering dead-key on the keyboard the dead-key character is displayed underneath a secondary overwrite cursor.
  • Cut, Copy & Paste.
  • Undo & Redo.
