Detailed Description

TextControl provides a styled text field with built-in input validation based on the property type. It is the default control used by the simulation control panel for properties that do not have a more specific editor (such as enums, booleans, or ranges).

The control automatically applies the appropriate IntValidator or DoubleValidator depending on the valueType, and exposes a typedValue property that returns the text content parsed into the correct JavaScript type.

Usage

TextControl inherits from TextField, so all standard TextField properties such as text, placeholderText, and signals such as editingFinished are available.

TextControl {
    valueType: "int"
    text: backend.speed
    onEditingFinished: backend.setSpeed(text)
}

Property Documentation

typedValue : var

This property holds the current text content parsed into the JavaScript type corresponding to valueType. For "int" it returns an integer, for "real" a floating-point number, and for "string" the raw text string.

valueType : string

This property defines the expected type for input validation and parsing. Accepted values are "string", "int", and "real".

When set to "int", an IntValidator is applied and only integer input is accepted. When set to "real", a DoubleValidator is applied and decimal input is accepted. When set to "string" (the default), no validator is applied.

By default, the property is set to "string".
