DESCRIPTION

A control with a multi line text entry field that scrolls horizontally when lines overflow.

Functions

Not a lot here but... well, it's just a simple widget.

new( )

my $text = LibUI::NonWrappingMultilineEntry->new( );

Creates a new multi line entry that does not wrap text on overflow.

append( ... )

$text->append(qq[-- \nJohn Smith\nsmithj\@work.email]);

Appends text to the multi line entry's text.

onChanged( ... )

$date->onChanged(
sub {
    my ($ctrl, $data) = @_;
    warn $ctrl->text;
}, undef);

Registers a callback for when the user changes the multi line entry's text.

Expected parameters include:

$callback - CodeRef that should expect the following:
$date - backreference to the instance that initiated the callback
$data - user data registered with the sender instance
$data - user data to be passed to the callback

Note: The callback is not triggered when calling setText( ... ) or append( ... ).

readonly( )

if( $text->readonly ) {
    ...;
}

Returns whether or not the multi line entry's text can be changed.

setReadonly( ... )

$text->setReadonly( 1 );

Sets whether or not the multi line entry's text is read only.

text( )

warn $date->text;

Returns the multi line entry's text.

setTime( ... )

$date->setTime( 'We need to get to work.' );

Sets the multi line entry's text.
