Description

StEntry is a simple widget for displaying text. It derives from StWidget to add extra style and placement functionality over ClutterText. The internal ClutterText is publicly accessibly to allow applications to set further properties.

StEntry supports the following pseudo style states:

  • focus: the widget has focus

  • indeterminate: the widget is showing the hint text

  • hover: the widget is showing the hint text and is underneath the pointer
