STRUCTS

SendKeyboardInputCmd

Defined in fuchsia.ui.input/commands.fidl

Name	Type	Description	Default
`compositor_id`	`uint32`		No default
`keyboard_event`	`KeyboardEvent`		No default

SendPointerInputCmd

Defined in fuchsia.ui.input/commands.fidl

Name	Type	Description	Default
`compositor_id`	`uint32`		No default
`pointer_event`	`PointerEvent`		No default

SetHardKeyboardDeliveryCmd

Defined in fuchsia.ui.input/commands.fidl

Typically, clients should receive text inputs from an IME.

For cases where no IME mediation is desired (such as a game application), this command requests Scenic to deliver hard keyboard events to the client.

By default, Scenic will not deliver hard keyboard events to a client.

Name	Type	Description	Default
`delivery_request`	`bool`		No default

SetParallelDispatchCmd

Defined in fuchsia.ui.input/commands.fidl

Typically, clients that participate in the hit test should receive input events in parallel. This behavior is required for gesture disambiguation.

This command, typically set by the root presenter, allows disabling parallel dispatch; it is part of the input v2 transition work.

Name	Type	Description	Default
`parallel_dispatch`	`bool`		No default

KeyboardEvent

KeyboardEvent represents event generated by a user's interaction with a keyboard.

Those events are triggered by distinct pressed state changes of the keys.

The state transitions should be as follows: PRESSED -> (REPEAT ->) RELEASED or PRESSED -> (REPEAT ->) CANCELLED

The input system will repeat those events automatically when a code_point is available.

DEPRECATED: Will be removed in favor of fuchsia.ui.input.KeyEvent.

Name	Type	Description	Default
`event_time`	`uint64`	Time the event was delivered. The time is in nanoseconds and corresponds to the uptime of the machine.	No default

`modifiers`	`uint32`	Key modifiers as defined by the different kModifier constants such as `kModifierCapsLock` currently pressed	No default

PointerEvent

Pointers represent raw data about the user's interaction with the screen.

The state transitions should be as follows: ADD (-> HOVER) -> DOWN -> MOVE -> UP (-> HOVER) -> REMOVE

At any point after the initial ADD, a transition to CANCEL is also possible.

TextRange

Defined in fuchsia.ui.input/text_editing.fidl

A range of characters in a string of text. Although strings in FIDL's wire format are UTF-8 encoded, these indices are measured in UTF-16 code units for legacy reasons. These text input APIs will eventually be replaced by fuchsia.ui.text, which uses code points instead.

Name	Type	Description	Default
`start`	`int64`	The index of the first UTF-16 code unit in the range. If `start` and `end` are both -1, the text range is empty.	-1
`end`	`int64`	The next index after the last UTF-16 code unit in this range. If `start` and `end` are both -1, the text range is empty.	-1

TextSelection

Defined in fuchsia.ui.input/text_editing.fidl

A range of text that represents a selection. Although strings in FIDL's wire format are UTF-8 encoded, these indices are measured in UTF-16 code units for legacy reasons. These text input APIs will eventually be replaced by fuchsia.ui.text, which uses code points instead.

Text selection is always directional. Direction should be determined by comparing base and extent.

Name	Type	Description	Default
`base`	`int64`	The offset at which the selection originates, as measured in UTF-16 code units. Might be larger than, smaller than, or equal to extent.	No default
`extent`	`int64`	The offset at which the selection terminates, as measured in UTF-16 code units. When the user uses the arrow keys to adjust the selection, this is the value that changes. Similarly, if the current theme paints a caret on one side of the selection, this is the location at which to paint the caret. Might be larger than, smaller than, or equal to base.	No default
`affinity`	`TextAffinity`	If the text range is collapsed and has more than one visual location (e.g., occurs at a line break), which of the two locations to use when painting the caret.	No default

TextInputState

The current text, selection, and composing state for editing a run of text.

Name	Type	Description	Default
`revision`	`uint32`	Current state revision to avoid race conditions.	No default
`text`	`string`	The current text being edited.	No default
`selection`	`TextSelection`	The range of text that is currently selected.	No default
`composing`	`TextRange`	The range of text that is still being composed.	No default

TextAffinity

Type: uint32

Defined in fuchsia.ui.input/text_editing.fidl

Whether a TextPosition is visually upstream or downstream of its offset.

For example, when a text position exists at a line break, a single offset has two visual positions, one prior to the line break (at the end of the first line) and one after the line break (at the start of the second line). A text affinity disambiguates between those cases. (Something similar happens with between runs of bidirectional text.)
