Text Input

This node places a text input field in the visual tree. The input can be used to capture information from a user.

The captured value can easily be connected to other nodes in a project.

Inputs

Data	Description
Text	The text string of the Text Input node. Setting this will change the current text, unless Set is connected, then it will be updated when Set receives a signal.
Type	The type of the Text Input. Text: A single line text input (default). Text Area: A multi line text input. Email: A single line email text input. Number: A single line number input. Password: A single line password input, will mask password by default.
Placeholder	The placeholder text for when the Text Input is empty.
Placeholder Opacity	The opacity of the placeholder text. 0 is completely transparent and invisible. 1 is completely solid and opaque.
Text Alignment	The alignment of the text string within the Text Input node's bounding box.

Signal	Description
Set	Sets the text field value to the text in the Text input.
Clear	Clears the text.
Focus	Focuses the text field. Note: Some browsers, most notably Safari, only allow focus if it originates from a user event, like a click. So using a Delay node or other method might not work.
