Cannot assign to non-existent property "onTextEdited" TextField QML?

filipdns

Hello,

with QT 5.14 on windows 64, following documentation saying:

**textEdited()

This signal is emitted whenever the text is edited. Unlike textChanged(), this signal is not emitted when the text is changed programmatically, for example, by changing the value of the text property or by calling clear().

The corresponding handler is onTextEdited.

This signal was introduced in Qt 5.9.
**

I received message Cannot assign to non-existent property "onTextEdited" using code:

import QtQuick 2.14

TextField {
            id: searchInput
            width:500
            placeholderText:"Part Number, serial number, description"
            font.pixelSize: 20
            anchors.top:parent.top
            anchors.left:parent.left
            anchors.margins:10
            activeFocusOnPress: true
            activeFocusOnTab: true
            focus: true
            selectByMouse: true
            onTextEdited: console.log(searchInput.text)
        }

I don't understand why, could you help me please?

Thanks a lot

@filipdns Do you use https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtquick-controls2-textfield.html or https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtquick-controls-textfield.html ?

@jsulm Hi,

I solve this with:

FocusScope
{ id: searchInput
    width: 500;
    height: 28
    signal textEditedSignal(string msg)
    TextInput {
        id: textInput
        anchors.fill:parent
        font.pixelSize: globalScaleFactor* 20
        selectByMouse: true
        onTextEdited: { searchInput.textEditedSignal(textInput.text); console.log( textInput.text)}
    }
}

@filipdns
Cool.

TextField { } and TextInput { } are different components, ( Links provided by @jsulm above )

TextField { } is part of Qt Quick Controls & hence its not available with import QtQuick 2.14 .

All the best.

@Pradeep-P-N said in Cannot assign to non-existent property "onTextEdited" TextField QML?:

TextField { } and TextInput { } are completely different components

TextField is actually a TextInput
