TelamonChip

A small label for a tag, a filter or a value; plain, checkable or closable.

Since 1.4.0

TelamonChip is plain (just text), checkable, or closable, or a mix. A checkable chip is a filter: the checked chip has the selection fill, an accent border and a check mark instead of its symbol, and is fully round, while an unchecked one has 8 px corners. A plain (not checkable) chip is always fully round. A closable chip has an x button; the app removes the chip when closeRequested() fires. Put chips that belong together in a TelamonChipGroup.

TelamonChip is a Qt Quick Templates AbstractButton; its inherited properties (text, checkable, checked, toggled) work as usual. See https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qml-qtquick-controls-abstractbutton.html.

Example

TelamonChip { text: qsTr("Unread"); checkable: true; onToggled: app.filterUnread = checked }
TelamonChip { text: tag; closable: true; onCloseRequested: tags.remove(index) }

Keyboard

A chip is a Tab stop (inside a TelamonChipGroup only one chip is). On a closable chip with focus, Delete or Backspace emits closeRequested().

Accessibility

The accessible name is the text. The close button's is "Remove" followed by the text.

Properties

`closable`	`bool`	`false`	Shows an x button; it, or Delete/Backspace, emits `closeRequested()`.
`showsCheck`	`bool` (read-only)	—	`true` when the chip is checkable and checked, so it shows a check mark.
