TelamonComboBox

A drop-down list with the current choice in a field and the choices in a raised card, optionally filterable.

TelamonComboBox shows the current choice in a field with a chevron, and the choices in a raised card like ContextMenu's. model, textRole, currentIndex and activated work as in any Qt Quick Controls ComboBox; see https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qml-qtquick-controls-combobox.html. With filterable: true, the list opens with a filter field on top, which suits long lists.

Example

TelamonComboBox {
    model: [qsTr("Light"), qsTr("Dark"), qsTr("Automatic")]
    currentIndex: 2
    onActivated: index => settings.theme = index
}

Keyboard

In a filterable list, typing narrows the choices (any part of the text, in any case), Up and Down move among the ones left, and Return chooses. The filter clears when the list closes.

Properties

Name Type Default Description
filterable bool false Opens the list with a filter field at the top.
placeholderText string "" Shown while nothing is chosen (currentIndex is -1).

Note

A user edit keeps your binding. currentIndex: model.x stays bound: if your handler takes the edit it follows the model, and if it ignores it the value springs back after the handler. With a plain value or no binding the edit stays. activated() and on<Property>Changed see the edit at once, as before.
