TelamonCommandPalette

A searchable popup list of the app's actions, opened with a shortcut such as Ctrl+K.

Since 1.4.0

TelamonCommandPalette is a search field over a list of the app's actions. Typing filters the actions: every word of the query must appear in the action's text or section, in any case, and names that start with the query come first. Only enabled actions are listed. With an empty query, the actions run most recently come first (kept in memory only). Each row shows the symbol, text, section and shortcut of the action.

It is a Qt Quick Controls Popup: declare it anywhere and call open(). See https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qml-qtquick-controls-popup.html. Actions are TelamonAction items.

Example

TelamonCommandPalette { id: palette }
TelamonAction {
    text: qsTr("Command Palette")
    shortcut: "Ctrl+K"
    onTriggered: palette.open()
}

Keyboard

Up and Down move the highlight.
Return runs the highlighted action and closes the palette.
Escape closes it.

Properties

`actions`	`list<QtObject>`	`TelamonShortcuts.actions` (every TelamonAction of the app), or the actions of `collection`	The actions on offer: anything with `text`, `enabled` and `trigger()`, and optionally `symbol`, `category`, `section` and `shortcut`. Give a list to offer fewer; a list that is not empty wins over the collection.

`placeholderText`	`string`	`qsTr("Type a command")`	Hint in the empty search field.
`query`	`string`	`""`	The text in the search field.
`recentCount`	`int`	`5`	How many recently run actions lead the empty list.
