Title:
TextField does not receive live change events when spell checking or
suggestions is enabled on the keyboard
Status in Ubuntu UI Toolkit:
Triaged
Status in “ubuntu-ui-toolkit” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
When spell checking or word suggestions are enabled, they prevent text
fields from responding to text changes as they happen. For example,
the search-as-you-type feature of the Unity Dash will only update it's
search after a word is completed (usually adding a space to the end
too).
There is an old upstream bug about this: https://bugreports.qt-
project.org/browse/QTBUG-22298
In it there is reference to a feature added to Qt5 for tracking
tentative, pre-commit strings in input method events:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/6682/
If we can expose this property for Ubuntu.Components.TextField (either
directly of via TextInput upstream) it would allow dynamic search
fields to still allow spell checking and word suggestions. Otherwise
the developer has to disable one to allow the other.
