Description Quim Gil (reporter) 2011-09-06 02:30:42 UTC

SOFTWARE VERSION: 
master

As reported by mikhas at https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12337#c17

1. When entering username, enter key on virtual keyboard should bring you to
password field,
2. when entering password, enter key on virtual keyboard should log you in.
3. After sending user credentials, UI should grey out login prompt until FICS
response arrives (otherwise no visual feedback if login takes a bit longer,
say, due to crappy internet connection).

I can't find an evident way to do this today, so leaving it for tomorrow - or
for someone else if s/he is faster than me.  :)

We are using the com.nokia.meego specific TextField since it has a nice
placeholder text property, but apparently it can't emit an onAccepted signal
that could be used to direct the focus to the next element.

TextInput (part of the official QML elements) does have this onAccepted signal
but no placeholder text property...

We have more important things to put our attention before the 0.4 release,
hence marking this as Low as of today.

Try http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qml-keys.html#example-usage to filter enter
key events.

Please verify.

Works, though to make it complete we should now also add the action key
support: When in username entry, enter key (action key) should be labelled
"Next", when on password entry (and username is not empty), action key should
read "Login".
