TextArea QML Type▲
-
Import Statement: import QtQuick.Controls
-
Inherits: TextEdit
-
Group: TextArea is part of qtquickcontrols-input
Detailed Description▲
https:// is a multi-line text editor. https:// extends https:// with a https:// functionality, and adds decoration.
TextArea {
placeholderText: qsTr("Enter description")
}https:// is not scrollable by itself. Especially on screen-size constrained platforms, it is often preferable to make entire application pages scrollable. On such a scrollable page, a non-scrollable https:// might behave better than nested scrollable controls. Notice, however, that in such a scenario, the background decoration of the https:// scrolls together with the rest of the scrollable content.
Scrollable TextArea▲
If you want to make a https:// scrollable, for example, when it covers an entire application page, it can be placed inside a https://.
ScrollView {
id: view
anchors.fill: parent
TextArea {
text: "TextArea\n...\n...\n...\n...\n...\n...\n"
}
}A https:// that is placed inside a https:// does the following:
-
Sets the content size automatically
-
Ensures that the background decoration stays in place
-
Clips the content
Tab Focus▲
By default, pressing the tab key while https:// has https:// results in a tab character being input into the control itself. To make tab pass active focus onto another item, use the attached https:// properties:
TextField {
id: textField
}
TextArea {
KeyNavigation.priority: KeyNavigation.BeforeItem
KeyNavigation.tab: textField

Property Documentation▲
background : Item▲
This property holds the background item.
If the background item has no explicit size specified, it automatically follows the control's size. In most cases, there is no need to specify width or height for a background item.
Most controls use the implicit size of the background item to calculate the implicit size of the control itself. If you replace the background item with a custom one, you should also consider providing a sensible implicit size for it (unless it is an item like https:// which has its own implicit size).
