known subclasses: kiwi.ui.widgets.entry.Entry
The Kiwi Entry widget has many special features that extend the basic gtk entry.
First of all, as every Kiwi Widget, it implements the Proxy protocol. As the users types the entry can interact with the application model automatically. Kiwi Entry also implements interesting UI additions. If the input data does not match the data type of the entry the background nicely fades to a light red color. As the background changes an information icon appears. When the user passes the mouse over the information icon a tooltip is displayed informing the user how to correctly fill the entry. When dealing with date and float data-type the information on how to fill these entries is displayed according to the current locale.Function | __init__ | Undocumented |
