IInputConnection.RequestTextBoundsInfo(RectF, IExecutor, IConsumer) Method

Definition

Called by input method to request the TextBoundsInfo for a range of text which is covered by or in vicinity of the given bounds.

[Android.Runtime.Register("requestTextBoundsInfo", "(Landroid/graphics/RectF;Ljava/util/concurrent/Executor;Ljava/util/function/Consumer;)V", "GetRequestTextBoundsInfo_Landroid_graphics_RectF_Ljava_util_concurrent_Executor_Ljava_util_function_Consumer_Handler:Android.Views.InputMethods.IInputConnection, Mono.Android, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null", ApiSince=34)]
public virtual void RequestTextBoundsInfo (Android.Graphics.RectF bounds, Java.Util.Concurrent.IExecutor executor, Java.Util.Functions.IConsumer consumer);

abstract member RequestTextBoundsInfo : Android.Graphics.RectF * Java.Util.Concurrent.IExecutor * Java.Util.Functions.IConsumer -> unit
override this.RequestTextBoundsInfo : Android.Graphics.RectF * Java.Util.Concurrent.IExecutor * Java.Util.Functions.IConsumer -> unit

Parameters

bounds
RectF

the interested area where the text bounds are requested, in the screen coordinates.

executor
IExecutor

the executor to run the callback.

consumer
IConsumer

the callback invoked by editor to return the result. It must return a non-null object.

Attributes

Remarks

Called by input method to request the TextBoundsInfo for a range of text which is covered by or in vicinity of the given bounds. It can be used as a supplementary method to implement the handwriting gesture API - #performHandwritingGesture(HandwritingGesture, Executor, IntConsumer).

<strong>Editor authors</strong>: It's preferred that the editor returns a TextBoundsInfo of all the text lines whose bounds intersect with the given bounds.

<strong>IME authors</strong>: This method is expensive when the text is long. Please consider that both the text bounds computation and IPC round-trip to send the data are time consuming. It's preferable to only request text bounds in smaller areas.
