Hi, The idea for this came from ListView. In a ListView you can define a "add: Transition" and "delete: Transition" (among others).
With a TextInput the text itself is quite "static" as in there isn't much to animate there or play with. It's just adding text (typing) or removing text (backspace/delete) and that's it. The thing i'd like to do in QML is have some animations when text is added or deleted. The kind of animation i think of are: for deleting: the deleted text drops out of the TextInput with some animation or shader fun. for adding: the added text smoothly fades+slides in The animation part should obviously be left to the app creator. If the Qt devs could provide transition capabilities just like ListView has then it's perfect for me. So, would it be possible to implement this in QtQuick 2.1 (or whatever the next version is going to be)? Right now this can already be done though in a very crude manner. By making a own "TextInput" that uses a ListView, a ListModel and a bunch of small Text elements. But that will obviously bring in a range of difficulties that are already handles in ThextInput just fine.
