@bogdanbiv@mastodon.social Yes, most toolkits provide a way for an app to specify what a textfield should support (e.g. digits only, email characters, etc). Qt for example: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qml-qtquick-textinput.html#inputMethodHints-prop

@Merritt@mastodon.social Sorry for being unclear - is there a way for a QT app to expose to plasma-keyboard that the input mask is in X-Y range/ pattern/ charset. From QT6 docs it's unclear if that field description is available to [virtual] plasma-keyboard. I hope this makes more sense. Also, discord and mastodon, other web-based social networks allow for emoji input. Emoji input should be available to all desktop apps as well, text editor, konsole. I'll get out of your ears/ hair and go bugging someone else.
