pure virtual

Get the character used for the cursor.

◆ getMax()

virtual u32 irr::gui::IGUIEditBox::getMax ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns maximum amount of characters, previously set by setMax();.

◆ getOverrideColor()

virtual video::SColor irr::gui::IGUIEditBox::getOverrideColor ( ) const

pure virtual

Gets the override color.

◆ getOverrideFont()

virtual IGUIFont* irr::gui::IGUIEditBox::getOverrideFont ( ) const

pure virtual

Gets the override font (if any)

Returns: The override font (may be 0)

◆ getTextDimension()

virtual core::dimension2du irr::gui::IGUIEditBox::getTextDimension ( )

pure virtual

Gets the size area of the text in the edit box.

Returns: The size in pixels of the text

◆ isAutoScrollEnabled()

Returns: true if background drawing is enabled, false otherwise

◆ isDrawBorderEnabled()

virtual bool irr::gui::IGUIEditBox::isDrawBorderEnabled ( ) const

pure virtual

Checks if border drawing is enabled.

Returns: true if border drawing is enabled, false otherwise

◆ isMultiLineEnabled()

virtual bool irr::gui::IGUIEditBox::isMultiLineEnabled ( ) const

pure virtual

Checks if multi line editing is enabled.

Returns: true if multi-line is enabled, false otherwise

◆ isOverrideColorEnabled()

virtual bool irr::gui::IGUIEditBox::isOverrideColorEnabled ( void ) const
