    \brief Displays a single line of editable plain text.

    TextField is used to accept a line of text input. Input constraints can be
    placed on a TextField item (for example, through a \l validator or \l
    inputMask). Setting \l echoMode to an appropriate value enables
    TextField to be used for a password input field.

    You can create a custom appearance for a TextField by
    assigning a \l {QtQuick.Controls.Styles::TextFieldStyle}{TextFieldStyle}.

        \qmlproperty enumeration TextField::horizontalAlignment

        Sets the alignment of the text within the TextField item's width.

        By default, the horizontal text alignment follows the natural alignment
        of the text, for example text that is read from left to right will be
        aligned to the left.

        mask strings are used by TextField.

        \sa acceptableInput, validator
    */
    property alias inputMask: textInput.inputMask

    /*!
        \qmlproperty enumeration TextField::inputMethodHints

        Provides hints to the input method about the expected content of the
        text field and how it should operate.

        The value is a bit-wise combination of flags, or \c Qt.ImhNone if no
        hints are set.

        The default value is \c Qt.ImhNone.

        Flags that alter behavior are:

        \list
        \li Qt.ImhHiddenText - Characters should be hidden, as is typically used when entering passwords.
                This is automatically set when setting echoMode to \c TextInput.Password.
        \li Qt.ImhSensitiveData - Typed text should not be stored by the active input method
                in any persistent storage like predictive user dictionary.
        \li Qt.ImhNoAutoUppercase - The input method should not try to automatically switch to upper case
                when a sentence ends.
        \li Qt.ImhPreferNumbers - Numbers are preferred (but not required).
        \li Qt.ImhPreferUppercase - Uppercase letters are preferred (but not required).
        \li Qt.ImhPreferLowercase - Lowercase letters are preferred (but not required).
        \li Qt.ImhNoPredictiveText - Do not use predictive text (for example, dictionary lookup) while typing.

        \li Qt.ImhDate - The text editor functions as a date field.
        \li Qt.ImhTime - The text editor functions as a time field.
        \endlist

        Flags that restrict input (exclusive flags) are:

        \list
        \li Qt.ImhDigitsOnly - Only digits are allowed.
        \li Qt.ImhFormattedNumbersOnly - Only number input is allowed. This includes decimal point and minus sign.
        \li Qt.ImhUppercaseOnly - Only uppercase letter input is allowed.
        \li Qt.ImhLowercaseOnly - Only lowercase letter input is allowed.
        \li Qt.ImhDialableCharactersOnly - Only characters suitable for phone dialing are allowed.
        \li Qt.ImhEmailCharactersOnly - Only characters suitable for email addresses are allowed.
        \li Qt.ImhUrlCharactersOnly - Only characters suitable for URLs are allowed.
        \endlist

        Masks:
        \list
        \li Qt.ImhExclusiveInputMask - This mask yields nonzero if any of the exclusive flags are used.
        \endlist
    */
    property alias inputMethodHints: textInput.inputMethodHints

    /*!
        \qmlproperty int TextField::length

        Returns the total number of characters in the TextField item.

        If the TextField has an input mask, the length will include mask
        characters and may differ from the length of the string returned by the
        \l text property.

        This property can be faster than querying the length of the \l text
        property as it doesn't require any copying or conversion of the
        TextField's internal string data.

    /*!
        \qmlproperty bool TextField::readOnly

        Sets whether user input can modify the contents of the TextField. Read-
        only is different from a disabled text field in that the text field will
        appear to be active and text can still be selected and copied.

        If readOnly is set to \c true, then user input will not affect the text.
        Any bindings or attempts to set the text property will still
        work, however.
    */

    /*!
        \qmlproperty string TextField::selectedText

        to use.

        \qmlproperty Validator TextField::validator

        Allows you to set a validator on the TextField. When a validator is set,
        the TextField will only accept input which leaves the text property in
        an intermediate state. The accepted signal will only be sent
        if the text is in an acceptable state when enter is pressed.

        Currently supported validators are \l{QtQuick2::IntValidator},
        \l{QtQuick2::DoubleValidator}, and \l{QtQuick2::RegExpValidator}. An
        example of using validators is shown below, which allows input of
        integers between 11 and 31 into the text input:

        \code
        import QtQuick 2.1
        import QtQuick.Controls 1.1

        TextField {
            validator: IntValidator {bottom: 11; top: 31;}
            focus: true
        }

    */

        This signal is emitted when the Return or Enter key is pressed.
        Note that if there is a \l validator or \l inputMask set on the text
        field, the signal will only be emitted if the input is in an acceptable
        state.
    */
    signal accepted()

    /*!
        \qmlsignal TextField::editingFinished()
        \since 5.2

        This signal is emitted when the Return or Enter key is pressed or
        the text field loses focus. Note that if there is a validator or
        inputMask set on the text field and enter/return is pressed, this
        signal will only be emitted if the input follows
        the inputMask and the validator returns an acceptable state.
