eo_prefix are set to "efl_text".
Also, "Efl.Text.Format" is shortened to now include the "_format"
prefix.
"Efl.Text.Font" keeps the "_font" prefix, for better readability.
Originally it was its own object.
There are some valid claims that there is no justification for it to
remain an object.
Furthermore, it's apparent that it added little benefit: changes of
each cursors, in practice, triggered a query for all objects of the
same textblock. There wasn't real advantage to have a finer resolution
of controlling the cursors with their own events.
This ports back a lot of code, and changes a lot of other code in the
higher-up widgets, such as Efl.Ui.Text and co.
The usage was replaces from:
efl_canvas_text_cursor_char_next(cur_obj)
to
efl_canvas_text_cursor_char_next(text_obj, cur_obj)
that is, it is an operations on the TEXT OBJECT, rather than on the
(now removed) cursor object.
So, one less efl object to worry about now.
Hopefully, the port went smooth.
Non-editable behavior resembles a label. It doesn't allow changing the
text in any interactive form. The blinking cursor is also hidden.
Selection, however, it allowed.
Among the changes, I added a test which you can run using:
"elementary_test -to "efl ui text label".
This composite object utilizes the Efl.Canvas.Text, Efl.Canvas.Text.Cursor and
Efl.Ui.Interactive API to server as a proper replacement for the Elm Entry
widget.
