(Suggestion) Add Real Time to InputText plugin

Post by soyelrafa »

Hello. About InputText plugin, I have the suggestion to add Real Time feature (as optional), to give the option of implement in skins real time searchers for example, like google does when you start writing.

This could be useful for skins that uses databases and have a search engine with this plugin, making possible to make real time searching.

Right now you have to click Enter to search, with this you'll have the results while you're writing, updating on every character write.

I don't know if it is even possible, so I just let here the suggest :D

This is not really possible with the current way InputText is written. We have looked at it in the past, but found it would take a pretty serious re-think and re-design of the whole plugin.
