Skinning HowTo/XUI Text Entry Widgets

From Second Life Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This page describes the XML attributes for the XUI text entry widgets. These are some of the XML elements and parameters used within the floaters, panels, and so forth, that make up the viewer user interface. They are used by the XUI files in the \skins\default\xui folders. You can find attributes for other XUI elements at:

and you can find more general information at Skinning HowTo/Basics

Many XUI elements share the same parameters. Rather than repeatedly describing them, we just list their names here and describe them at Skinning HowTo/Common XUI XML parameters.
