KitOtpField

One-time code field that retains one native editor.

One-time code field that retains one native editor.
Native screenshot of the same example, rendered with Skia.

Bind the draft and use the core OtpLength and OtpAlphabet parsers to validate the complete code. Choose a label describing the expected code.

Character spacing and centering are visual; they do not create a box per character. Paste, selection and undo remain native editor behavior.

Complete example

This complete Slint file is a visual composition used to produce the screenshot above. Internal strings without a label property retain the kit’s default language; system dialogs follow the host platform. Projected state and callbacks requesting a decision need host wiring; the standalone fixture does not supply that controller. Set up the Rust project, then see the typed controller application for working editing, validation and selection.
