Pinyin IME provides API to provide Chinese Pinyin input method (Chinese input) for keyboard object, which supports 26 key and 9 key input modes. You can think of lv_ime_pinyin
as a Pinyin input method plug-in for keyboard objects.
Normally, an environment where lv_keyboard
can run can also run lv_ime_pinyin
. There are two main influencing factors: the size of the font file and the size of the dictionary.
Enable :cLV_USE_IME_PINYIN
in lv_conf.h
.
First use :cpplv_ime_pinyin_create(lv_screen_active())
to create a Pinyin input method plug-in, then use :cpplv_ime_pinyin_set_keyboard(pinyin_ime, kb)
to add the keyboard
you created to the Pinyin input method plug-in. You can use :cpplv_ime_pinyin_set_dict(pinyin_ime, your_dict)
to use a custom dictionary (if you don't want to use the built-in dictionary at first, you can disable :cLV_IME_PINYIN_USE_DEFAULT_DICT
in lv_conf.h
, which can save a lot of memory space).
The built-in thesaurus is customized based on the LV_FONT_SIMSUN_16_CJK font library, which currently only has more than 1,000
most common CJK radicals, so it is recommended to use custom fonts and thesaurus.
In the process of using the Pinyin input method plug-in, you can change the keyboard and dictionary at any time.
If you don't want to use the built-in Pinyin dictionary, you can use the custom dictionary. Or if you think that the built-in phonetic dictionary consumes a lot of memory, you can also use a custom dictionary.
Customizing the dictionary is very simple.
First, set :cLV_IME_PINYIN_USE_DEFAULT_DICT
to 0
in lv_conf.h
Then, write a dictionary in the following format.
The arrangement order of each pinyin syllable is very important. You need to customize your own thesaurus according to the Hanyu Pinyin syllable table. You can read here to learn about the Hanyu Pinyin syllables and the syllable table.
Then, write your own dictionary according to the following format:
lv_100ask_pinyin_dict_t your_pinyin_dict[] = {
{ "a", "啊阿呵吖" },
{ "ai", "埃挨哎唉哀皑蔼矮碍爱隘癌艾" },
{ "an", "按安暗岸俺案鞍氨胺厂广庵揞犴铵桉谙鹌埯黯" },
{ "ang", "昂肮盎仰" },
{ "ao", "凹敖熬翱袄傲奥懊澳" },
{ "ba", "芭捌叭吧笆八疤巴拔跋靶把坝霸罢爸扒耙" },
{ "bai", "白摆佰败拜柏百稗伯" },
/* ...... */
{ "zuo", "昨左佐做作坐座撮琢柞"},
{NULL, NULL}
The last item must end with {null, null}
, or it will not work properly.
After writing a dictionary according to the above dictionary format, you only need to call this function to set up and use your dictionary:
lv_obj_t * pinyin_ime = lv_100ask_pinyin_ime_create(lv_screen_active());
lv_100ask_pinyin_ime_set_dict(pinyin_ime, your_pinyin_dict);
The lv_ime_pinyin have the following modes:
- :cpp
LV_IME_PINYIN_MODE_K26
: Pinyin 26 key input mode - :cpp
LV_IME_PINYIN_MODE_K9
: Pinyin 9 key input mode - :cpp
LV_IME_PINYIN_MODE_K9_NUMBER
: Numeric keypad mode
The TEXT
modes' layout contains buttons to change mode.
To set the mode manually, use :cpplv_ime_pinyin_set_mode(pinyin_ime, mode)
. The default mode is :cppLV_IME_PINYIN_MODE_K26
.
