TextInput

TextInput controls accept text input from the user when the control is focused. The text can be selected by mouse or keyboard. By default, this control is set to be a single line input but can be set to allow multi-line editing. The control can be scrolled if the contents do not fit within the visible bounds. In single-line input mode, no scroll bars are displayed while they are visible in multi-line input mode.
