Props

Behavior

• Slides in when searchModeEnabled turns true and focuses its GtkSearchEntry; hiding it clears the entry.
• Escape in the entry and the close button hide it (onSearchModeChanged(false)). Without searchModeEnabled the bar keeps its own state.
• With keyCaptureRef, typing a printable key elsewhere in that element reveals the bar and types the key into the entry.
