This tag creates an area of the canvas that the user can use to
edit text. It is equivalent to the HTML <input
type="text">, <input type="password">,
and textarea tags.
See the documentation for the <text>
tag for a description of the width and height attributes,
and of scrolling.
Single-line input text
With the multiline and
password attributes set to false
(the default), this tag is similar to the HTML <input
type="text"> tag. In this use, long lines of text are
clipped according to the width attribute.
Multi-line input text
With the multiline attribute set to
true, this tag is similar to the HTML
<textarea> tag. In this use, text is wrapped to
the length of the width attribute, and the user
can press Enter to create multiple lines of input.
Passwords
With password set to true, this
tag is similar to the HTML <input type="password">
tag. Input characters are displayed as the asterisk
('*') character.
