class ImeOptions(
    val singleLine: Boolean = false,
    val capitalization: KeyboardCapitalization = KeyboardCapitalization.None,
    val autoCorrect: Boolean = true,
    val keyboardType: KeyboardType = KeyboardType.Text,
    val imeAction: ImeAction = ImeAction.Default,
    val platformImeOptions: PlatformImeOptions? = null,
    val hintLocales: LocaleList = LocaleList.Empty,
)

The IME configuration options for TextInputService. It is not guaranteed if IME will comply with the options provided here.

Parameters

singleLineinforms the IME that the text field is single line and IME should not show return key.
capitalizationinforms the IME whether to automatically capitalize characters, words or sentences. Only applicable to only text based KeyboardTypes such as KeyboardType.Text, KeyboardType.Ascii. It will not be applied to KeyboardTypes such as KeyboardType.Number or KeyboardType.Decimal.
autoCorrectinforms the IME whether to enable auto correct. Only applicable to text based KeyboardTypes such as KeyboardType.Email, KeyboardType.Uri. It will not be applied to KeyboardTypes such as KeyboardType.Number or KeyboardType.Decimal. Most of IME implementations ignore this value for KeyboardTypes such as KeyboardType.Text.
keyboardTypeThe keyboard type to be used in this text field. Note that this input type is honored by IME and shows corresponding keyboard but this is not guaranteed. For example, some IME may send non-ASCII character even if you set KeyboardType.Ascii.
imeActionThe IME action. This IME action is honored by IME and may show specific icons on the keyboard. For example, search icon may be shown if ImeAction.Search is specified. When singleLine is false, the IME might show return key rather than the action requested here.
platformImeOptionsdefines the platform specific IME options.
hintLocalesList of the languages that the user is supposed to switch to no matter what input method subtype is currently used. This special "hint" can be used mainly for, but not limited to, multilingual users who want IMEs to switch language based on editor's context. Pass LocaleList.Empty to express the intention that a specific hint should not be set.
