makepad-event-action

What problem does it solve?

This Skill centralizes Makepad event and action handling, enabling widgets to communicate via a clear, consistent flow between child and parent.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Event handling: Manage lifecycle, mouse, touch, keyboard, and window events within Makepad widgets.
• Action system: Define actions, emit them from widgets, and capture them in parents to trigger higher-level behavior.
• Use Case: Build a nested widget tree where a child button emits a Clicked action and a parent updates its state accordingly.

Quick Start

Implement your first widget's handle_event to emit actions with cx.action(...) and use cx.capture_actions to respond to child actions in the parent.
