Allow any character

IBUS_INPUT_PURPOSE_ALPHA

Allow only alphabetic characters

Allow only digits

IBUS_INPUT_PURPOSE_NUMBER

Edited field expects phone number

IBUS_INPUT_PURPOSE_URL

Edited field expects URL

IBUS_INPUT_PURPOSE_EMAIL

Edited field expects email address

IBUS_INPUT_PURPOSE_NAME

Edited field expects the name of a person

Suggest not checking for typos

Suggest word completion

IBUS_INPUT_HINT_LOWERCASE

Suggest to convert all text to lowercase

Suggest to capitalize all text

IBUS_INPUT_HINT_UPPERCASE_WORDS

Suggest to capitalize the first character of each word

IBUS_INPUT_HINT_UPPERCASE_SENTENCES

Suggest to capitalize the first word of each sentence

IBUS_INPUT_HINT_INHIBIT_OSK

Suggest to not show an onscreen keyboard (e.g for a calculator that already has all the keys).
