### 4.4 Entry

The entry widget is a simple text input field, which can be used to get a string from the user.

#### 4.4.1 `<default></default>`

The `<default>string</default>` directive sets the default content of the entry.

#### 4.4.2 `<visible></visible>`

The `<visible>visibility</visible>` sets the initial state of the entry widget. The visibility can be `enabled`, which means the entry can be used, `disabled`, which means the content of the entry can not be altered or `password`.

The entry widgets with the visibility set to `password` are editable, but unreadable as it is common with entries holding password style information.

#### 4.4.3 `<action></action>`

The entry widgets are activating actions after their contents are changed.
