Event handler parameters

Remarks

An IME candidate window may be identified as needing to change size for any of the following reasons:

  • As a result of displaying new / changed alternatives or predictions
  • Due to user-zoom, browser frame resize, or another action that changes the candidate window placement

Web applications need only register for this event once per element (the handler will remain valid for the lifetime of the element).
