custom types and enums in slint rust

[disoreks]

hey,

i was wondering why the types supported by models are limited to f32/i32 and what's the correct thing to do if i'm working with bigger numbers in my data like f64/u64+

and how do i define enums variants that store values in the .slint file?
like:

enum Quantity {
    Single(i32),
    Grouped(i32),
}

thanks :)

I think f64 and u64 would make sense to add as data types in the language.

Support for enums that store values is not implemented yet. It's a bit unfortunate as while it is native to Rust as target language, it's not native in C++ (it's a little awkward requiring wrappers). But it could be done, and it would be nice to have :)

I think this is a valuable feature. This has also been discussed in #1307
