# sw-call-dialpad

Context-aware DTMF dialpad — sends tones over the active call when
one exists, otherwise bubbles a `sw-dial` event for the parent to act on
(e.g. as a "start a call to these digits" signal).

```html
<sw-call-dialpad></sw-call-dialpad>
```

Wraps the presentational `<sw-ui-dialpad>` primitive and connects it to
the active call. When `callState.status === 'connected'` (or the
explicit `.call` is connected), each digit press is forwarded to
`call.sendDigits()`. When no call is active, `sw-dial` bubbles up
unchanged so a parent can interpret it as "the user wants to start a
new call to these digits".

Use `show-call-button` to render an inline "Call" button beneath the
keypad, and `allow-text` to permit free-text entry in the display
field — useful for vanity numbers, SIP URIs, or destination addresses.

Input precedence (most specific wins): **`.call` > context**.
