/><h2>Detailed Description</h2><p>The QTextEdit class provides a widget that is used to edit and
display both plain and rich text.</p>
<a id="introduction-and-concepts" name="introduction-and-concepts" />
<h3>Introduction and Concepts</h3>
<p>QTextEdit is an advanced WYSIWYG viewer/editor supporting rich
text formatting using HTML-style tags. It is optimized to handle
large documents and to respond quickly to user input.</p>
<p>QTextEdit works on paragraphs and characters. A paragraph is a
formatted string which is word-wrapped to fit into the width of the
widget. By default when reading plain text, one newline signifies a
paragraph. A document consists of zero or more paragraphs. The
words in the paragraph are aligned in accordance with the
paragraph's alignment. Paragraphs are separated by hard line
breaks. Each character within a paragraph has its own attributes,
for example, font and color.</p>
<p>QTextEdit can display images, lists and tables. If the text is
too large to view within the text edit's viewport, scroll bars will
appear. The text edit can load both plain text and HTML files (a
subset of HTML 3.2 and 4).</p>
<p>If you just need to display a small piece of rich text use
<a href="qlabel.html">QLabel</a>.</p>
<p>The rich text support in Qt is designed to provide a fast,
portable and efficient way to add reasonable online help facilities
to applications, and to provide a basis for rich text editors. If
you find the HTML support insufficient for your needs you may
consider the use of <a href="qtwebkit.html">QtWebKit</a>, which
provides a full-featured web browser widget.</p>
<p>The shape of the mouse cursor on a QTextEdit is <a href="qt.html#CursorShape-enum">Qt.IBeamCursor</a> by default. It can
be changed through the <a href="qabstractscrollarea.html#viewport">viewport</a>()'s cursor
property.</p>
<a id="using-qtextedit-as-a-display-widget" name="using-qtextedit-as-a-display-widget" />
<h3>Using QTextEdit as a Display Widget</h3>
<p>QTextEdit can display a large HTML subset, including tables and
images.</p>
<p>The text is set or replaced using <a href="qtextedit.html#html-prop">setHtml</a>() which deletes any existing
text and replaces it with the text passed in the <a href="qtextedit.html#html-prop">setHtml</a>() call. If you call <a href="qtextedit.html#html-prop">setHtml</a>() with legacy HTML, and then
call <a href="qtextedit.html#html-prop">toHtml</a>(), the text that
is returned may have different markup, but will render the same.
The entire text can be deleted with <a href="qtextedit.html#clear">clear</a>().</p>
<p>Text itself can be inserted using the <a href="qtextcursor.html">QTextCursor</a> class or using the convenience
functions <a href="qtextedit.html#insertHtml">insertHtml</a>(),
<a href="qtextedit.html#insertPlainText">insertPlainText</a>(),
<a href="qtextedit.html#append">append</a>() or <a href="qtextedit.html#paste">paste</a>(). <a href="qtextcursor.html">QTextCursor</a> is also able to insert complex
objects like tables or lists into the document, and it deals with
creating selections and applying changes to selected text.</p>
<p>By default the text edit wraps words at whitespace to fit within
the text edit widget. The <a href="qtextedit.html#lineWrapMode-prop">setLineWrapMode</a>() function
is used to specify the kind of line wrap you want, or <a href="qtextedit.html#LineWrapMode-enum">NoWrap</a> if you don't want any
wrapping. Call <a href="qtextedit.html#lineWrapMode-prop">setLineWrapMode</a>() to set a
fixed pixel width <a href="qtextedit.html#LineWrapMode-enum">FixedPixelWidth</a>, or
character column (e.g. 80 column) <a href="qtextedit.html#LineWrapMode-enum">FixedColumnWidth</a> with the
pixels or columns specified with <a href="qtextedit.html#lineWrapColumnOrWidth-prop">setLineWrapColumnOrWidth</a>().
If you use word wrap to the widget's width <a href="qtextedit.html#LineWrapMode-enum">WidgetWidth</a>, you can specify
whether to break on whitespace or anywhere with <a href="qtextedit.html#wordWrapMode-prop">setWordWrapMode</a>().</p>
<p>The <a href="qtextedit.html#find">find</a>() function can be
used to find and select a given string within the text.</p>
<p>If you want to limit the total number of paragraphs in a
QTextEdit, as for example it is often useful in a log viewer, then
you can use <a href="qtextdocument.html">QTextDocument</a>'s
maximumBlockCount property for that.</p>
<a id="read-only-key-bindings" name="read-only-key-bindings" />
<h4>Read-only Key Bindings</h4>
<p>When QTextEdit is used read-only the key bindings are limited to
navigation, and text may only be selected with the mouse:</p>
<table class="generic">
<thead>
<tr class="qt-style">
<th>Keypresses</th>
<th>Action</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tr class="odd" valign="top">
<td>Up</td>
<td>Moves one line up.</td>
</tr>
<tr class="even" valign="top">
<td>Down</td>
<td>Moves one line down.</td>
</tr>
<tr class="odd" valign="top">
<td>Left</td>
<td>Moves one character to the left.</td>
</tr>
<tr class="even" valign="top">
<td>Right</td>
<td>Moves one character to the right.</td>
</tr>
<tr class="odd" valign="top">
<td>PageUp</td>
<td>Moves one (viewport) page up.</td>
</tr>
<tr class="even" valign="top">
<td>PageDown</td>
<td>Moves one (viewport) page down.</td>
</tr>
<tr class="odd" valign="top">
<td>Home</td>
<td>Moves to the beginning of the text.</td>
</tr>
<tr class="even" valign="top">
<td>End</td>
<td>Moves to the end of the text.</td>
</tr>
<tr class="odd" valign="top">
<td>Alt+Wheel</td>
<td>Scrolls the page horizontally (the Wheel is the mouse
wheel).</td>
</tr>
<tr class="even" valign="top">
<td>Ctrl+Wheel</td>
<td>Zooms the text.</td>
</tr>
<tr class="odd" valign="top">
<td>Ctrl+A</td>
<td>Selects all text.</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>The text edit may be able to provide some meta-information. For
example, the <a href="qtextedit.html#documentTitle-prop">documentTitle</a>() function
will return the text from within HTML <tt><title></tt>
tags.</p>
<a id="using-qtextedit-as-an-editor" name="using-qtextedit-as-an-editor" />
<h3>Using QTextEdit as an Editor</h3>
<p>All the information about using QTextEdit as a display widget
also applies here.</p>
<p>The current char format's attributes are set with <a href="qtextedit.html#setFontItalic">setFontItalic</a>(), <a href="qtextedit.html#setFontWeight">setFontWeight</a>(), <a href="qtextedit.html#setFontUnderline">setFontUnderline</a>(), <a href="qtextedit.html#setFontFamily">setFontFamily</a>(), <a href="qtextedit.html#setFontPointSize">setFontPointSize</a>(), <a href="qtextedit.html#setTextColor">setTextColor</a>() and <a href="qtextedit.html#setCurrentFont">setCurrentFont</a>(). The current
paragraph's alignment is set with <a href="qtextedit.html#setAlignment">setAlignment</a>().</p>
<p>Selection of text is handled by the <a href="qtextcursor.html">QTextCursor</a> class, which provides
functionality for creating selections, retrieving the text contents
or deleting selections. You can retrieve the object that
corresponds with the user-visible cursor using the <a href="qtextedit.html#textCursor">textCursor</a>() method. If you want to
set a selection in QTextEdit just create one on a <a href="qtextcursor.html">QTextCursor</a> object and then make that cursor
the visible cursor using <a href="qtextedit.html#setTextCursor">setTextCursor</a>(). The selection
can be copied to the clipboard with <a href="qtextedit.html#copy">copy</a>(), or cut to the clipboard with
<a href="qtextedit.html#cut">cut</a>(). The entire text can be
selected using <a href="qtextedit.html#selectAll">selectAll</a>().</p>
<p>When the cursor is moved and the underlying formatting
attributes change, the <a href="qtextedit.html#currentCharFormatChanged">currentCharFormatChanged</a>()
signal is emitted to reflect the new attributes at the new cursor
position.</p>
<p>QTextEdit holds a <a href="qtextdocument.html">QTextDocument</a>
object which can be retrieved using the <a href="qtextedit.html#document">document</a>() method. You can also set
your own document object using <a href="qtextedit.html#setDocument">setDocument</a>(). <a href="qtextdocument.html">QTextDocument</a> emits a <a href="qtextedit.html#textChanged">textChanged</a>() signal if the text
changes and it also provides a <a class="compat" href="qtextedit-qt3.html#isModified">isModified</a>()
function which will return true if the text has been modified since
it was either loaded or since the last call to setModified with
false as argument. In addition it provides methods for undo and
redo.</p>
<a id="drag-and-drop" name="drag-and-drop" />
<h4>Drag and Drop</h4>
<p>QTextEdit also supports custom drag and drop behavior. By
default, QTextEdit will insert plain text, HTML and rich text when
the user drops data of these MIME types onto a document.
Reimplement <a href="qtextedit.html#canInsertFromMimeData">canInsertFromMimeData</a>()
and <a href="qtextedit.html#insertFromMimeData">insertFromMimeData</a>() to add
support for additional MIME types.</p>
<p>For example, to allow the user to drag and drop an image onto a
QTextEdit, you could the implement these functions in the following
way:</p>
<pre class="cpp">
<span class="type">bool</span> TextEdit<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qtextedit.html#canInsertFromMimeData">canInsertFromMimeData</a>( <span class="keyword">const</span> <span class="type"><a href="qmimedata.html">QMimeData</a></span> <span class="operator">*</span>source ) <span class="keyword">const</span>
{
<span class="keyword">if</span> (source<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>hasImage())
<span class="keyword">return</span> <span class="keyword">true</span>;
<span class="keyword">else</span>
<span class="keyword">return</span> <span class="type">QTextEdit</span><span class="operator">.</span>canInsertFromMimeData(source);
}
</pre>
<p>We add support for image MIME types by returning true. For all
other MIME types, we use the default implementation.</p>
<pre class="cpp">
<span class="type">void</span> TextEdit<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qtextedit.html#insertFromMimeData">insertFromMimeData</a>( <span class="keyword">const</span> <span class="type"><a href="qmimedata.html">QMimeData</a></span> <span class="operator">*</span>source )
{
<span class="keyword">if</span> (source<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>hasImage())
{
<span class="type"><a href="qimage.html">QImage</a></span> image <span class="operator">=</span> qvariant_cast<span class="operator"><</span><span class="type"><a href="qimage.html">QImage</a></span><span class="operator">></span>(source<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>imageData());
<span class="type"><a href="qtextcursor.html">QTextCursor</a></span> cursor <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="keyword">this</span><span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>textCursor();
<span class="type"><a href="qtextdocument.html">QTextDocument</a></span> <span class="operator">*</span>document <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="keyword">this</span><span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>document();
document<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>addResource(<span class="type"><a href="qtextdocument.html">QTextDocument</a></span><span class="operator">.</span>ImageResource<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type"><a href="qurl.html">QUrl</a></span>(<span class="string">"image"</span>)<span class="operator">,</span> image);
cursor<span class="operator">.</span>insertImage(<span class="string">"image"</span>);
}
}
</pre>
<p>We unpack the image from the <a href="qvariant.html">QVariant</a> held by the MIME source and insert it
into the document as a resource.</p>
