<!-- $$$QTextLayout-description -->
<div class="descr">
<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The QTextLayout class is used to lay out and render text.</p>
<p>It offers many features expected from a modern text layout engine, including Unicode compliant rendering, line breaking and handling of cursor positioning. It can also produce and render device independent layout, something that is important for WYSIWYG applications.</p>
<p>The class has a rather low level API and unless you intend to implement your own text rendering for some specialized widget, you probably won't need to use it directly.</p>
<p>QTextLayout can be used with both plain and rich text.</p>
<p>QTextLayout can be used to create a sequence of <a href="qtextline.html">QTextLine</a> instances with given widths and can position them independently on the screen. Once the layout is done, these lines can be drawn on a paint device.</p>
<p>The text to be laid out can be provided in the constructor or set with <a href="qtextlayout.html#setText">setText</a>().</p>
<p>The layout can be seen as a sequence of <a href="qtextline.html">QTextLine</a> objects; use <a href="qtextlayout.html#createLine">createLine</a>() to create a <a href="qtextline.html">QTextLine</a> instance, and <a href="qtextlayout.html#lineAt">lineAt</a>() or <a href="qtextlayout.html#lineForTextPosition">lineForTextPosition</a>() to retrieve created lines.</p>
<p>Here is a code snippet that demonstrates the layout phase:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type">int</span> leading <span class="operator">=</span> fontMetrics<span class="operator">.</span>leading();
 <span class="type"><a href="qtglobal.html#qreal-typedef">qreal</a></span> height <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="number">0</span>;
 textLayout<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qtextlayout.html#beginLayout">beginLayout</a>();
 <span class="keyword">while</span> (<span class="number">1</span>) {
     <span class="type"><a href="qtextline.html">QTextLine</a></span> line <span class="operator">=</span> textLayout<span class="operator">.</span>createLine();
     <span class="keyword">if</span> (<span class="operator">!</span>line<span class="operator">.</span>isValid())
         <span class="keyword">break</span>;

     line<span class="operator">.</span>setLineWidth(lineWidth);
     height <span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">=</span> leading;
     line<span class="operator">.</span>setPosition(<span class="type"><a href="qpointf.html">QPointF</a></span>(<span class="number">0</span><span class="operator">,</span> height));
     height <span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">=</span> line<span class="operator">.</span>height();
 }
 textLayout<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qtextlayout.html#endLayout">endLayout</a>();</pre>
<p>The text can then be rendered by calling the layout's <a href="qtextlayout.html#draw">draw</a>() function:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type"><a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a></span> painter(<span class="keyword">this</span>);
 textLayout<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qtextlayout.html#draw">draw</a>(<span class="operator">&amp;</span>painter<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type"><a href="qpoint.html">QPoint</a></span>(<span class="number">0</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="number">0</span>));</pre>
<p>For a given position in the text you can find a valid cursor position with <a href="qtextlayout.html#isValidCursorPosition">isValidCursorPosition</a>(), <a href="qtextlayout.html#nextCursorPosition">nextCursorPosition</a>(), and <a href="qtextlayout.html#previousCursorPosition">previousCursorPosition</a>().</p>
<p>The QTextLayout itself can be positioned with <a href="qtextlayout.html#setPosition">setPosition</a>(); it has a <a href="qtextlayout.html#boundingRect">boundingRect</a>(), and a <a href="qtextlayout.html#minimumWidth">minimumWidth</a>() and a <a href="qtextlayout.html#maximumWidth">maximumWidth</a>().</p>

<p>Returns a new text line to be laid out if there is text to be inserted into the layout; otherwise returns an invalid text line.</p>
<p>The text layout creates a new line object that starts after the last line in the layout, or at the beginning if the layout is empty.

<p>Once <a href="qtextline.html#setLineWidth">QTextLine::setLineWidth</a>() is called, a new line can be created and filled with text. Repeating this process will lay out the whole block of text contained in the <a href="qtextlayout.html">QTextLayout</a>.

<p>A grapheme cluster is a sequence of two or more Unicode characters that form one indivisible entity on the screen.
