I need a QTextEdit that will feed my QSyntaxHilighter multiline blocks! I’ve narrowed down my search in to the QAbstractTextDocumentLayout but I can’t really nail it. The documentation states:
A text block encapsulates a block or paragraph of text in a
[...].QTextDocument.
Regardless of that, I can’t find anything to set or override so I can get the required behavior. Can somebody point me to the right direction please? I’m oozing my brain out of my ears here!
Thanks.
the solution i found was to subclass the
QtGui.QTextCursorstate the patterns for the regular expressions i needed as in theQSyntaxHighlighterand usesetCharFormat()on my selections.. (while blocking the signals).
