behavior of QTextEdit
Message 1 in thread
Hi all, i'm here because i've broken my mind alredy :))
Preface.
I want to produce a kind of text terminal emulator to comunicate with my
server system.
So i decide to use the QTextEdit (actually, derivative of QTextEdit) for
input/output
field.
Some problems i met:
1. i actuallly do _not_ want scroll my text content and want have "cycle
text area"
instead. I easy won over the horisontal scrollbar with
setLineWrapMode() and
setLineWrapColumnOrWidth(). But what to do wiht vertical scrolling?
Searching
through the web i saw many questions and answers about this subject but
noone
wants to deny such scrolling :)
2. using QTextEdit, can i set its properties so it can accept only 2000
(80x25)
symbols and no one more? I think this is tied with previous clause and
maybe
QTextEdit is a wrong selection for my purposes?
Thanks for attention and excuse my basic english.
