How to remove a text block from QTextEdit (Qt4)
Message 1 in thread
Hi,
The subject says it all. I would like to remove e.g. the first text
block in my QTextEdit widget. Any hint where to look?

You could select it with your QTextCursor and use "
QTextCursor::removeSelectedText ()" to remove the block.

Not quite, I tried this:
QTextDocument * doc = document();
QTextCursor cursor(doc->begin());
cursor.select(QTextCursor::BlockUnderCursor);
qDebug() << cursor.hasSelection() << cursor.selectedText();
cursor.removeSelectedText();
This will remove the text of the first block, but not the block itself.
Thus a second call will work on the empty block again.
