Cant set QTextEdit to setEnable(false)

Message 1 in thread

I am having a problem with QT4.3.0 setEnabled(false) with QTextEdit.
The snippet of code is of a class constructor showing the problem.
Everything compiles AOK. When it runs 'labComment' is greyed out (as
expected), but the text in QTextEdit is never greyed out - I have
tried everything  I can think of but I cannot disable this widget.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong ?

Cheers

Dave


  // comment
  labComment = new QLabel(i18n("Co&mment:"), page);
  labComment->setObjectName("labComment");
  layout->addWidget(labComment, 3, 0, Qt::AlignLeft | Qt::AlignTop);

  teComment = new QTextEdit(page);
  layout->addWidget(teComment, 3, 1, 1, 2);
  labComment->setBuddy(teComment);

  // set starting field values
  cmbVariable->setEditText(QString::fromLocal8Bit(ctvar->variable.c_str()));
  leValue->setText(QString::fromLocal8Bit(ctvar->value.c_str()));
  teComment->setPlainText(QString::fromLocal8Bit(ctvar->comment.c_str()));
  chkEnabled->setChecked(ctvar->enabled);
  cmbVariable->setFocus();

  labComment->setEnabled(false);
  teComment->setEnabled(false);

Having discussed it on IRC discoverd that its a style issue, the
true/false flag allows/inhibits editing but the style means they look
the same !
