Detailed Description

The QTextLayout class is used to lay out and paint a single paragraph of text.

It offers most 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.

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.

QTextLayout can currently deal with plain text and rich text paragraphs that are part of a QTextDocument.

QTextLayout can be used to create a sequence of QTextLine's 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.

Here's some pseudo code that presents the layout phase:

    int leading = fontMetrics.leading();
    int height = 0;
    qreal widthUsed = 0;
    textLayout.beginLayout();
    while (1) {
        QTextLine line = textLayout.createLine();
        if (!line.isValid())
            break;

        line.setLineWidth(lineWidth);
        height += leading;
        line.setPosition(QPoint(0, height));
        height += line.height();
        widthUsed = qMax(widthUsed, line.naturalTextWidth());
    }
    textLayout.endLayout();

The text can be drawn by calling the layout's draw() function:

    QPainter painter(this);
    textLayout.draw(&painter, QPoint(0, 0));

The text layout's text is set in the constructor or with setText(). The layout can be seen as a sequence of QTextLine objects; use lineAt() or lineForTextPosition() to get a QTextLine, createLine() to create one. For a given position in the text you can find a valid cursor position with isValidCursorPosition(), nextCursorPosition(), and previousCursorPosition(). The layout itself can be positioned with setPosition(); it has a boundingRect(), and a minimumWidth() and a maximumWidth(). A text layout can be drawn on a painter device using draw().

Member Function Documentation

QTextLayout::QTextLayout ()

Constructs an empty text layout.

See also setText().

QTextLayout::QTextLayout ( const QString & text )

Constructs a text layout to lay out the given text.

QTextLayout::QTextLayout ( const QString & text, const QFont & font, QPaintDevice * paintdevice = 0 )

Constructs a text layout to lay out the given text with the specified font.

All the metric and layout calculations will be done in terms of the paint device, paintdevice. If paintdevice is 0 the calculations will be done in screen metrics.

QTextLayout::~QTextLayout ()

Destructs the layout.

QList<FormatRange> QTextLayout::additionalFormats () const

Returns the list of additional formats supported by the text layout.

See also setAdditionalFormats() and clearAdditionalFormats().

void QTextLayout::beginLayout ()

Begins the layout process.

QRectF QTextLayout::boundingRect () const

The smallest rectangle that contains all the lines in the layout.

bool QTextLayout::cacheEnabled () const

Returns true if the complete layout information is cached; otherwise returns false.

See also setCacheEnabled().

void QTextLayout::clearAdditionalFormats ()

Clears the list of additional formats supported by the text layout.

See also additionalFormats() and setAdditionalFormats().

QTextLine QTextLayout::createLine ()

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.

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. The layout maintains an internal cursor, and each line is filled with text from the cursor position onwards when the QTextLine::setLineWidth() function is called.

Once QTextLine::setLineWidth() 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 QTextLayout. If there is no text left to be inserted into the layout, the QTextLine returned will not be valid (isValid() will return false).

void QTextLayout::draw ( QPainter * p, const QPointF & pos, const QVector<FormatRange> & selections = QVector<FormatRange> (), const QRectF & clip = QRectF() ) const

Draws the whole layout on the painter p at the position specified by pos. The rendered layout includes the given selections and is clipped within the rectangle specified by clip.

void QTextLayout::drawCursor ( QPainter * painter, const QPointF & position, int cursorPosition ) const

Draws a text cursor with the current pen at the given position using the painter specified. The corresponding position within the text is specified by cursorPosition.

void QTextLayout::endLayout ()

Ends the layout process.

QFont QTextLayout::font () const

Returns the current font that is used for the layout, or a default font if none is set.

See also setFont().

bool QTextLayout::isValidCursorPosition ( int pos ) const

Returns true if position pos is a valid cursor position.

In a Unicode context some positions in the text are not valid cursor positions, because the position is inside a Unicode surrogate or a grapheme cluster.

A grapheme cluster is a sequence of two or more Unicode characters that form one indivisible entity on the screen. For example the latin character `Ä' can be represented in Unicode by two characters, `A' (0x41), and the combining diaresis (0x308). A text cursor can only validly be positioned before or after these two characters, never between them since that wouldn't make sense. In indic languages every syllable forms a grapheme cluster.

QTextLine QTextLayout::lineAt ( int i ) const

Returns the i-th line of text in this text layout.

See also lineCount() and lineForTextPosition().

int QTextLayout::lineCount () const

Returns the number of lines in this text layout.

See also lineAt().

QTextLine QTextLayout::lineForTextPosition ( int pos ) const

Returns the line that contains the cursor position specified by pos.

See also isValidCursorPosition() and lineAt().

qreal QTextLayout::maximumWidth () const

The maximum width the layout could expand to; this is essentially the width of the entire text.

Warning: This function only returns a valid value after the layout has been done.

See also minimumWidth().

qreal QTextLayout::minimumWidth () const

The minimum width the layout needs. This is the width of the layout's smallest non-breakable substring.

Warning: This function only returns a valid value after the layout has been done.

See also maximumWidth().

int QTextLayout::nextCursorPosition ( int oldPos, CursorMode mode = SkipCharacters ) const

Returns the next valid cursor position after oldPos that respects the given cursor mode.

See also isValidCursorPosition() and previousCursorPosition().

QPointF QTextLayout::position () const

The global position of the layout. This is independent of the bounding rectangle and of the layout process.

See also setPosition().

int QTextLayout::preeditAreaPosition () const

Returns the position of the area in the text layout that will be processed before editing occurs.

QString QTextLayout::preeditAreaText () const

Returns the text that is inserted in the layout before editing occurs.

int QTextLayout::previousCursorPosition ( int oldPos, CursorMode mode = SkipCharacters ) const

Returns the first valid cursor position before oldPos that respects the given cursor mode.

See also isValidCursorPosition() and nextCursorPosition().

void QTextLayout::setAdditionalFormats ( const QList<FormatRange> & formatList )

Sets the additional formats supported by the text layout to formatList.

See also additionalFormats() and clearAdditionalFormats().

void QTextLayout::setCacheEnabled ( bool enable )

Enables caching of the complete layout information if enable is true; otherwise disables layout caching. Usually QTextLayout throws most of the layouting information away after a call to endLayout() to reduce memory consumption. If you however want to draw the layouted text directly afterwards enabling caching might speed up drawing significantly.

See also cacheEnabled().

void QTextLayout::setFont ( const QFont & font )

Sets the layout's font to the given font. The layout is invalidated and must be laid out again.

See also font() and text().

void QTextLayout::setPosition ( const QPointF & p )

Moves the text layout to point p.

See also position().

void QTextLayout::setPreeditArea ( int position, const QString & text )

Sets the position and text of the area in the layout that is processed before editing occurs.

void QTextLayout::setText ( const QString & string )

Sets the layout's text to the given string. The layout is invalidated and must be laid out again.

See also text().

void QTextLayout::setTextOption ( const QTextOption & option )

Sets the text option structure that controls the layout process to the given option.

See also textOption() and QTextOption.

QString QTextLayout::text () const

Returns the layout's text.

See also setText().

QTextOption QTextLayout::textOption () const

Returns the current text option used to control the layout process.

See also setTextOption() and QTextOption.
