Detailed Description
The QGraphicsTextItem class provides a text item that you can add to a QGraphicsScene to display formatted text.
To set the item's text, pass a QString to QGraphicsTextItem's constructor, or call setHtml()/setPlainText().
QGraphicsTextItem uses the text's formatted size and the associated font to provide a reasonable implementation of boundingRect(), shape(), and contains(). You can set the font by calling setFont().
It is possible to make the item editable by setting the Qt::TextEditable flag using setTextInteractionFlags().
See also QGraphicsSimpleTextItem, QGraphicsPathItem, QGraphicsRectItem, QGraphicsEllipseItem, QGraphicsPixmapItem, QGraphicsPolygonItem, QGraphicsLineItem, and The Graphics View Framework.
Property Documentation

- void setTextCursor ( const QTextCursor & cursor )
Member Function Documentation
QGraphicsTextItem::QGraphicsTextItem ( QGraphicsItem * parent = 0, QGraphicsScene * scene = 0 )
Constructs a QGraphicsTextItem. parent and scene are passed to QGraphicsItem's constructor.
QGraphicsTextItem::QGraphicsTextItem ( const QString & text, QGraphicsItem * parent = 0, QGraphicsScene * scene = 0 )
Constructs a QGraphicsTextItem, using text as the default plain text. parent and scene are passed to QGraphicsItem's constructor.
QGraphicsTextItem::~QGraphicsTextItem ()
Destroys the QGraphicsTextItem.
void QGraphicsTextItem::adjustSize ()
Adjusts the text item to a reasonable size.
QColor QGraphicsTextItem::defaultTextColor () const
Returns the default text color that is used to for unformatted text.
See also setDefaultTextColor().
QTextDocument * QGraphicsTextItem::document () const
Returns the item's text document.
See also setDocument().
QFont QGraphicsTextItem::font () const
Returns the item's font, which is used to render the text.
See also setFont().
void QGraphicsTextItem::linkActivated ( const QString & link ) [signal]
This signal is emitted when the user clicks on a link on a text item that enables Qt::LinksAccessibleByMouse or Qt::LinksAccessibleByKeyboard. link is the link that was clicked.
See also setTextInteractionFlags().
void QGraphicsTextItem::linkHovered ( const QString & link ) [signal]
This signal is emitted when the user hovers over a link on a text item that enables Qt::LinksAccessibleByMouse. link is the link that was hovered over.
See also setTextInteractionFlags().
void QGraphicsTextItem::setDefaultTextColor ( const QColor & col )
Sets the color for unformatted text to col.
See also defaultTextColor().
void QGraphicsTextItem::setDocument ( QTextDocument * document )
Sets the text document document on the item.
See also document().
void QGraphicsTextItem::setFont ( const QFont & font )
Sets the font used to render the text item to font.
See also font().
void QGraphicsTextItem::setHtml ( const QString & text )
Sets the item's text to text, assuming that text is HTML formatted.
See also toHtml().
void QGraphicsTextItem::setPlainText ( const QString & text )
Sets the item's text to text.
See also toHtml().
void QGraphicsTextItem::setTextInteractionFlags ( Qt::TextInteractionFlags flags )
Sets the flags flags to specify how the text item should react to user input.
The default for a QGraphicsTextItem is Qt::NoTextInteraction. Setting a value different to Qt::NoTextInteraction will also set the ItemIsFocusable QGraphicsItem flag.
By default, the text is read-only. To transform the item into an editor, set the Qt::TextEditable flag.
See also textInteractionFlags().
void QGraphicsTextItem::setTextWidth ( qreal width )
Sets the preferred width for the item's text. If the actual text is wider than the specified width then it will be broken into multiple lines.
If width is set to -1 then the text will not be broken into multiple lines unless it is enforced through an explicit line break or a new paragraph.
The default value is -1.
See also textWidth().
Qt::TextInteractionFlags QGraphicsTextItem::textInteractionFlags () const
Returns the current text interaction flags.
See also setTextInteractionFlags().
qreal QGraphicsTextItem::textWidth () const
Returns the text width.
See also setTextWidth().
QString QGraphicsTextItem::toHtml () const
Returns the item's text converted to HTML, or an empty QString if no text has been set.
See also setHtml().
QString QGraphicsTextItem::toPlainText () const
Returns the item's text converted to plain text, or an empty QString if no text has been set.
See also setPlainText().
