Extracting text from QTableWidgetItem

[bizmopeen]

Hello, all;

I’d appreciate some assistance in being able to extract text from a QTableWidgetItem. I’ve tried using the .text() command, but I have problems getting the text and passing it along no matter how I declare the object that I use to hold it. The object I seem to be having problems with is “displayText” below: I’ve tried declaring it as a pointer and a non-pointer, and the only way I can get this code to compile is by writing it this way (right now I’m using dummy text to try to get the program to work):

QTableWidget *listWidget = new QTableWidget(2,2,this);
QTableWidgetItem *newItem1 = new QTableWidgetItem(tr("Display Text 1"));
listWidget->setItem(0, 0, newItem1);
listWidget->hide();
 
QString displayText;
 
displayText = (*newItem1).text();
 
QLineEdit *textDisplay = new QLineEdit();
textDisplay->setStyleSheet(swQuad2_stylesheet);
textDisplay->setText(displayText);
textDisplay->setReadOnly(true);
 
QVBoxLayout *SWLayout = new QVBoxLayout; 
SWLayout->addStretch(1);
SWLayout->addWidget(textDisplay);
SWLayout->addStretch(1);

QTableWidget *listWidget = new QTableWidget(2,2,this);
QTableWidgetItem *newItem1 = new QTableWidgetItem(tr("Display Text 1"));
listWidget->setItem(0, 0, newItem1);
listWidget->hide();

QString displayText;
    
displayText = (*newItem1).text();
    
QLineEdit *textDisplay = new QLineEdit();
textDisplay->setStyleSheet(swQuad2_stylesheet);
textDisplay->setText(displayText);
textDisplay->setReadOnly(true);

QVBoxLayout *SWLayout = new QVBoxLayout; 
SWLayout->addStretch(1);
SWLayout->addWidget(textDisplay);
SWLayout->addStretch(1);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

However, even though the code does compile, I get the following errors when I run it:

Could not parse application stylesheet
Segmentation fault

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
