problem in displaying a QString in textEdit

[wagmare]

hi friends,

i have a problem with displaying a QString in a QTextEdit ..
as i tried to display it like Linux booting up GUI ..

Avahi daemon.. [OK]
HAL daemon... [FAILED]

actually i dont know how to add two qstrings one at left end and other at right end in same line ..

i can give space while appending but QTextEdit size is indefinite ...

please help me to solve this problem ..

Thanks in advance ...

A simple, quick and dirty work around would be to use HTML. Otherwise one probably has to deal with the text layout.

Also dirty, but you could use a tab and setTabStopWidth to the width of your textedit. Maybe subclass and do that adjustment in the resizeEvent.

Avahi daemon.. [OK]
HAL daemon... [FAILED]

QString str = "Avahi daemon";
if(str.length() < 20 ) 
   str += " " ; // fill gaps with space
str += [OK];  // or failed...

QString str = "Avahi daemon";
if(str.length() < 20 ) 
   str += " " ; // fill gaps with space
str += [OK];  // or failed...

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Wont above logic work ?

@aamer4yu: You probably meant

while (str.length() < 20)..

while (str.length() < 20)..

Unless you use a monospaced font (like courier) this won't align properly though.
