How to set the PlaceHolderText for a TextEdit?
Can anyone Please suggest me how to set the PlaceHolderText for a QTextEdit.
QLineEdit has a Property setPlaceHolderText, But why the QTextEdit didn’t have that?
If i want to set a PlaceHolderText for TextEdit, How can i set this?
Thanks & Regards,,,,

qtextedit doesn't have a placeholder member. You will have to do it manually/
If you have a problem, CUT and PASTE your code. Do not retype or simplify it. Give a COMPLETE and COMPILABLE example of your problem. Otherwise we are all guessing the problem from a fabrication where relevant details are often missing.

Yeah i know that. But how to do that? Whether i have to use the focusInEvent for that?

yes, you will have to use focus events because that affects the behaviour of placeholder in LineEdit

I don't think using focus events is required. It should be enough to reimplement the paint event and there check if the widget has focus to decide what to draw.
Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile.
