[moh.gup@gmail.com]

Hi,
I want to set maximum limit of input text in QtexEdit.It is done by typing or by patsing only 1000 charcters should allowed.
Please suggest

[tbscope]

When text in text edit changed
    if text length is less than or equal to the maximum length
        do nothing <--- REALLY important! Otherwise you might end in an infinite loop
    else
        Truncate the text to the maximum length <--- this will fire the textChanged signal again!

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

You will be looking at textChanged(), toPlainText(), truncate(), setPlainText() and size() or length()

Your case is very specific.

You could use the plain text to check the length.
Then do something to find where to cut off the text.
Then use the html text and find that place in your html text and cut off the text.
Be carfull to close the tags too
