QTextBrowser, add support for custom tags

[qtcos]

Hi,

I am failry new to Qt, recently I needed to add support for extra tags in QTextBrowser, can anybody tell me if this is possible and if so how can it be done, I have looked over the documentation but could not find anything related to this there ... perhaps I am looking in the wrong place.

Help much appreciated.
Thanks
C

You mean like html tags? You'll probably want to take a look at QTextDocument and QAbstractTextDocumentLayout.

Hi,

Yes html is what i am interested in, but i don't want to implement my own set, i want to extend the functionality of QTextDocumentLayoutPrivate which appears to be unavailable. I should probably also mention that I am using the pyhton binding for Qt. Thanks again,

Cheers,
C

You can't access the private classes. But you can subclass the abstract class and simply copy the code you need from the private implementation to your component. Of course translating it to python in your case...
