Deleting a QTextFrame in a QTextDocument

[enno]

I can successfully insert blocks and frames in a QTextDocument. I see no way to delete any of those frames and/or blocks.

QTextEdit::cut() deletes selected text from a QTextEdit. (doesn't seem to work for me either) but according to the documentation, not from the document (?).

Can I delete a frame and any containing blocks from a document. If so, how?

Appreciate any help,
Enno

Calling delete on the QTextFrame pointer will destroy the frame and remove it from the QTextDocument it belongs to. You can get the currentFrame() from a suitably positioned QTextCursor (this may be the rootFrame()). AFAICT, QTextBlocks will be removed automatically when you remove the frame containing them or QTextCursor::removeSelectedText().
