Why painter->setPen() doesn't work with QTextDocument?

If I have this code:

Code:

---

...
QPainter *painter = new QPainter(this);
painter->setPen(Qt::white);
QAbstractTextDocumentLayout::PaintContext context;
QTextDocument doc;
doc.setTextWidth(220);
doc.setHtml(text);
doc.documentLayout()->draw(painter, context);

---

the text is drawn in black instead of white? Only if i write:

Code:

---

doc.setHtml("<font color=\"white\">" + text + "</font>");

---

it works.

QTextFormat and its descendants are resonsible for text formatting in QTextDocument, not the painter.

Ok, understood.

Thanks

Of course it's the QTextFormat what is responsible for formatting, not QTextDocument. I don't know why I wrote QTextDocument. :confused:
