QTextEdit slow to insert text

[thomaspu]

That was stupid of me. I was calling qApp->processEvents() everytime text was inserted. I was doing that back when I was stepping through my code and wanted to see the updated text immediately. Removed the call and now it flys ;p

One related question. Is there a way to tell Qt to process GUI events for a specific widget? SO instead of saying qApp->processEvents() I could just do myWidget->processEvents() ??

You can use QCoreApplication::sendPostedEvents() if you want.
