sizeHint based off visible text

[joshuajcarson]

I've found a solution that works. Here is the code

if (qVariantCanConvert<QString>( index.data() ) ) {
	QString htmlText = qVariantValue<QString>(index.data());
	QTextDocument qtd;
	qtd.setHtml(htmlText);
	qtd.setTextWidth(-1);
	QSize toRet;
	toRet.setWidth( ceil( qtd.idealWidth() ) );
	toRet.setHeight( ceil( qtd.size().height() ) );
	return toRet;
} else {
	return QItemDelegate::sizeHint(option, index);
}

if (qVariantCanConvert<QString>( index.data() ) ) {
	QString htmlText = qVariantValue<QString>(index.data());
	QTextDocument qtd;
	qtd.setHtml(htmlText);
	qtd.setTextWidth(-1);
	QSize toRet;
	toRet.setWidth( ceil( qtd.idealWidth() ) );
	toRet.setHeight( ceil( qtd.size().height() ) );
	return toRet;
} else {
	return QItemDelegate::sizeHint(option, index);
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I'm sure there might be a better way, but this seems to work. The QTextDocument gives back a QSizeF, which means it might round down when it should be rounding up all the time. If someone knows of a better way to do this, I'm all ears.
