Hi there,

I'm having some trouble with QTextDocument, QTextCursor,...

I'm trying to generate a QTextDocument using data from a database. So far it easy but it becomes harder when I try to use tab stops (maybe it's not the right name) to achieve something like this : www.ixamaxi.be/images/problem4.png

Qt Code: 
  1. QTextDocument * TextDocument = new QTextDocument;
  2. 	TextDocument->setTextWidth(200.0);
  3. 	TextDocument->setPageSize(QSize(200, 200));
  4.  
  5. 	QSqlQuery Query = GetSql()->Query();
  6.  
  7. 	QString QueryString;
  8.  
  9. 	QueryString += "SELECT books.book_author, books.book_title, books.book_price ";
  10. 	QueryString += "FROM catalog_book_list ";
  11. 	QueryString += "LEFT JOIN books ON books.book_id = catalog_book_list.book_id ";
  12. 	QueryString += "WHERE catalog_book_list.catalog_id = 1 ";
  13. 	QueryString += "ORDER BY catalog_book_list.cat_book_id ASC";
  14.  
  15. 	Query.exec(QueryString);
  16.  
  17. 	QTextCursor TextCursor(TextDocument->rootFrame());
  18.  
  19. 	QTextList * TextList = TextCursor.insertList(QTextListFormat::ListDecimal);
  20.  
  21. 	QTextBlock TextBlock = TextList->item(0);
  22.  
  23. 	TextCursor = QTextCursor(TextBlock);
  24.  
  25. 	QTextCharFormat Default;
  26. 	Default.setProperty(QTextFormat::CssFloat, "right");
  27.  
  29. 	Author.setFontWeight(QFont::Bold);
  30.  
  32. 	Title.setFontUnderline(true);
  33.  
  34. 	QTextBlockFormat BlockFormat = TextBlock.blockFormat();
  35.  
  36. 	QTextOption TextOption = TextDocument->defaultTextOption();
  37. 	TextOption.setFlags(QTextOption::ShowLineAndParagraphSeparators | QTextOption::ShowTabsAndSpaces);
  38.  
  39. 	TextOption.setWrapMode(QTextOption::WrapAtWordBoundaryOrAnywhere);
  40.  
  41. 	QList<QTextOption::Tab> List;
  42.  
  43. 	QTextOption::Tab Tab = QTextOption::Tab();
  44. 	Tab.type = QTextOption::DelimiterTab;
  45. 	Tab.delimiter = QChar::ParagraphSeparator;
  46. 	List.append(Tab);
  47.  
  48. 	TextDocument->setDefaultTextOption(TextOption);
  49.  
  50. 	while(Query.next()) {
  51. 		TextCursor.setBlockFormat(BlockFormat);
  52. 		QTextFrame * mainFrame = TextCursor.currentFrame();
  53.  
  54. 		TextCursor.setCharFormat(Default);
  55. 		TextCursor.insertText(" ");
  56.  
  57. 		TextCursor.setCharFormat(Author);
  58. 		TextCursor.insertText(Query.value(0).toString());
  59.  
  60. 		TextCursor.setCharFormat(Default);
  61. 		TextCursor.insertText(" ");
  62.  
  63. 		TextCursor.setCharFormat(Title);
  64. 		TextCursor.insertText(Query.value(1).toString());
  65.  
  66. 		TextCursor.setCharFormat(Default);
  67. 		TextCursor.insertText("\t");
  68. 		TextCursor.insertText(Query.value(2).toString() +" "+ QString(QChar(8364)));
  69.  
  70. 		TextCursor.setCharFormat(Default);
  71.  
  72. 		TextCursor = mainFrame->lastCursorPosition();
  73.  
  74. 		if(Query.at() != Query.size() - 1)
  75. 			TextCursor.insertBlock();
  76. 	}
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

This is the result I'm getting : http://www.ixamaxi.be/images/problem7.png

The documentation is not very "big" concerning this particular subject.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you very much,
