    Question Change the colour of a QT TextEdit row

    Hi all i wish to change the colour of a particular row within a text edit.

    In each row there is a field which is marked either as completed (Yes) or not completed (No). If the record is marked as not complete I wish for the row to be colour red. If the row is marked as complete I want the row to coloured green.

    Thanks for your time and trouble, btw I have no idea where to start.

    Thanks

    Have a look at QSyntaxHighlighter.
