CheckBox inside a TextEdit

[afro_cv]

How do I place a Checbox inside a QTextedit? I ask this because I need to create a QTextedit that has a checkbox to print

[mvuori]

It is really impossible to think of a checkbox inside a text edit field, in any UI library, in any OS. Checkboxes belong alonside text fields in dialogs, forms, etc.
Your platform seems to be Windows. I don't think you have ever seen a Windows application with a checkbox inside a text field. That ought to give something to think about.

How do I place a Checbox inside a QTextedit?

The same way you place any widget inside any other widget.

Well you could align the checkbox inside the bounds of the edit box...

Is that I want to create a document for QPrintPreviewDialog, that has the checkbox. I want to create a document like the one that is in the Attachments.

And I try HTML:
doc.setHtml( "Soccer: <input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"sports\" value=\"soccer\" /><br />");
but doesnt work.

So you don't want a checkbox inside QTextEdit but rather a checkbox inside a document. You need to subclass QTextObjectInterface and implement a checkbox text object.

What is the checkbox text object? After your reply walked to investigate on google and found this examples:

http://developer.qt.nokia.com/doc/qt...extformat.html
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/richtext-textobject.html

My doubt is how can I implement checkboxtextobject. In the example of nokia, they use QTextFormat:: UserObject and svgtextobject.cpp they use the drawImage method, as is the draw for the checkbox?

[wysota]

You need to implement a similar text object for the checkbox as they have for svg images.

I need know how to change cursor for the next 2 line , after the table to put my checkbox. Do you know how?

QTextDocument *document = ui->textEdit->document();
        QTextCursor cursor(document);
 
        cursor.movePosition(QTextCursor::Start);
        cursor.movePosition(QTextCursor::EndOfLine, QTextCursor::KeepAnchor);
 
        QTextCharFormat format;
        QTextTableFormat fmtTable;
        fmtTable.setCellSpacing(0);
        fmtTable.setBorder(1);
        format.setFontWeight(QFont::Bold);
        QFont fonte;
        fonte.setFamily("Calibri");
        fonte.setBold(true);
        fonte.setPointSize(12);
        cursor.mergeCharFormat(format);
        cursor.insertText("1. Identificação\n\n");
        format.setFont(fonte);
 
        QTextTable *table =cursor.insertTable(1,2,fmtTable);
        table->cellAt(0, 0).firstCursorPosition().insertText("Nome : ");
        table->cellAt(0, 1).firstCursorPosition().insertText("Helder Lobato");
 
cursor.insertText("\n\n1. Identificação\n\n");

QTextDocument *document = ui->textEdit->document();
        QTextCursor cursor(document);

        cursor.movePosition(QTextCursor::Start);
        cursor.movePosition(QTextCursor::EndOfLine, QTextCursor::KeepAnchor);

        QTextCharFormat format;
        QTextTableFormat fmtTable;
        fmtTable.setCellSpacing(0);
        fmtTable.setBorder(1);
        format.setFontWeight(QFont::Bold);
        QFont fonte;
        fonte.setFamily("Calibri");
        fonte.setBold(true);
        fonte.setPointSize(12);
        cursor.mergeCharFormat(format);
        cursor.insertText("1. Identificação\n\n");
        format.setFont(fonte);

        QTextTable *table =cursor.insertTable(1,2,fmtTable);
        table->cellAt(0, 0).firstCursorPosition().insertText("Nome : ");
        table->cellAt(0, 1).firstCursorPosition().insertText("Helder Lobato");

cursor.insertText("\n\n1. Identificação\n\n");

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

I don't know what you mean by "change cursor".

[afro_cv]

I want to continue writing the text after created the table, the problem is that after you create the table, I can't get out of the table cells.
Look in the atchament.

Ths in advance, Sorry for my English, I'm Portuguese and I am using bing and google to do the translation

[wysota]

QTextCursor has all the facilities needed to reposition the cursor.
