How to add the data from the bottom right of QTextEdit?.

[dileeh]

Hi,

I added a QTextEdit widget in read only mode as shown below, if i set the alignemt right able to add the data from the right, i tried modifying that to Qt::AlignBottom which was not working as expected. Please provide me the solution how to add the data from bottom right of QTextEdit and append the data from bottom?. means i need to scroll the data from bottom up.

log = new QTextEdit();
log->setReadOnly(true);
log->setAlignment(Qt::AlignRight);
log->setText("check");

Thanks
Madhu.

Hi,

As you can see from documentation of QTextEdit (http://doc.trolltech.com/4.5/qtexted...l#setAlignment) bottom alignment for this widget is not
supported.

As you are already working with read only text, could you try to work with QLabel?
E.g.
QLabel *label = new QLabel(this);
label->setFrameStyle(QFrame::Panel | QFrame::Sunken);
label->setText("first line\nsecond line");
label->setAlignment(Qt::AlignBottom | Qt::AlignRight);

Cheers,
FB

Hi FB,

But QLabel doesn't have the method append(), i want to append the lines to QTextEdit from bottom to top. Please let me know any other widget is having both the features append and alignment to bottom right?.

Thanks
Madhu.

Hi Dileeh,

I think you can use a combiation of a Qstring and a label. As you told in your last post you need append functionality you can use string and than later on you can display it on label.

Hope this helps you.

Hi Dileeh,

I think the the james1980 is right but if you want to try something apart of this,then you can go for QLineEdit here also you can set the alingment to right and can add the data from rightside of QLineEdit.

Hope this helps you
