Hi,
I want to align text present in QTextEdit.
I tried some options present in net like " text-align:center" but they didn't work.

Could you please help me on this...

Regards,
Anuj

Hi
You can always just right click a TextEdit in Designer and use its Edit HTML editor.
It allows you to do basic things and get the html.

<html><head/><body><p align="center"><span style=" font-size:8.25pt;">CENTER</span></p></body></html>

You can use setAlignment() method. Here's an example:

QTextEdit te;

te.append("This paragraph is left aligned");
te.setAlignment(Qt::AlignLeft);

te.append("This paragraph is right aligned");
te.setAlignment(Qt::AlignRight);

or you can use html:

QTextEdit te;
te.setHtml("<p align=\"left\">This paragraph is left aligned"
           "<p align=\"right\">This paragraph is right aligned");

or CSS:

QTextEdit te;
te.setHtml("<p style=\"text-align: left\">This paragraph is left aligned"
           "<p style=\"text-align: right\">This paragraph is right aligned");
