    Hi,

    I have a plan to develop a text editing app. In this app, I'll need Microsoft Word like editing features. It does not need to have all of them, of course, but the basics one like Italic, Bold, Underline, Justification, Font size, Font type, Images, etc.

    I'll need save/load functions that exports to a format where these stylings gets saved, as I will use it in browsers and mobile devices. One important thing for me is a feature that applies a underlined red squiggle, to give the impression that a word is misspelled. This is a style that does not get saved to the documents, it is only for show. An easy way to look for misspelled words for a given language would be really nice, but it's not required. With some effort, I can implement this myself.

    Do you guys knows if there is a project somewhere to be the starting point of my application? I tried wxWidgets, but the wxRichTextCtrl of theirs does not support a red squiggle. I tought about Flutter, but I would love to flex my C++ skills. :D

    Thank you for your time.

      The Text Edit example shows Qt's rich text editing facilities in action.

      Maybe that's what you are looking for

      Be patient, I am a bit different!
