QTextOption.setTabArray has no effekt in QTextEdit

[kochelmonster]

Hi all,

I am trying to modify the tab positions of an QTextEdit (see the code below)
But it seems to have no effect at all. If I enter tabs ("\t") in the edit window,
they still have the standard space of 80px them.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong, or is this a bug?

import sys

class MainWindow(QTextEdit):
def init(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(MainWindow, self).init(*args, **kwargs)

    opt = self.document().defaultTextOption()
    opt.setTabArray([100, 110, 270]) #has no effekt
    #opt.setTabStop(40)  #this works if uncommented
    self.document().setDefaultTextOption(opt)

    print [t.position for t in self.document().defaultTextOption().tabs() ]

def main():
# Create a Qt application
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
w = MainWindow()
w.show()
app.exec_()
print repr(w.toHtml())

if name == "main":
main()

Oh, no. Are you all conspired?

Moderator will move this post to the "Bindings" forum. It's Genaral & Desktop - here only C++ questions! Your code written in Python - it means that you need to post it into Language Binidings forum.

This is not a problem with the Python binding. I only wrote it in python because the code is smaller. If you translate it in C++ you get the same efffect.
