Problem in TextWord Wrapping in QListView[Unable to do both TextWordWrap & TextWrapAnywhere together ].

[psbhardwaj09gmail.com]

Hi,

I am working on a chat application where i have a QtextEdit and QListView . What ever i type in QTextedit its shown as new entry in QListView.

I am using custom delegate for QListView to show whole text in an item in QlistView . In that delegate i am using sizeHint and paint function as described below

@
void ChatViewItemDelegate::paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionViewItem &option, const QModelIndex & index) const
{

QString uri = index.model()->data(index, Qt::UserRole+2).toString();
QString textMessage = index.model()->data(index, Qt::UserRole+5).toString();

QRect messageRect = option.rect;
QRect uriRect = option.rect;

QFont font = QApplication::font();
font.setBold(true);
QFont messageFont = QApplication::font();
messageFont.setWeight(10);

QRectF boundryRect(option.rect.topLeft(), option.rect.bottomRight());
boundryRect.setRight(messageRect.right());
boundryRect.setTop(messageRect.top() + 1);

if (option.state & QStyle::State_Selected)
     painter->fillRect(boundryRect, option.palette.highlight());

painter->save();
painter->drawRect(boundryRect);

messageRect.setLeft(messageRect.left() + 20);
messageRect.setTop(messageRect.top() + 5);
messageRect.setRight(messageRect.right() - 5);
messageRect.setBottom(messageRect.bottom() - 5);

painter->drawText(messageRect,  Qt::AlignBottom | Qt::TextWrapAnywhere , textMessage);

painter->setFont(font);
painter->drawText(uriRect, Qt::AlignLeft  , uri);
painter->restore();

}

QSize ChatViewItemDelegate::sizeHint(const QStyleOptionViewItem& option, const QModelIndex& index) const
{
QAbstractItemView view = dynamic_cast<QAbstractItemView>(parent());
QFontMetricsF fontMetrics(view->fontMetrics());
QString str = index.data().toString().trimmed();
QStringList words = str.split(QChar(' '));
QStringList lines = str.split(QChar('\n'));
int noOfLines = lines.size();
if(noOfLines > 2)
noOfLines = 1;
else
noOfLines =0;
QRectF boundingRect = fontMetrics.boundingRect(str);
int width = view->viewport()->width()- 25;
int height = boundingRect.height();
int times = 0;
while (words.size() > 0)
{
times++;
qreal lineWidth = 0;
bool enoughSpace = true;
do
{
QString word = words.first();
qreal wordWidth = fontMetrics.width(word);
if(wordWidth > width)
{
times++;
while(wordWidth > width )
{
times++;
wordWidth -= width;
}
lineWidth = wordWidth;
words.removeFirst();
}

        else if (wordWidth + lineWidth < width)
        {
            lineWidth += wordWidth;
            lineWidth += fontMetrics.width(QChar(' '));
            words.removeFirst();
        }
        else
            enoughSpace = false;
    }
    while (enoughSpace && words.size() > 0);
}
height = height * times  + (2 + noOfLines)* boundingRect.height();
return QSize(width,  height);

}

Problem: please see the attachments
I am using Qt::TextWrapAnywhere for text wrapping. The problem with that is that it truncate the word in the end of line and show it in next line.

If i Use QT::TextWordWrap then if the word is too long then it doesnt truncate it ... on maximizing the window it appears.

If i use flags as @int flags = Qt::AlignBottom|Qt::TextDontClip|Qt::TextWordWrap|Qt::TextWrapAnywhere|Qt::TextJustificationForced;@ still it works like Qt::TextWrapAnywhere

Can someone please help me that what i should do to fix this.
