[solved]Can I use QPainter to draw a code editor?
-
I want to program an IDE and wonder if I could use QPainter to draw a code editor myself. I know it will be troublesome to draw a code editor, but I don't know other solution. Any other solution?

Hi and welcome to devnet,
Are you thinking of an editor like the one from QtCreator ?

Exactly...How can I code that? Do I have to use QPainter to draw it myself?

No you don't. Have a look at QSyntaxHighlighter and the associated examples.
You can also check the implementation of QtCreator.
