[SOVLED] How to use monospaced fonts with QTextEdit?
-
I have a QTextEdit and I want to use a monospaced font. Although, any attempts to use one failed. At most it changed a bit the spacing between characters, but nothing more, and in no way it used a monospaced font.
My code is placed inside an object's contructor, and works like this:
@
...
textFont = new QFont;
textFont->setFamily("monospace [Consolas]");
textFont->setFixedPitch(true);
textFont->setStyleHint(QFont::TypeWriter);
...
textWidget = new QTextEdit;
textWidget->setCurrentFont(*textFont);
@
Whatever settings I try to use they don't give me the desired effect. Also, did I miss it or there is no method in QFont that simply allows to set a font's name? I read in some replies on other forums about a QFont.setFont("font name") method, but it's not available in Qt 5.3 and 5.4.Any help, please?
