Is it a bug with QTextEdit?

[testbugs]

What should this piece of code look like when use WordWrap? The blank spaces are lost and i can not insert any more before "A"
@
QTextEdit *te = new QTextEdit();
te->setText(QString(" A lot blank space before"));
te->show();
@

Another way to reproduce the problem: in a QTextEdit, type blank space until it wraps to the second line, then you will find you can't type any more blanks, what's more, the blanks you typed before dispeared.

I don't quite understand your question but it is working correctly in my opinion.

You are using "QTextOption::WordWrap":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qtextoption.html#WrapMode-enum and setting it with: @te->setWordWrapMode(QTextOption::WordWrap);@ , aren't you?

Thanks for your reply! May be a picture can be more clearly。

below is my code in a new project, and there is nothing else.
@
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
QTextEdit *te = new QTextEdit();
te->setWordWrapMode(QTextOption::WordWrap); // seems not affect the result
te->setText(QString(" A"));
te->show();
return a.exec();
}

QTextOption::WordWrap is doing what it is supposed to do:

bq. Text is wrapped at word boundaries.

If you want to add blank space at the beginning of a line you could use "NoWrap" or "ManualWrap".

testbugs, did u try to resize the window? :) the A should come back to the first line.

[secretNinja]

No, it is staying on the second line ... after resizing the window :)

You might want to try using QTextEdit::setPlainText instead of setText. The latter version tries to make a guess what kind of text it is dealing with (rich text or plain text).

I tried your exact code and works fine for me though ...

[secretNinja]

I've made two copies (the code is testbugs's ;) ) and just resize the second one ... "A" goes to the second line (as it is supposed to do according to the documentation ... or at least I understand it that way).

I confirm the same behavior secretNinja :)

[testbugs]

the problem is when "A" goes to the second line, the blank spaces before "A" disappeared. If i want to input two lines of blank spaces, what should i do in a wordwrap mode? Must I use ManualWrap to implement this myself?

Input more blank spaces before "A" until it goes to the sencond line, and then you will find you can not input any more blank spaces.

Pressing "Enter" two time do the work. Could two new lines be used instead of two lines of spaces in what you want to do?

I think it is different.

I will try if I can implement this by using ManualWrap, Thanks everybody!
