How to insert a combobox to QTextTable cell or QTextEdit?
-
I'd like to add a combobox into my QTextEdit content, which just needs to provide options for user to pick and record the selected one. I tried to insert the following as HTML to QTextEdit, but it does not work.
<form name=myform>
<select name=mytextarea>
<option name=one value=one> one </option>
<option name=two value=two> two </option>
<option name=three value=three> three </option>
</select>
</form> -
Hi,
QTextEdit is not a full featured web renderer. For what you want to do you should rather consider either QtWebEngine or QtWebKit.

How easy it is to convert QTextEdit to QtWebEngine etc? I'm using QTextEdit as a rich text editor and I have gone quite far with it. Since it is like an editor, it to deal with dynamically adding/deleting table/image/text etc, can QtWebEngine do that? I read some introduction about QtWebEngine and it is more like an engine to display html content... Any suggestion? Thanks.
For the combobox in QTextEdit, I do not need any signal etc. The combobox just need to show the text user select and that is it. Is there a way to achieve this in QTextEdit?

You should check with for example the Markdown Editor example.
As for the combobox, I'm not aware of that possibility however, I don't know how it is supposed to work within your editor. You could maybe use a contextual menu for that or have a QComboBox has an overlay on your document when your user should make a choice.
