<hr><a name="details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>


The QSimpleRichText class provides a small displayable piece of rich text.
<p> 

<p> This class encapsulates simple rich text usage in which a string
is interpreted as rich text and can be drawn. This is particularly
useful if you want to display some rich text in a custom widget. A
<a href="qstylesheet.html">QStyleSheet</a> is needed to interpret the tags and format the rich
text. Qt provides a default HTML-like style sheet, but you may
define custom style sheets.
<p> Once created, the rich text object can be queried for its <a href="#width">width</a>(),
<a href="#height">height</a>(), and the actual width used (see <a href="#widthUsed">widthUsed</a>()). Most
importantly, it can be drawn on any given <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a> with <a href="#draw">draw</a>().
QSimpleRichText can also be used to implement hypertext or active
text facilities by using <a href="#anchorAt">anchorAt</a>(). A hit test through <a href="#inText">inText</a>()
makes it possible to use simple rich text for text objects in
editable drawing canvases.
<p> Once constructed from a string the contents cannot be changed,
only resized. If the contents change, just throw the rich text
object away and make a new one with the new contents.
<p> For large documents use <a href="qtextedit.html">QTextEdit</a> or <a href="qtextbrowser.html">QTextBrowser</a>. For very small
items of rich text you can use a <a href="qlabel.html">QLabel</a>.
<p> If you are using QSimpleRichText to print in high resolution you
should call <a href="#setWidth">setWidth</a>(QPainter, int) so that the content will be
laid out properly on the page.
<p>See also <a href="text.html">Text Related Classes</a>.

<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="QSimpleRichText"></a>QSimpleRichText::QSimpleRichText ( const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;text, const&nbsp;<a href="qfont.html">QFont</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;fnt, const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;context = QString::null, const&nbsp;<a href="qstylesheet.html">QStyleSheet</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;sheet = 0 )
</h3>
Constructs a QSimpleRichText from the rich text string <em>text</em> and
the font <em>fnt</em>.
<p> The font is used as a basis for the text rendering. When using
rich text rendering on a widget <em>w</em>, you would normally specify
the widget's font, for example:
<p> <pre>
    QSimpleRichText myrichtext( contents, mywidget-&gt;font() );
    </pre>
 
<p> <em>context</em> is the optional context of the rich text object. This
becomes important if <em>text</em> contains relative references, for
example within image tags. QSimpleRichText always uses the default
mime source factory (see <a href="qmimesourcefactory.html#defaultFactory">QMimeSourceFactory::defaultFactory</a>())
to resolve those references. The context will then be used to
calculate the absolute path. See
<a href="qmimesourcefactory.html#makeAbsolute">QMimeSourceFactory::makeAbsolute</a>() for details.
<p> The <em>sheet</em> is an optional style sheet. If it is 0, the default
style sheet will be used (see <a href="qstylesheet.html#defaultSheet">QStyleSheet::defaultSheet</a>()).

<h3 class=fn><a name="QSimpleRichText-2"></a>QSimpleRichText::QSimpleRichText ( const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;text, const&nbsp;<a href="qfont.html">QFont</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;fnt, const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;context, const&nbsp;<a href="qstylesheet.html">QStyleSheet</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;sheet, const&nbsp;<a href="qmimesourcefactory.html">QMimeSourceFactory</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;factory, int&nbsp;pageBreak = -1, const&nbsp;<a href="qcolor.html">QColor</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;linkColor = Qt::blue, bool&nbsp;linkUnderline = TRUE )
</h3>
Constructs a QSimpleRichText from the rich text string <em>text</em> and
the font <em>fnt</em>.
<p> This is a slightly more complex constructor for QSimpleRichText
that takes an additional mime source factory <em>factory</em>, a page
break parameter <em>pageBreak</em> and a bool <em>linkUnderline</em>. <em>linkColor</em> is only provided for compatibility, but has no effect,
as <a href="qcolorgroup.html">QColorGroup</a>'s <a href="qcolorgroup.html#link">QColorGroup::link</a>() color is used now.
<p> <em>context</em> is the optional context of the rich text object. This
becomes important if <em>text</em> contains relative references, for
example within image tags. QSimpleRichText always uses the default
mime source factory (see <a href="qmimesourcefactory.html#defaultFactory">QMimeSourceFactory::defaultFactory</a>())
to resolve those references. The context will then be used to
calculate the absolute path. See
<a href="qmimesourcefactory.html#makeAbsolute">QMimeSourceFactory::makeAbsolute</a>() for details.
<p> The <em>sheet</em> is an optional style sheet. If it is 0, the default
style sheet will be used (see <a href="qstylesheet.html#defaultSheet">QStyleSheet::defaultSheet</a>()).
<p> This constructor is useful for creating a QSimpleRichText object
suitable for printing. Set <em>pageBreak</em> to be the height of the
contents area of the pages.

<h3 class=fn><a name="~QSimpleRichText"></a>QSimpleRichText::~QSimpleRichText ()
</h3>
Destroys the rich text object, freeing memory.

<h3 class=fn>void <a name="adjustSize"></a>QSimpleRichText::adjustSize ()
</h3>
Adjusts the richt text object to a reasonable size.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#setWidth">setWidth</a>().

<h3 class=fn><a href="qstring.html">QString</a> <a name="anchorAt"></a>QSimpleRichText::anchorAt ( const&nbsp;<a href="qpoint.html">QPoint</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;pos ) const
</h3>
Returns the anchor at the requested position, <em>pos</em>. An empty
string is returned if no anchor is specified for this position.

<h3 class=fn><a href="qstring.html">QString</a> <a name="context"></a>QSimpleRichText::context () const
</h3>
Returns the context of the rich text object. If no context has
been specified in the constructor, a null string is returned. The
context is the path to use to look up relative links, such as
image tags and anchor references.

<h3 class=fn>void <a name="draw"></a>QSimpleRichText::draw ( <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;p, int&nbsp;x, int&nbsp;y, const&nbsp;<a href="qrect.html">QRect</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;clipRect, const&nbsp;<a href="qcolorgroup.html">QColorGroup</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;cg, const&nbsp;<a href="qbrush.html">QBrush</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;paper = 0 ) const
</h3>
Draws the formatted text with painter <em>p</em>, at position (<em>x</em>, <em>y</em>), clipped to <em>clipRect</em>. The clipping rectangle is given in the
rich text object's coordinates translated by (<em>x</em>, <em>y</em>). Passing
an null rectangle results in no clipping. Colors from the color
group <em>cg</em> are used as needed, and if not 0, <em>*paper</em> is used as
the background brush.
<p> Note that the display code is highly optimized to reduce flicker,
so passing a brush for <em>paper</em> is preferable to simply clearing
the area to be painted and then calling this without a brush.

<p>Examples: <a href="qaction-application-example.html#x1158">action/application.cpp</a>, <a href="simple-application-example.html#x1576">application/application.cpp</a>, <a href="helpviewer-example.html#x1014">helpviewer/helpwindow.cpp</a>, and <a href="mdi-example.html#x2061">mdi/application.cpp</a>.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="draw-2"></a>QSimpleRichText::draw ( <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;p, int&nbsp;x, int&nbsp;y, const&nbsp;<a href="qregion.html">QRegion</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;clipRegion, const&nbsp;<a href="qcolorgroup.html">QColorGroup</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;cg, const&nbsp;<a href="qbrush.html">QBrush</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;paper = 0 ) const
</h3> 
<p> <b>This function is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
<p> Use the version with clipRect instead. The region version has
problems with larger documents on some platforms (on X11 regions
internally are represented with 16bit coordinates).

<h3 class=fn>int <a name="height"></a>QSimpleRichText::height () const
</h3>
Returns the height of the rich text object in pixels.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#setWidth">setWidth</a>().

<p>Examples: <a href="qaction-application-example.html#x1159">action/application.cpp</a>, <a href="simple-application-example.html#x1577">application/application.cpp</a>, <a href="helpviewer-example.html#x1015">helpviewer/helpwindow.cpp</a>, and <a href="mdi-example.html#x2062">mdi/application.cpp</a>.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="inText"></a>QSimpleRichText::inText ( const&nbsp;<a href="qpoint.html">QPoint</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;pos ) const
</h3>
Returns TRUE if <em>pos</em> is within a text line of the rich text
object; otherwise returns FALSE.

<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setDefaultFont"></a>QSimpleRichText::setDefaultFont ( const&nbsp;<a href="qfont.html">QFont</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;f )
</h3>
Sets the default font for the rich text object to <em>f</em>

<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setWidth"></a>QSimpleRichText::setWidth ( <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;p, int&nbsp;w )
</h3>
Sets the width of the rich text object to <em>w</em> pixels,
recalculating the layout as if it were to be drawn with painter <em>p</em>.
<p> Passing a painter is useful when you intend drawing on devices
other than the screen, for example a <a href="qprinter.html">QPrinter</a>.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#height">height</a>() and <a href="#adjustSize">adjustSize</a>().

<p>Examples: <a href="qaction-application-example.html#x1160">action/application.cpp</a>, <a href="simple-application-example.html#x1578">application/application.cpp</a>, <a href="helpviewer-example.html#x1016">helpviewer/helpwindow.cpp</a>, and <a href="mdi-example.html#x2063">mdi/application.cpp</a>.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setWidth-2"></a>QSimpleRichText::setWidth ( int&nbsp;w )
</h3>
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
<p> Sets the width of the rich text object to <em>w</em> pixels.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#height">height</a>() and <a href="#adjustSize">adjustSize</a>().

<h3 class=fn>int <a name="width"></a>QSimpleRichText::width () const
</h3>
Returns the set width of the rich text object in pixels.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#widthUsed">widthUsed</a>().

<h3 class=fn>int <a name="widthUsed"></a>QSimpleRichText::widthUsed () const
</h3>
Returns the width in pixels that is actually used by the rich text
object. This can be smaller or wider than the set width.
<p> It may be wider, for example, if the text contains images or
non-breakable words that are already wider than the available
space. It's smaller when the object only consists of lines that do
not fill the width completely.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#width">width</a>().
