KRichTextEdit Class Reference
from PyKDE4.kdeui import *
Inherits: KTextEdit → QTextEdit → QAbstractScrollArea → QFrame → QWidget → QObject
Subclasses: KRichTextWidget
Detailed Description
The KRichTextEdit class provides a widget to edit and display rich text.
It offers several additional rich text editing functions to KTextEdit and makes them easier to access including:
The KRichTextEdit can be in two modes: Rich text mode and plain text mode. Calling functions which modify the format/style of the text will automatically enable the rich text mode. Rich text mode is sometimes also referred to as HTML mode.
Do not call setAcceptRichText() or acceptRichText() yourself. Instead simply connect to the slots which insert the rich text, use switchToPlainText() or enableRichTextMode().

- 4.1
