Detailed Description
Method Documentation
Constructs a KTextEdit object. See QTextEdit.QTextEdit for details.
| __init__ | ( | self, | ||
| QWidget | parent=0 | |||
| ) |
Constructs a KTextEdit object. See QTextEdit.QTextEdit for details.
| checkSpelling | ( | self ) |
Create a modal dialog to check the spelling. This slot will not return until spell checking has been completed.
| checkSpellingChanged | ( | self, | ||
| bool | a0 | |||
| ) |
emit signal when we activate or not autospellchecking
- Since:
- 4.1
- Signal syntax:
QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("checkSpellingChanged(bool)"), target_slot)
| bool checkSpellingEnabled | ( | self ) |
Returns true if background spell checking is enabled for this text edit. Note that it even returns true if this is a read-only KTextEdit, where spell checking is actually disabled. By default spell checking is disabled.
If a spell interface is set by setSpellInterface(), the call will be delegated to there instead.
- See also:
- setCheckSpellingEnabled()
| bool checkSpellingEnabledInternal | ( | self ) |
Checks whether spellchecking is enabled or disabled. This is what checkSpellingEnabled calls if there is no spell interface.
- Since:
- 4.2
| contextMenuEvent | ( | self, | ||
| QContextMenuEvent | a0 | |||
| ) |
Reimplemented from QTextEdit to add spelling related items when appropriate.
| createHighlighter | ( | self ) |
Allows to create a specific highlighter if reimplemented.
By default, it creates a normal highlighter, based on the config file given to setSpellCheckingConfigFileName().
This highlighter is set each time spell checking is toggled on by calling setCheckSpellingEnabled(), but can later be overridden by calling setHighlighter().
- See also:
- setHighlighter()
- See also:
- highlighter()
- See also:
- setSpellCheckingConfigFileName()
| deleteWordBack | ( | self ) |
Deletes a word backwards from the current cursor position, if available.
| deleteWordForward | ( | self ) |
Deletes a word forwards from the current cursor position, if available.
| enableFindReplace | ( | self, | ||
| bool | enabled | |||
| ) |
Enable find replace action.
- Since:
- 4.1
| bool event | ( | self, | ||
| QEvent | a0 | |||
| ) |
Reimplemented to catch "delete word" shortcut events.
| focusInEvent | ( | self, | ||
| QFocusEvent | a0 | |||
| ) |
Reimplemented to instantiate a KDictSpellingHighlighter, if spellchecking is enabled.
| highlightWord | ( | self, | ||
| int | length, | |||
| int | pos | |||
| ) |
Selects the characters at the specified position. Any previous selection will be lost. The cursor is moved to the first character of the new selection.
- Parameters:
-
length The length of the selection, in number of characters pos The position of the first character of the selection
| Sonnet.Highlighter highlighter | ( | self ) |
Returns the current highlighter, which is 0 if spell checking is disabled. The default highlighter is the one created by createHighlighter(), but might be overridden by setHighlighter().

- setHighlighter()
- See also:
- createHighlighter()
| keyPressEvent | ( | self, | ||
| QKeyEvent | a0 | |||
| ) |
Reimplemented for internal reasons
| languageChanged | ( | self, | ||
| QString | language | |||
| ) |
Emitted when the user changes the language in the spellcheck dialog shown by checkSpelling() or when calling setSpellCheckingLanguage().
- Parameters:
-
language the new language the user selected
- Since:
- 4.1
- Signal syntax:
QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("languageChanged(const QString&)"), target_slot)
| QMenu mousePopupMenu | ( | self ) |
Return standard KTextEdit popupMenu
- Since:
- 4.1
| replace | ( | self ) |
Create replace dialogbox
- Since:
- 4.1
| setCheckSpellingEnabled | ( | self, | ||
| bool | check | |||
| ) |
Turns background spell checking for this text edit on or off. Note that spell checking is only available in read-writable KTextEdits.
Enabling spell checking will set back the current highlighter to the one returned by createHighlighter().
If a spell interface is set by setSpellInterface(), the call will be delegated to there instead.
- See also:
- checkSpellingEnabled()
- See also:
- isReadOnly()
- See also:
- setReadOnly()
| setCheckSpellingEnabledInternal | ( | self, | ||
| bool | check | |||
| ) |
Enable or disable the spellchecking. This is what setCheckSpellingEnabled() calls if there is no spell interface.
- Since:
- 4.2
| setHighlighter | ( | self, | ||
| Sonnet.Highlighter | _highLighter | |||
| ) |
Sets a custom backgound spell highlighter for this text edit. Normally, the highlighter returned by createHighlighter() will be used to detect and highlight incorrectly spelled words, but this function allows to set a custom highlighter.
This has to be called after enabling spell checking with setCheckSpellingEnabled(), otherwise it has no effect.
- See also:
- highlighter()
- See also:
- createHighlighter()
- Parameters:
-
highLighter the new highlighter which will be used now
| setReadOnly | ( | self, | ||
| bool | readOnly | |||
| ) |
Reimplemented to set a proper "deactivated" background color.
| setSpellCheckingConfigFileName | ( | self, | ||
| QString | fileName | |||
| ) |
Allows to override the config file where the settings for spell checking, like the current language or encoding, are stored. By default, the global config file (kdeglobals) is used, to share spell check settings between all applications.
This has to be called before any spell checking is initiated.
- Parameters:
-
fileName the URL of the config file which will be used to read spell settings
@bug this has no effect for the spell dialog, only for the background check
| setSpellCheckingLanguage | ( | self, | ||
| QString | language | |||
| ) |
Set the spell check language which will be used for highlighting spelling mistakes and for the spellcheck dialog. The languageChanged() signal will be emitted when the new language is different from the old one.
- Since:
- 4.1
| setSpellInterface | ( | self, | ||
| KTextEditSpellInterface | spellInterface | |||
| ) |
Sets the spell interface, which is used to delegate certain function calls to the interface. This is a workaround for binary compatibility and should be removed in KDE5.
- Since:
- 4.2
Opens a Sonnet.ConfigDialog for this text edit. The config settings the user makes are read from and stored to the given config file. The spellcheck language of the config dialog is set to the current spellcheck language of the textedit. If the user changes the language in that dialog, the languageChanged() signal is emitted.
- Parameters:
-
configFileName The file which is used to store and load the config settings windowIcon the icon which is used for the titlebar of the spell dialog window. Can be empty, then no icon is set.
- Since:
- 4.2
| slotDoFind | ( | self ) |
| slotDoReplace | ( | self ) |

| spellCheckStatus | ( | self, | ||
| QString | a0 | |||
| ) |
Signal sends when spell checking is finished/stopped/completed
- Since:
- 4.1
- Signal syntax:
QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("spellCheckStatus(const QString&)"), target_slot)
| QString spellCheckingLanguage | ( | self ) |
- Returns:
- the spell checking language which was set by setSpellCheckingLanguage(), the spellcheck dialog or the spellcheck config dialog, or an empty string if that has never been called.
- Since:
- 4.2
| wheelEvent | ( | self, | ||
| QWheelEvent | a0 | |||
| ) |
Reimplemented to allow fast-wheelscrolling with Ctrl-Wheel or zoom.
