Member Function Documentation

void KEdit::cleanWhiteSpace (    )

Clean up redundant whitespace from selected text.

virtual void KEdit::create (  WId    = 0, bool    initializeWindow = true, bool    destroyOldWindow = true )  [protected, virtual]

Reimplemented for internal reasons, the API is not affected.

int KEdit::currentColumn (    )

Retrieve the actual column number the cursor is on. This call differs from QMultiLineEdit::getCursorPosition() in that it returns the actual cursor position and not the character position. Use currentLine() and currentColumn() if you want to display the current line or column in the status bar for example.

int KEdit::currentLine (    )

Retrieve the current line number. The current line is the line the cursor is on.

void KEdit::CursorPositionChanged (    )  [signal]

This signal is emitted whenever the cursor position changes. Use this in conjunction with currentLine(), currentColumn() if you need to know the cursor position.

void KEdit::doGotoLine (    )

Present a "Goto Line" dialog to the user.

void KEdit::gotUrlDrop (  QDropEvent *    e )  [signal]

This signal is emitted if the user dropped a URL over the text editor QMultiLineEdit widget. Note that the user can drop also Text on it, but this is already handled internally by QMultiLineEdit.

void KEdit::insertText (  QTextStream *    )

Insert text from the text stream into the edit widget.

void KEdit::installRBPopup (  QPopupMenu *    )

Install a context menu for KEdit. The Popup Menu will be activated on a right mouse button press event.

void KEdit::posToRowCol (  unsigned int    pos, unsigned int &    line, unsigned int &    col )  [protected]

Sets line and col to the position pos, considering word wrap.

bool KEdit::repeatSearch (    )

Repeat the last search specified on the search dialog. If the user hasn't searched for anything until now, this method will simply return without doing anything. Returns: true if a search was done. false if no search was done.

void KEdit::replace (    )

Present a Search and Replace Dialog to the user.

void KEdit::saveText (  QTextStream *   , bool    softWrap )

Save text from the edit widget to a text stream. If softWrap is false soft line wrappings are replaced with line-feeds If softWrap is true soft line wrappings are ignored. Since: 3.1

void KEdit::search (    )

Present a search dialog to the user

void KEdit::selectFont (    )

Let the user select a font and set the font of the textwidget to that selected font.

void KEdit::setOverwriteEnabled (  bool    b )

Allow the user to toggle between insert mode and overwrite mode with the "Insert" key. See also toggle_overwrite_signal(); The default is false: the user can not toggle.

void KEdit::spellcheck_start (    )

Start spellchecking mode.

void KEdit::spellcheck_stop (    )

Exit spellchecking mode.

void KEdit::toggle_overwrite_signal (    )  [signal]

This signal is emitted if the user toggles from insert to overwrite mode or vice versa. The user can do so by pressing the "Insert" button on a PC keyboard. This feature must be activated by calling setOverwriteEnabled(true) first.
