Detailed Description#

A QTextDocumentFragment is a fragment of rich text, that can be inserted into a QTextDocument . A document fragment can be created from a QTextDocument , from a QTextCursor ‘s selection, or from another document fragment. Document fragments can also be created by the static functions, fromPlainText() and fromHtml() .

The contents of a document fragment can be obtained as raw text by using the toRawText() function, as ASCII with toPlainText() , as HTML with toHtml() , or as Markdown with toMarkdown() .

plainText – str

Return type:

bool

Returns true if the fragment is empty; otherwise returns false.

PySide6.QtGui.QTextDocumentFragment.toHtml()#
