Detailed Description#
Text frames provide structure for the text in a document. They are used as generic containers for other document elements. Frames are usually created by using insertFrame()
.
Frames can be used to create hierarchical structures in rich text documents. Each document has a root frame ( rootFrame()
), and each frame beneath the root frame has a parent frame and a (possibly empty) list of child frames. The parent frame can be found with parentFrame()
, and the childFrames()
function provides a list of child frames.
Each frame contains at least one text block to enable text cursors to insert new document elements within. As a result, the iterator
class is used to traverse both the blocks and child frames within a given frame. The first and last child elements in the frame can be found with begin()
and end()
.
A frame also has a format (specified using QTextFrameFormat
) which can be set with setFormat()
and read with format()
.
Text cursors can be obtained that point to the first and last valid cursor positions within a frame; use the firstCursorPosition()
and lastCursorPosition()
functions for this. The frame’s extent in the document can be found with firstPosition()
and lastPosition()
.
You can iterate over a frame’s contents using the iterator
class: this provides read-only access to its internal list of text blocks and child frames.
