[Qt-interest] Qt4.4 QTextEdit size and viewport() size

Hello,
This should be simple but I can't figure it out. I have a QTextEdit with
lots of text so that scrollbars appear. I'm trying to get the size of the
widget that contains the text (for lack of a better description). I
thought the viewport() function did this, but it only returns the size of
the visible portion of the QTextEdit. The size of the QTextEdit itself
likewise is only the size of the visible widget.
So for example if you have a QTextEdit with many pages of text, the height
of the widget I'm looking for should certainly be more than the number of
pixels of the height of the screen, but both the QTextEdit's height()
function and the viewport() height() function both return the number of
pixels on the screen.
Thoughts? Ultimately it would be nice not just to get the size of the
underlying widget, but also a pointer to it itself. Thanks.
Josh
