[Qt-interest] HTML formatting tags with QPainter::drawText

[Sonic]

Hi

     Limited HTML formatting tags work when displaying text using a QLabel.
For example, "Hello <b>world</b>" will display "hello" in normal width 
and "world" in bold.

I want to display some text using QPainter::drawText (or something 
similar, in a widget's paintEvent) and I want to use this formatting 
feature. But just calling drawText with the above mentioned string will 
only print it as it is - i.e. the tags get printed as such.

Can anybody suggest a solution to this?

thanks and regards,

Syam
