[Qt-interest] Embed value in text editor

[Graham Labdon]

Hello list
I am developing a specialised text editor as part of my application.
What I need to do is to allow the user to insert certain fields (for example current date), when this happens the current date should not be used, but instead a 'marker' should be used.
The document created in this way is used by another part of the application and this is when I need to user the actual date and not the 'marker'.

I would be grateful of any suggestions on the best way to achieve this.
I think I should be able to create a 'marker' in the document by inserting highlighted text or something similar, but an additional requirement is that the user should not be able to edit a 'marker' value in the document.

I would be grateful of any suggestions on the best way to achieve this.

Thanks

Graham
