[Qt-qml] Basic rich text editing in QML

[Cornelius Hald]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to do basic rich text editing in QML. Basically I'd like to
do a simple text editor where you, for example, can select text and mark
it as bold or italic.

So far I've looked at TextEdit, but it looks like I have to copy the
value of the 'text' property, add markup, and write it back. That
doesn't really look like a solution.

Is there maybe another text widget in one of the 'components' projects?
I couldn't find one so far.

Also I've heard there might come a more feature-full text widget in QML
2.0. Is that true? Is there some code already available?

I'm also willing to use some C++, so would it make sense to inherit
TextEdit and build on top of that? Or build on top of anything else?

I'm looking forward to your suggestions.

Thanks!
Conny
