you can add to a <a href="qgraphicsscene.html">QGraphicsScene</a> to display formatted text.</p> <p>If you only need to show plain text in an item, consider using <a href="qgraphicssimpletextitem.html">QGraphicsSimpleTextItem</a> instead.</p> <p>To set the item's text, pass a <a href="qstring.html">QString</a> to QGraphicsTextItem's constructor, or call <a href="qgraphicstextitem.html#setHtml">setHtml</a>()/<a href="qgraphicstextitem.html#setPlainText">setPlainText</a>().</p> <p>QGraphicsTextItem uses the text's formatted size and the associated font to provide a reasonable implementation of <a href="qgraphicstextitem.html#boundingRect">boundingRect</a>(), <a href="qgraphicstextitem.html#shape">shape</a>(), and <a href="qgraphicstextitem.html#contains">contains</a>(). You can set the font by calling <a href="qgraphicstextitem.html#setFont">setFont</a>().</p> <p>It is possible to make the item editable by setting the <a href="qt.html#TextInteractionFlag-enum">Qt.TextEditorInteraction</a> flag using <a href="qgraphicstextitem.html#setTextInteractionFlags">setTextInteractionFlags</a>().</p> <p>The item's preferred text width can be set using <a href="qgraphicstextitem.html#setTextWidth">setTextWidth</a>() and obtained using <a href="qgraphicstextitem.html#textWidth">textWidth</a>().</p> <p><b>Note:</b> In order to align HTML text in the center, the item's text width must be set.</p> <p class="centerAlign"><img alt="" src="images/graphicsview-textitem.png" /></p> <p><b>Note:</b> QGraphicsTextItem accepts <a href="qgraphicsitem.html#acceptHoverEvents">hover events</a> by default. You can change this with <a href="qgraphicsitem.html#setAcceptHoverEvents">setAcceptHoverEvents()</a>.</p> <hr /><h2>Method Documentation</h2><h3 class="fn"><a name="QGraphicsTextItem"
