Handling a QTextEdit from another form

Question

So the question is how to set a value of textEdit from another form?

P.S. Sorry for my English.

Answer 1

myTextEdit->setPlainText(text), myTextEdit->setHtml(text) or by directly modifying the editor's QTextDocument instance.

Answer 2

You have two options, either you can simply call one of the setText functions from a function within another form like this:

otherForm->setPlainText(text);

Or you could connect the two forms with signals like this:

connect(form1, SIGNAL(updateText(const QString&)),
        form2->myTextEdit, SLOT(setText(const QString&)))

Either of these are valid ways to do it.
