Okay, found it. Here's how I did, as a reference in case someone else has the same problem later on. :) The standard behavior of a QTextEdit's content widget (that you obtain with the viewport() method), is to have mouseTracking enabled. This is because QTextEdit is a specialisation of QScrollView. There is thus an event sent everytime the mouse cursor moves over the QTextEdit. This event can be caught by overloading contentsMouseMoveEvent(). In there, you get the current position of the mouse pointer, and see if there's a link at this position with QTextEdit's anchorAt method. This allows you to set the mouse cursor to a pointing hand when you're on a link. Be sure to set the mouse cursor for the viewport() and not the QTextEdit itself, since it's in the content, in the viewport(), that you want it to happen. And catching clicks is, likewise, a matter of overloading contentsMousePressEvent() and contentsMouseReleaseEvent(). Don't forget to forward the event to the parent class when you're done with it! That's it. I feared overloading a MouseMove event in Python would be awfully slow, but it seems to work fine. Aaand now, for bonus points, any idea about how to make links underlined only when the mouse pointer is over it? -- S. _______________________________________________ PyKDE mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mats.imk.fraunhofer.de/mailman/listinfo/pykde
