I'm using QScintilla to make my own notepad for fun in pyqt5 python. I was wandering if there is a way to get the number of lines of a QScintilla() widget?
You have to use the lines()
method, you can also use the linesChanged
signal.
import sys
from PyQt5 import QtWidgets, Qsci
class Editor(Qsci.QsciScintilla):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super().__init__(parent)
self.setText("Foo\nBar")
self.print_lines()
self.linesChanged.connect(self.handle_lines_changed)
def handle_lines_changed(self):
self.print_lines()
def print_lines(self):
print("total lines: {}".format(self.lines()))
if __name__ == "__main__":
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
w = Editor()
w.resize(640, 480)
w.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
