Detailed Description

The QGraphicsTextItem class provides a text item that you can add to a QGraphicsScene to display formatted text.

To set the item's text, pass a QString to QGraphicsTextItem's constructor, or call setHtml/setPlainText.

QGraphicsTextItem uses the text's formatted size and the associated font to provide a reasonable implementation of boundingRect, shape, and contains. You can set the font by calling setFont.

It is possible to make the item editable by setting the Qt::TextEditable flag using setTextInteractionFlags.

The item's preferred text width can be set using setTextWidth and obtained using textWidth.

Note: In order to align HTML text in the center, the item's text width must be set.
