From 4772ac90fa84a81292477a4c9a283437fb5d791e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Elvis Angelaccio Date: Thu, 26 Oct 2017 18:22:14 +0200 Subject: QLineEdit: implement quick text selection by mouse This is a standard feature in GtkEntry widgets or HTML elements. During a normal text selection by mouse (LeftButton press + mouse move event), it's now possible to quickly select all the text from the start of the selection to the end of the line edit by moving the mouse cursor down. By moving it up instead, all the text up to the start of the line edit gets selected. If the layout direction is right-to-left, the semantic of the mouse movement is inverted. This feature is only enabled if the y() of the mouse move event is bigger than a fixed threshold, to avoid unexpected selections in the normal case. This threshold is set by the QPlatformTheme and a value smaller than zero disables this feature. The threshold is updated whenever the style or the screen changes. [ChangeLog][QtWidgets][QLineEdit] Implemented quick text selection by mouse in QLineEdit.
