QTextEdit: Setting style on a DOM element removes globally set style from it

XMLWordPrintable

    • Linux/X11

      When an element has a style property, only CSS from that property is applied to it, not a combination of local and global CSS, as one would expect.

      Consider the following code:

      #include <QtWidgets/QApplication>
#include <QtWidgets/QTextEdit>

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    QApplication app(argc, argv);
    QTextEdit edit;
    edit.setHtml(
        "<!doctype html>\n"
        "<html>\n"
        "    <head>\n"
        "        <style type='text/css'>td { border: 5px solid red; }</style>\n"
        "    </head>\n"
        "    <body>\n"
        "        <table>\n"
        "            <tr>\n"
        "                <td>First cell</td>\n"
        "                <td style='text-align: left'>Second cell</td>\n"
        "            </tr>\n"
        "        </table>\n"
        "    </body>\n"
        "</html>\n"
    );
    edit.show();
    return app.exec();
}

      Second cell does not have the red border, but it should. A screenshot is attached.
