uses QTextDocument for it’s WYSIWYG text editor. This is surpringly quite powerful and thanks to some code borrowed from KMail rich text editor, it wasn’t hard to implement huge part of the markdown specification. But while QTextDocument is great, I hit quickly some limits. This is why I started fixing some of them and I already have some patches up for review in Qt. Default table style By default the style of the tables looks straight from the 90s, I submitted a patch to use something a bit nicer: https://codereview.

    I wonder why you implemented part of markdown, rather than using QTextDocument’s existing markdown support. Is something that you need missing?

    I already have some patches up for review in Qt.

    Will you submit one for Qt’s markdown functionality as well?

      I’m already using QTextDocument markdown support. Just QTextDocument markdown support doesn’t include all the WYSIWYG functionalities.
