PyQt/Qt: How do I temporarily override the paintEvent() method for a QTextEdit? (What am I doing wrong?)?

Rather than overloading the paintEvent, you could use a QStackedWidget and just swap the widgets over. This may be a simpler solution to the problem, as it is only a single call to setCurrentIndex to swap the visible widget.

Its a good idea, I wasn't aware of such a widget. (Though I would still like to know what I'm doing wrong, so I can better learn how to use paint events for painting widgets. ) – Jeff Dec 15 at 12:45.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
