I need to tag the selected text.
text -> <tag>text</tag>
cursor = self.textEdit.textCursor()
If cursor.hasSelection():
len_text = len(cursor.selectedText())
cursor.movePosition(QTextCursor.Left, QTextCursor.MoveAnchor, len_text)
cursor.insertText(tag)
cursor.movePosition(QTextCursor.Right, QTextCursor.MoveAnchor, len_text)
cursor.insertText(f'{tag[:1]}/{tag[1:]}')
cursor.clearSelection()
self.textEdit.setTextCursor(cursor)
Of course this will only work if the cursor is at the end of the selection
How do I move the cursor to the end if it is positioned elsewhere? Let's say the text was selected from right to left or by double clicking
Maybe I didn't choose the right approach to solve the problem?
