# pyqt-textbox-graphics-widget

PyQt text box which is movable, auto-resizable by text size. Parent class is QGraphicsWidget.

## Requirements

* PyQt5 >= 5.8

## Setup

`python -m pip install pyqt-textbox-graphics-widget`

## Usage

You can move the box if you drag any areas near the border. If you click any areas near the middle of the box, cursor will be shown to let you write something down. Box will be auto-resized by text size. (See the result below)

## Example

Code Sample

```python

from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QGraphicsView, QGraphicsScene, QMainWindow

from pyqt_textbox_graphics_widget import TextBoxGraphicsWidget

class DiagramMainWindow(QMainWindow):

    def __init__(self):

        super().__init__()

        self.__initUi()

    def __initUi(self):

        view = QGraphicsView()

        self.__scene = QGraphicsScene()

        self.__scene.setSceneRect(0, 0, 400, 400)

        

        textBox = TextBoxGraphicsWidget()

        self.__scene.addItem(textBox)

        view.setScene(self.__scene)

        self.setCentralWidget(view)

if __name__ == "__main__":

    import sys

    app = QApplication(sys.argv)

    diagramMainWindow = DiagramMainWindow()

    diagramMainWindow.show()

    sys.exit(app.exec_())

```
