I’m developing a program using Qt/C++ in Windows.

I’m trying to create a simple notepad-style Qt application. Since I think I might want a lot of control over exactly how text is rendered, I’m trying to write a custom QAbstractTextDocumentLayout class. The code below compiles and runs, but the text area is blank, no matter how much I type. The debug statements in my draw() function correctly show the entered text, so I know my input is in some form making it all the way to the draw() function, but it’s not being rendered.
