Use RichTextLayoutTracer to find out where are positions of various widgets you want to display (invent some way how to specify that in Qtf, e.g. misusing text in index would work), then, having positions, overlay them over the RichText.

I know this is an old topic but I have an interest in doing something like this for the project I'm working on, but I'm using Raw RichText, the code hierarchy is proving quite difficult to understand and I don't know if the information here is still up to date. Could you perhaps provide some direction as to where I can obtain the graphical extents of an element, a Para, or even a Cell etc so I can position a Ctrl to track with it?
