memory mapped file or similar windowing support

Does this view support separation of scrollbar from contents?

I'm thinking of large file support here. Has this been tested for displaying large files, or with scroll-handlers for loading fixed-size buffers

https://github.com/Dax89/QHexView/tree/master/document/buffer looks promising, but as there are no tests I thought it might be easier to ask

The widget will paint only the visible area according to the scrollbar's position, so it's pretty fast.

Editing a large file is a bit tricky, you need to inherit from this class: https://github.com/Dax89/QHexView/blob/master/document/buffer/qhexbuffer.h, and implement the abstract methods with some large file handling algorithm (gap buffer, piece chains etc).

I'll close this.

exactly what I was asking I think, so this is presentation and implementing that would be what controlled implementation specifics 👍

Very cool library btw
