How to restrict maximum lines of user input in TextEdit in QML - qt

Question

I am currently trying to implement a textedit within a rectangle. The problem is that the user is still able to type beyond the confines of the rectangle. I have set the wrapMode to TextEdit.Wrap, but the problem is that the text from the textedit can spill over from the bottom of the rectangle. I tried to fix this by making clip true, but the user is still able to type characters but not see it. What do I do?
import QtQuick 2.12
import QtQml.Models 2.12
import QtQuick.Controls 2.12
import QtQuick.Controls.Styles 1.4
import QtQuick.Layouts 1.12
import QtGraphicalEffects 1.12
import QtMultimedia 5.0
Rectangle{
anchors{
top: parent.top
topMargin: parent.height/15
left: parent.left
leftMargin: parent.width/15
right: parent.right
rightMargin: parent.width/15
bottom: parent.bottom
bottomMargin: parent.height/1.2
}
color: 'white'
z: 1
radius: 15
TextEdit{
clip: true
cursorPosition: 5
anchors.fill: parent
wrapMode: TextEdit.Wrap
}
}
This is an image of the text with rectangle: clip is not set and wrapMode: TextEdit.Wrap. This image is the opposite of what I want

There is actually no way to limit the maximum number of rows. Theoretically, since this is open source, you can do anything, but it will require some effort. I can suggest a workaround:
Rectangle {
id: container
width: 200
height: 40
anchors.centerIn: parent
color: "orange"
TextEdit {
id: txt
anchors.fill: parent
padding: 3
font.pixelSize: 14
focus: true
wrapMode: TextEdit.Wrap
onTextChanged: {
var pos = txt.positionAt(1, container.height + 1);
if(txt.length >= pos)
{
txt.remove(pos, txt.length);
}
}
}
}
This method just cuts off everything that is found outside of the box.
