public class QGraphicsPixmapItem
extends QtJambiObject
implements QGraphicsItemInterface

The QGraphicsPixmapItem class provides a pixmap item that you can add to a QGraphicsScene. To set the item's pixmap, pass a QPixmap to QGraphicsPixmapItem's constructor, or call the setPixmap() function. The pixmap() function returns the current pixmap.

QGraphicsPixmapItem uses pixmap's optional alpha mask to provide a reasonable implementation of boundingRect(), shape(), and contains().

The pixmap is drawn at the item's (0, 0) coordinate, as returned by offset(). You can change the drawing offset by calling setOffset().

You can set the pixmap's transformation mode by calling setTransformationMode(). By default, Qt::FastTransformation is used, which provides fast, non-smooth scaling. Qt::SmoothTransformation enables QPainter::SmoothPixmapTransform on the painter, and the quality depends on the platform and viewport. The result is usually not as good as calling QPixmap::scale() directly. Call transformationMode() to get the current transformation mode for the item.

Method Detail

acceptDrops

public final boolean acceptDrops()

Returns true if this item can accept drag and drop events; otherwise, returns false. By default, items do not accept drag and drop events; items are transparent to drag and drop.

See also:

setAcceptDrops().

Specified by:

acceptDrops in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

acceptHoverEvents

public final boolean acceptHoverEvents()

Returns true if an item accepts hover events (QGraphicsSceneHoverEvent); otherwise, returns false. By default, items do not accept hover events.

See also:

setAcceptHoverEvents(), and setAcceptedMouseButtons().

Specified by:

acceptHoverEvents in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

acceptedMouseButtons

public final Qt.MouseButtons acceptedMouseButtons()

Returns the mouse buttons that this item accepts mouse events for. By default, all mouse buttons are accepted.

If an item accepts a mouse button, it will become the mouse grabber item when a mouse press event is delivered for that mouse button. However, if the item does not accept the button, QGraphicsScene will forward the mouse events to the first item beneath it that does.

See also:

setAcceptedMouseButtons(), and mousePressEvent().

Specified by:

acceptedMouseButtons in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

acceptsHoverEvents

public final boolean acceptsHoverEvents()

Call acceptHoverEvents() instead.

See also:

setAcceptsHoverEvents().

Specified by:

acceptsHoverEvents in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

boundingRegion

public final QRegion boundingRegion(QTransform itemToDeviceTransform)

Returns the bounding region for this item. The coordinate space of the returned region depends on itemToDeviceTransform. If you pass an identity QTransform as a parameter, this function will return a local coordinate region.

The bounding region describes a coarse outline of the item's visual contents. Although it's expensive to calculate, it's also more precise than boundingRect(), and it can help to avoid unnecessary repainting when an item is updated. This is particularily efficient for thin items (e.g., lines or simple polygons). You can tune the granularity for the bounding region by calling setBoundingRegionGranularity(). The default granularity is 0; in which the item's bounding region is the same as its bounding rect.

itemToDeviceTransform is the transformation from item coordinates to device coordinates. If you want this function to return a QRegion in scene coordinates, you can pass sceneTransform() as an argument.

See also:

boundingRegionGranularity().

Specified by:

boundingRegion in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

boundingRegionGranularity

public final double boundingRegionGranularity()

Returns the item's bounding region granularity; a value between and including 0 and 1. The default value is 0 (i.e., the lowest granularity, where the bounding region corresponds to the item's bounding rectangle).

See also:

setBoundingRegionGranularity().

Specified by:

boundingRegionGranularity in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

cacheMode

public final QGraphicsItem.CacheMode cacheMode()

Returns the cache mode for this item. The default mode is NoCache (i.e., cache is disabled and all painting is immediate).

See also:

setCacheMode().

Specified by:

cacheMode in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

childItems

public final java.util.List childItems()

Returns a list of this item's children. The items are returned in no particular order.

See also:

setParentItem().

Specified by:

childItems in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

childrenBoundingRect

public final QRectF childrenBoundingRect()

Returns the bounding rect of this item's descendants (i. ., its children, their children, etc.) in local coordinates. The rectangle will contain all descendants after they have been mapped to local coordinates. If the item has no children, this function returns an empty QRectF.

This does not include this item's own bounding rect; it only returns its descendants' accumulated bounding rect. If you need to include this item's bounding rect, you can add boundingRect() to childrenBoundingRect() using QRectF::operator|().

This function is linear in complexity; it determines the size of the returned bounding rect by iterating through all descendants.

See also:

boundingRect(), and sceneBoundingRect().

Specified by:

childrenBoundingRect in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

clearFocus

public final void clearFocus()

Takes keyboard input focus from the item.

If it has focus, a focus out event is sent to this item to tell it that it is about to lose the focus.

Only items that set the ItemIsFocusable flag, or widgets that set an appropriate focus policy, can accept keyboard focus.

See also:

setFocus(), and QGraphicsWidget::focusPolicy.

Specified by:

clearFocus in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

clipPath

public final QPainterPath clipPath()

Returns this item's clip path, or an empty QPainterPath if this item is not clipped. The clip path constrains the item's appearance and interaction (i.e., restricts the area the item can draw, and it also restricts the area that the item receives events).

You can enable clipping by setting the ItemClipsToShape or ItemClipsChildrenToShape flags. The item's clip path is calculated by intersecting all clipping ancestors' shapes. If the item sets ItemClipsToShape , the final clip is intersected with the item's own shape.

Note: Clipping introduces a performance penalty for all items involved; you should generally avoid using clipping if you can (e.g., if your items always draw inside boundingRect() or shape() boundaries, clipping is not necessary).

See also:

isClipped(), shape(), and setFlags().

Specified by:

clipPath in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

collidingItems

public final java.util.List collidingItems(Qt.ItemSelectionMode mode)

Returns a list of all items that collide with this item.

The way collisions are detected is determined by mode. The default value for mode is Qt::IntersectsItemShape ; All items whose shape intersects or is contained by this item's shape are returned.

See also:

QGraphicsScene::collidingItems(), and collidesWithItem().

Specified by:

collidingItems in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

commonAncestorItem

public final QGraphicsItemInterface commonAncestorItem(QGraphicsItemInterface other)

Returns the closest common ancestor item of this item and other, or 0 if either other is 0, or there is no common ancestor.

See also:

isAncestorOf().

Specified by:

commonAncestorItem in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

cursor

public final QCursor cursor()

Returns the current cursor shape for the item. The mouse cursor will assume this shape when it's over this item. See the list of predefined cursor objects for a range of useful shapes.

An editor item might want to use an I-beam cursor:

       item.setCursor(new QCursor(Qt.CursorShape.IBeamCursor));

If no cursor has been set, the parent's cursor is used.

See also:

setCursor(), hasCursor(), unsetCursor(), QWidget::cursor, and QApplication::overrideCursor().

Specified by:

cursor in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

data

public final java.lang.Object data(int key)

Returns this item's custom data for the key key as a QVariant.

Custom item data is useful for storing arbitrary properties in any item. Example:

        int ObjectName = 0;

        QGraphicsItemInterface item = scene.itemAt(100, 50);
        if (item.data(ObjectName).toString().length() == 0) {
            if (item instanceof ButtonItem)
                item.setData(ObjectName, "Button");
        }

Qt does not use this feature for storing data; it is provided solely for the convenience of the user.

See also:

setData().

Specified by:

data in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

deviceTransform

public final QTransform deviceTransform(QTransform viewportTransform)

Returns this item's device transformation matrix, using viewportTransform to map from scene to device coordinates. This matrix can be used to map coordinates and geometrical shapes from this item's local coordinate system to the viewport's (or any device's) coordinate system. To map coordinates from the viewport, you must first invert the returned matrix.

Example:

        QGraphicsRectItem rect = new QGraphicsRectItem();
        rect.setPos(100, 100);

        rect.deviceTransform(view.viewportTransform()).map(new QPointF(0, 0));
        // returns the item's (0, 0) point in view's viewport coordinates

        rect.deviceTransform(view.viewportTransform()).inverted().map(new QPointF(100, 100));
        // returns view's viewport's (100, 100) coordinate in item coordinates

This function is the same as combining this item's scene transform with the view's viewport transform, but it also understands the ItemIgnoresTransformations flag. The device transform can be used to do accurate coordinate mapping (and collision detection) for untransformable items.

See also:

transform(), setTransform(), scenePos(), The Graphics View Coordinate System, and itemTransform().

Specified by:

deviceTransform in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

effectiveOpacity

public final double effectiveOpacity()

Returns this item's effective opacity, which is between 0. (transparent) and 1.0 (opaque). This value is a combination of this item's local opacity, and its parent and ancestors' opacities. The effective opacity decides how the item is rendered.

See also:

opacity(), setOpacity(), paint(), ItemIgnoresParentOpacity , and ItemDoesntPropagateOpacityToChildren .

ensureVisible

public final void ensureVisible(QRectF rect,
                                int xmargin,
                                int ymargin)

If this item is part of a scene that is viewed by a QGraphicsView, this convenience function will attempt to scroll the view to ensure that rect is visible inside the view's viewport. If rect is a null rect (the default), QGraphicsItem will default to the item's bounding rect. xmargin and ymargin are the number of pixels the view should use for margins.

If the specified rect cannot be reached, the contents are scrolled to the nearest valid position.

If this item is not viewed by a QGraphicsView, this function does nothing.

See also:

QGraphicsView::ensureVisible().

Specified by:

ensureVisible in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

ensureVisible

public final void ensureVisible(double x,
                                double y,
                                double w,
                                double h,
                                int xmargin,
                                int ymargin)

This convenience function is equivalent to calling ensureVisible(QRectF(x, y, w, h), xmargin, ymargin):

Specified by:

ensureVisible in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

flags

public final QGraphicsItem.GraphicsItemFlags flags()

Returns this item's flags. The flags describe what configurable features of the item are enabled and not. For example, if the flags include ItemIsFocusable , the item can accept input focus.

By default, no flags are enabled.

See also:

setFlags(), and setFlag().

Specified by:

flags in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

grabKeyboard

public final void grabKeyboard()

Grabs the keyboard input.

The item will receive all keyboard input to the scene until one of the following events occur:

• The item becomes invisible
• The item is removed from the scene
• The item is deleted
• The item calls ungrabKeyboard()
• Another item calls grabKeyboard(); the item will regain the keyboard grab when the other item calls ungrabKeyboard().

When an item gains the keyboard grab, it receives a QEvent::GrabKeyboard event. When it loses the keyboard grab, it receives a QEvent::UngrabKeyboard event. These events can be used to detect when your item gains or loses the keyboard grab through other means than gaining input focus.

It is almost never necessary to explicitly grab the keyboard in Qt, as Qt grabs and releases it sensibly. In particular, Qt grabs the keyboard when your item gains input focus, and releases it when your item loses input focus, or when the item is hidden.

Note that only visible items can grab keyboard input. Calling grabKeyboard() on an invisible item has no effect.

Keyboard events are not affected.

See also:

ungrabKeyboard(), grabMouse(), and setFocus().

Specified by:

grabKeyboard in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

grabMouse

public final void grabMouse()

Grabs the mouse input.

This item will receive all mouse events for the scene until any of the following events occurs:

• The item becomes invisible
• The item is removed from the scene
• The item is deleted
• The item call ungrabMouse()
• Another item calls grabMouse(); the item will regain the mouse grab when the other item calls ungrabMouse().

When an item gains the mouse grab, it receives a QEvent::GrabMouse event. When it loses the mouse grab, it receives a QEvent::UngrabMouse event. These events can be used to detect when your item gains or loses the mouse grab through other means than receiving mouse button events.

It is almost never necessary to explicitly grab the mouse in Qt, as Qt grabs and releases it sensibly. In particular, Qt grabs the mouse when you press a mouse button, and keeps the mouse grabbed until you release the last mouse button. Also, Qt::Popup widgets implicitly call grabMouse() when shown, and ungrabMouse() when hidden.

Note that only visible items can grab mouse input. Calling grabMouse() on an invisible item has no effect.

Keyboard events are not affected.

See also:

QGraphicsScene::mouseGrabberItem(), ungrabMouse(), and grabKeyboard().

grabMouse in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

group

public final QGraphicsItemGroup group()

Returns a pointer to this item's item group, or 0 if this item is not member of a group.

See also:

setGroup(), QGraphicsItemGroup, and QGraphicsScene::createItemGroup().

Specified by:

group in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

handlesChildEvents

public final boolean handlesChildEvents()

Returns true if this item handles child events (i. ., all events intended for any of its children are instead sent to this item); otherwise, false is returned.

This property is useful for item groups; it allows one item to handle events on behalf of its children, as opposed to its children handling their events individually.

The default is to return false; children handle their own events. The exception for this is if the item is a QGraphicsItemGroup, then it defaults to return true.

See also:

setHandlesChildEvents().

Specified by:

handlesChildEvents in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

hasCursor

public final boolean hasCursor()

Returns true if this item has a cursor set; otherwise, false is returned.

By default, items don't have any cursor set. cursor() will return a standard pointing arrow cursor.

See also:

unsetCursor().

Specified by:

hasCursor in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

hasFocus

This convenience function is equivalent to calling setVisible(false).

See also:

show(), and setVisible().

Specified by:

installSceneEventFilter

public final void installSceneEventFilter(QGraphicsItemInterface filterItem)

Installs an event filter for this item on filterItem, causing all events for this item to first pass through filterItem's sceneEventFilter() function.

To filter another item's events, install this item as an event filter for the other item. Example:

        QGraphicsScene scene = new QGraphicsScene();
        QGraphicsEllipseItem ellipse = scene.addEllipse(new QRectF(-10, -10, 20, 20));
        QGraphicsLineItem line = scene.addLine(new QLineF(-10, -10, 20, 20));

        line.installSceneEventFilter(ellipse);
        // line's events are filtered by ellipse's sceneEventFilter() function.

        ellipse.installSceneEventFilter(line);
        // ellipse's events are filtered by line's sceneEventFilter() function.

An item can only filter events for other items in the same scene. Also, an item cannot filter its own events; instead, you can reimplement sceneEvent() directly.

Items must belong to a scene for scene event filters to be installed and used.

removeSceneEventFilter(), sceneEventFilter(), and sceneEvent().

Specified by:

installSceneEventFilter in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

isAncestorOf

isClipped

public final boolean isClipped()

Returns true if this item is clipped. An item is clipped if it has either set the ItemClipsToShape flag, or if it or any of its ancestors has set the ItemClipsChildrenToShape flag.

Clipping affects the item's appearance (i.e., painting), as well as mouse and hover event delivery.

isObscured

public final boolean isObscured()

Returns true if this item's bounding rect is completely obscured by the opaque shape of any of colliding items above it (i. ., with a higher Z value than this item).

Its implementation is based on calling isObscuredBy(), which you can reimplement to provide a custom obscurity algorithm.

See also:

opaqueArea().

isObscured

public final boolean isObscured(QRectF rect)

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience.

See also:

setVisible().

Specified by:

isVisible in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

isVisibleTo

public final boolean isVisibleTo(QGraphicsItemInterface parent)

Returns true if the item is visible to parent; otherwise, false is returned. parent can be 0, in which case this function will return whether the item is visible to the scene or not.

An item may not be visible to its ancestors even if isVisible() is true. If any ancestor is hidden, the item itself will be implicitly hidden, in which case this function will return false.

itemTransform

public final QTransform itemTransform(QGraphicsItemInterface other)

Returns a QTransform that maps coordinates from this item to other. If ok is not null, and if there is no such transform, the boolean pointed to by ok will be set to false; otherwise true.

This transform provides an alternative to the mapToItem() or mapFromItem() functions, by returning the appropriate transform so that you can map shapes and coordinates yourself. It also helps you write more efficient code when repeatedly mapping between the same two items.

Note that in rare circumstances, there is no transform that maps between two items

Returns the pixmap item's offset, which defines the point of the top-left corner of the pixmap, in local coordinates.

See also:

setOffset().

opacity

public final double opacity()

Returns this item's local opacity, which is between 0. (transparent) and 1.0 (opaque). This value is combined with parent and ancestor values into the effectiveOpacity(). The effective opacity decides how the item is rendered.

The opacity property decides the state of the painter passed to the paint() function. If the item is cached (i.e., ItemCoordinateCache or DeviceCoordinateCache ), the effective property will applied to the item's cache as it is rendered.

The default opacity is 1.0; fully opaque.

pos

public final QPointF pos()

Returns the position of the item in parent coordinates. If the item has no parent, its position is given in scene coordinates.

The position of the item describes its origin (local coordinate (0, 0)) in parent coordinates; this function returns the same as mapToParent(0, 0).

For convenience, you can also call scenePos() to determine the item's position in scene coordinates, regardless of its parent.

prepareGeometryChange

public final void prepareGeometryChange()

Prepares the item for a geometry change. Call this function before changing the bounding rect of an item to keep QGraphicsScene's index up to date.

prepareGeometryChange() will call update() if this is necessary.

rotate

public final void rotate(double angle)

Rotates the current item transformation angle degrees clockwise around its origin. To translate around an arbitrary point (x, y), you need to combine translation and rotation with setTransform().

Example:

        // Rotate an item 45 degrees around (0, 0).
        item.rotate(45);

        // Rotate an item 45 degrees around (x, y).

scale

public final void scale(double sx,
                        double sy)

Scales the current item transformation by (sx, sy) around its origin. To scale from an arbitrary point (x, y), you need to combine translation and scaling with setTransform().

Example:

        // Scale an item by 3x2 from its origin
        item.scale(3, 2);

        // Scale an item by 3x2 from (x, y)

Specified by:

scenePos in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

sceneTransform

public final QTransform sceneTransform()

Returns this item's scene transformation matrix. This matrix can be used to map coordinates and geometrical shapes from this item's local coordinate system to the scene's coordinate system. To map coordinates from the scene, you must first invert the returned matrix.

Example:

        QGraphicsRectItem rect = new QGraphicsRectItem();
        rect.setPos(100, 100);

        rect.sceneTransform().map(new QPointF(0, 0));
        // returns QPointF(100, 100);

        rect.sceneTransform().inverted().map(new QPointF(100, 100));
        // returns QPointF(0, 0);

Unlike transform(), which returns only an item's local transformation, this function includes the item's (and any parents') position.

scroll

public final void scroll(double dx,
                         double dy,
                         QRectF rect)

Scrolls the contents of rect by dx, dy. If rect is a null rect (the default), the item's bounding rect is scrolled.

Scrolling provides a fast alternative to simply redrawing when the contents of the item (or parts of the item) are shifted vertically or horizontally. Depending on the current transformation and the capabilities of the paint device (i.e., the viewport), this operation may consist of simply moving pixels from one location to another using memmove(). In most cases this is faster than rerendering the entire area.

After scrolling, the item will issue an update for the newly exposed areas. If scrolling is not supported (e.g., you are rendering to an OpenGL viewport, which does not benefit from scroll optimizations), this function is equivalent to calling update(rect).

boundingRect().

Specified by:

scroll in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setAcceptDrops

public final void setAcceptDrops(boolean on)

If on is true, this item will accept drag and drop events; otherwise, it is transparent for drag and drop events. By default, items do not accept drag and drop events.

See also:

acceptDrops().

Specified by:

setAcceptDrops in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setAcceptHoverEvents

public final void setAcceptHoverEvents(boolean enabled)

If enabled is true, this item will accept hover events; otherwise, it will ignore them. By default, items do not accept hover events.

Hover events are delivered when there is no current mouse grabber item. They are sent when the mouse cursor enters an item, when it moves around inside the item, and when the cursor leaves an item. Hover events are commonly used to highlight an item when it's entered, and for tracking the mouse cursor as it hovers over the item (equivalent to QWidget::mouseTracking).

Parent items receive hover enter events before their children, and leave events after their children. The parent does not receive a hover leave event if the cursor enters a child, though; the parent stays "hovered" until the cursor leaves its area, including its children's areas.

If a parent item handles child events (setHandlesChildEvents()), it will receive hover move, drag move, and drop events as the cursor passes through its children, but it does not receive hover enter and hover leave, nor drag enter and drag leave events on behalf of its children.

A QGraphicsWidget with window decorations will accept hover events regardless of the value of acceptHoverEvents().

See also:

acceptHoverEvents(), hoverEnterEvent(), hoverMoveEvent(), and hoverLeaveEvent().

Specified by:

setAcceptHoverEvents in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setAcceptedMouseButtons

public final void setAcceptedMouseButtons(Qt.MouseButtons buttons)

Sets the mouse buttons that this item accepts mouse events for.

By default, all mouse buttons are accepted. If an item accepts a mouse button, it will become the mouse grabber item when a mouse press event is delivered for that button. However, if the item does not accept the mouse button, QGraphicsScene will forward the mouse events to the first item beneath it that does.

To disable mouse events for an item (i.e., make it transparent for mouse events), call setAcceptedMouseButtons(0).

See also:

acceptedMouseButtons(), and mousePressEvent().

setAcceptedMouseButtons in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setBoundingRegionGranularity

public final void setBoundingRegionGranularity(double granularity)

Sets the bounding region granularity to granularity; a value between and including 0 and 1. The default value is 0 (i.e., the lowest granularity, where the bounding region corresponds to the item's bounding rectangle).

The granularity is used by boundingRegion() to calculate how fine the bounding region of the item should be. The highest achievable granularity is 1, where boundingRegion() will return the finest outline possible for the respective device (e.g., for a QGraphicsView viewport, this gives you a pixel-perfect bounding region). The lowest possible granularity is 0. The value of granularity describes the ratio between device resolution and the resolution of the bounding region (e.g., a value of 0.25 will provide a region where each chunk corresponds to 4x4 device units / pixels).

See also:

boundingRegionGranularity().

Specified by:

setBoundingRegionGranularity in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setCacheMode

public final void setCacheMode(QGraphicsItem.CacheMode mode,
                               QSize cacheSize)

Sets the item's cache mode to mode.

The optional logicalCacheSize argument is used only by ItemCoordinateCache mode, and describes the resolution of the cache buffer; if logicalCacheSize is (100, 100), QGraphicsItem will fit the item into 100x100 pixels in graphics memory, regardless of the logical size of the item itself. By default QGraphicsItem uses the size of boundingRect(). For all other cache modes than ItemCoordinateCache , logicalCacheSize is ignored.

Caching can speed up rendering if your item spends a significant time redrawing itself. In some cases the cache can also slow down rendering, in particular when the item spends less time redrawing than QGraphicsItem spends redrawing from the cache. When enabled, the item's paint() function will be called only once for each call to update(); for any subsequent repaint requests, the Graphics View framework will redraw from the cache. This approach works particularly well with QGLWidget, which stores all the cache as OpenGL textures.

Be aware that QPixmapCache's cache limit may need to be changed to obtain optimal performance.

You can read more about the different cache modes in the CacheMode documentation.

cacheMode(), CacheMode , and QPixmapCache::setCacheLimit().

setCursor

public final void setCursor(QCursor cursor)

Sets the current cursor shape for the item to cursor. The mouse cursor will assume this shape when it's over this item. See the list of predefined cursor objects for a range of useful shapes.

An editor item might want to use an I-beam cursor:

       item.setCursor(new QCursor(Qt.CursorShape.IBeamCursor));

If no cursor has been set, the cursor of the item beneath is used.

setData

public final void setData(int key,
                          java.lang.Object value)

Sets this item's custom data for the key key to value.

Custom item data is useful for storing arbitrary properties for any item. Qt does not use this feature for storing data; it is provided solely for the convenience of the user.

See also:

data().

Specified by:

setData in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setEnabled

public final void setEnabled(boolean enabled)

If enabled is true, the item is enabled; otherwise, it is disabled.

Disabled items are visible, but they do not receive any events, and cannot take focus nor be selected. Mouse events are discarded; they are not propagated unless the item is also invisible, or if it does not accept mouse events (see acceptedMouseButtons()). A disabled item cannot become the mouse grabber, and as a result of this, an item loses the grab if it becomes disabled when grabbing the mouse, just like it loses focus if it had focus when it was disabled.

Disabled items are traditionally drawn using grayed-out colors (see QPalette::Disabled ).

If you disable a parent item, all its children will also be disabled. If you enable a parent item, all children will be enabled, unless they have been explicitly disabled (i.e., if you call setEnabled(false) on a child, it will not be reenabled if its parent is disabled, and then enabled again).

Items are enabled by default.

Note: If you install an event filter, you can still intercept events before they are delivered to items; this mechanism disregards the item's enabled state.

isEnabled().

setEnabled in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setFlag

public final void setFlag(QGraphicsItem.GraphicsItemFlag flag,
                          boolean enabled)

If enabled is true, the item flag flag is enabled; otherwise, it is disabled.

See also:

flags(), and setFlags().

Specified by:

setFlag in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setFlags

public final void setFlags(QGraphicsItem.GraphicsItemFlags flags)

Sets the item flags to flags. All flags in flags are enabled; all flags not in flags are disabled.

If the item had focus and flags does not enable ItemIsFocusable , the item loses focus as a result of calling this function. Similarly, if the item was selected, and flags does not enabled ItemIsSelectable , the item is automatically unselected.

By default, no flags are enabled.

See also:

flags(), and setFlag().

Specified by:

setFlags in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setFocus

public final void setFocus(Qt.FocusReason focusReason)

Gives keyboard input focus to this item. The focusReason argument will be passed into any focus event generated by this function; it is used to give an explanation of what caused the item to get focus.

Only items that set the ItemIsFocusable flag can accept keyboard focus.

If this item is not visible (i.e., isVisible() returns false), not enabled, not associated with a scene, or if it already has input focus, this function will do nothing.

As a result of calling this function, this item will receive a focus in event with focusReason. If another item already has focus, that item will first receive a focus out event indicating that it has lost input focus.

See also:

clearFocus(), and hasFocus().

Specified by:

setFocus in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setGroup

public final void setGroup(QGraphicsItemGroup group)

Adds this item to the item group group. If group is 0, this item is removed from any current group and added as a child of the previous group's parent.

See also:

setHandlesChildEvents

public final void setHandlesChildEvents(boolean enabled)

If enabled is true, this item is set to handle all events for all its children (i. ., all events intented for any of its children are instead sent to this item); otherwise, if enabled is false, this item will only handle its own events. The default value is false.

This property is useful for item groups; it allows one item to handle events on behalf of its children, as opposed to its children handling their events individually.

If a child item accepts hover events, its parent will receive hover move events as the cursor passes through the child, but it does not receive hover enter and hover leave events on behalf of its child.

handlesChildEvents().

Specified by:

Sets this item's local opacity, between 0. (transparent) and 1.0 (opaque). The item's local opacity is combined with parent and ancestor opacities into the effectiveOpacity().

By default, opacity propagates from parent to child, so if a parent's opacity is 0.5 and the child is also 0.5, the child's effective opacity will be 0.25. The result

The opacity property decides the state of the painter passed to the paint() function. If the item is cached (i.e., ItemCoordinateCache or DeviceCoordinateCache ), the effective property will applied to the item's cache as it is rendered.

There are two item flags that affect how the item's opacity is combined with the parent: ItemIgnoresParentOpacity and ItemDoesntPropagateOpacityToChildren .

opacity(), and effectiveOpacity().

setOpacity in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setParentItem

public final void setParentItem(QGraphicsItemInterface parent)

Sets this item's parent item to parent. If this item already has a parent, it is first removed from the previous parent. If parent is 0, this item will become a top-level item.

parentItem(), and children().

Specified by:

setParentItem in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setPixmap

public final void setPixmap(QPixmap pixmap)

Sets the item's pixmap to pixmap.

See also:

pixmap().

setPos

public final void setPos(QPointF pos)

Sets the position of the item to pos, which is in parent coordinates. For items with no parent, pos is in scene coordinates.

The position of the item describes its origin (local coordinate (0, 0)) in parent coordinates.

See also:

pos(), scenePos(), and The Graphics View Coordinate System.

Specified by:

setPos in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setPos

public final void setPos(double x,
                         double y)

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience.

This convenience function is equivalent to calling setPos(QPointF(x, y)).

Specified by:

setPos in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setSelected

public final void setSelected(boolean selected)

If selected is true and this item is selectable, this item is selected; otherwise, it is unselected.

If the item is in a group, the whole group's selected state is toggled by this function. If the group is selected, all items in the group are also selected, and if the group is not selected, no item in the group is selected.

Only visible, enabled, selectable items can be selected. If selected is true and this item is either invisible or disabled or unselectable, this function does nothing.

By default, items cannot be selected. To enable selection, set the ItemIsSelectable flag.

This function is provided for convenience, allowing individual toggling of the selected state of an item. However, a more common way of selecting items is to call QGraphicsScene::setSelectionArea(), which will call this function for all visible, enabled, and selectable items within a specified area on the scene.

See also:

isSelected(), and QGraphicsScene::selectedItems().

Specified by:

setSelected in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setShapeMode

public final void setShapeMode(QGraphicsPixmapItem.ShapeMode mode)

Sets the item's shape mode to mode. The shape mode describes how QGraphicsPixmapItem calculates its shape. The default mode is MaskShape .

See also:

shapeMode(), and ShapeMode .

setToolTip

public final void setToolTip(java.lang.String toolTip)

Sets the item's tool tip to toolTip. If toolTip is empty, the item's tool tip is cleared.

See also:

toolTip(), and QToolTip.

Specified by:

setToolTip in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setTransform

public final void setTransform(QTransform matrix,
                               boolean combine)

Sets the item's current transformation matrix to matrix.

If combine is true, then matrix is combined with the current matrix; otherwise, matrixreplaces the current matrix. combine is false by default.

To simplify interation with items using a transformed view, QGraphicsItem provides mapTo... and mapFrom... functions that can translate between items' and the scene's coordinates. For example, you can call mapToScene() to map an item coordiate to a scene coordinate, or mapFromScene() to map from scene coordinates to item coordinates.

See also:

transform(), rotate(), scale(), shear(), translate(), and The Graphics View Coordinate System.

Specified by:

setTransform in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setTransformationMode

public final void setTransformationMode(Qt.TransformationMode mode)

Sets the pixmap item's transformation mode to mode, and toggles an update of the item. The default mode is Qt::FastTransformation , which provides quick transformation with no smoothing.

Qt::SmoothTransformation enables QPainter::SmoothPixmapTransform on the painter, and the quality depends on the platform and viewport. The result is usually not as good as calling QPixmap::scale() directly.

See also:

transformationMode().

setVisible

public final void setVisible(boolean visible)

If visible is true, the item is made visible. Otherwise, the item is made invisible. Invisible items are not painted, nor do they receive any events. In particular, mouse events pass right through invisible items, and are delivered to any item that may be behind. Invisible items are also unselectable, they cannot take input focus, and are not detected by QGraphicsScene's item location functions.

If an item becomes invisible while grabbing the mouse, (i.e., while it is receiving mouse events,) it will automatically lose the mouse grab, and the grab is not regained by making the item visible again; it must receive a new mouse press to regain the mouse grab.

Similarly, an invisible item cannot have focus, so if the item has focus when it becomes invisible, it will lose focus, and the focus is not regained by simply making the item visible again.

If you hide a parent item, all its children will also be hidden. If you show a parent item, all children will be shown, unless they have been explicitly hidden (i.e., if you call setVisible(false) on a child, it will not be reshown even if its parent is hidden, and then shown again).

Items are visible by default; it is unnecessary to call setVisible() on a new item.

See also:

isVisible(), show(), and hide().

Specified by:

setVisible in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

setZValue

public final void setZValue(double z)

Sets the Z-value, or the elevation, of the item, to z. The elevation decides the stacking order of sibling (neighboring) items. An item of high Z-value will be drawn on top of an item with a lower Z-value if they share the same parent item. In addition, children of an item will always be drawn on top of the parent, regardless of the child's Z-value. Sibling items that share the same Z-value will be drawn in an undefined order, although the order will stay the same for as long as the items live.

Children of different parents are stacked according to the Z-value of each item's ancestor item which is an immediate child of the two items' closest common ancestor. For example, a robot item might define a torso item as the parent of a head item, two arm items, and two upper-leg items. The upper-leg items would each be parents of one lower-leg item, and each lower-leg item would be parents of one foot item. The stacking order of the feet is the same as the stacking order of each foot's ancestor that is an immediate child of the two feet's common ancestor (i.e., the torso item); so the feet are stacked in the same order as the upper-leg items, regardless of each foot's Z-value.

The Z-value does not affect the item's size in any way.

The default Z-value is 0.

zValue().

shapeMode

public final QGraphicsPixmapItem.ShapeMode shapeMode()

Returns the item's shape mode. The shape mode describes how QGraphicsPixmapItem calculates its shape. The default mode is MaskShape .

topLevelItem

public final QGraphicsItemInterface topLevelItem()

Returns this item's top-level item. The top-level item is the item's topmost ancestor item whose parent is 0. If an item has no parent, its own pointer is returned (i.e., a top-level item is its own top-level item).

See also:

parentItem().

Specified by:

topLevelItem in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

topLevelWidget

public final QGraphicsWidget topLevelWidget()

Returns a pointer to the item's top level widget (i.e., the item's ancestor whose parent is 0, or whose parent is not a widget), or 0 if this item does not have a top level widget. If the item is its own top level widget, this function returns a pointer to the item itself.

Specified by:

topLevelWidget in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

transform

public final QTransform transform()

Returns this item's transformation matrix. If no matrix has been set, the identity matrix is returned.

See also:

setTransform(), and sceneTransform().

transformationMode

public final Qt.TransformationMode transformationMode()

Returns the transformation mode of the pixmap. The default mode is Qt::FastTransformation , which provides quick transformation with no smoothing.

See also:

setTransformationMode().

translate

public final void translate(double dx,
                            double dy)

Translates the current item transformation by (dx, dy).

If all you want is to move an item, you should call moveBy() or setPos() instead; this function changes the item's translation, which is conceptually separate from its position.

update

public final void update(QRectF rect)

Schedules a redraw of the area covered by rect in this item. You can call this function whenever your item needs to be redrawn, such as if it changes appearance or size.

This function does not cause an immediate paint; instead it schedules a paint request that is processed by QGraphicsView after control reaches the event loop. The item will only be redrawn if it is visible in any associated view.

As a side effect of the item being repainted, other items that overlap the area rect may also be repainted.

If the item is invisible (i.e., isVisible() returns false), this function does nothing.

update

public final void update(double x,
                         double y,
                         double width,
                         double height)

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience.

This convenience function is equivalent to calling update(QRectF(x, y, width, height)).

Specified by:

update in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

window

public final QGraphicsWidget window()

Returns the item's window, or 0 if this item does not have a window. If the item is a window, it will return itself. Otherwise it will return the closest ancestor that is a window.

Returns the Z-value, or the elevation, of the item. The Z-value decides the stacking order of sibling (neighboring) items.

The default Z-value is 0.

See also:

setZValue().

Specified by:

zValue in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

advance

public void advance(int phase)

This virtual function is called twice for all items by the QGraphicsScene::advance() slot. In the first phase, all items are called with phase == 0, indicating that items on the scene are about to advance, and then all items are called with phase == 1. Reimplement this function to update your item if you need simple scene-controlled animation.

The default implementation does nothing.

For individual item animation, an alternative to this function is to either use QGraphicsItemAnimation, or to multiple-inherit from QObject and QGraphicsItem, and animate your item using QObject::startTimer() and QObject::timerEvent().

See also:

QGraphicsItemAnimation, and QTimeLine.

Specified by:

advance in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

boundingRect

public QRectF boundingRect()

This pure virtual function defines the outer bounds of the item as a rectangle; all painting must be restricted to inside an item's bounding rect. QGraphicsView uses this to determine whether the item requires redrawing.

Although the item's shape can be arbitrary, the bounding rect is always rectangular, and it is unaffected by the items' transformation (scale(), rotate(), etc.).

If you want to change the item's bounding rectangle, you must first call prepareGeometryChange(). This notifies the scene of the imminent change, so that its can update its item geometry index; otherwise, the scene will be unaware of the item's new geometry, and the results are undefined (typically, rendering artifacts are left around in the view).

Reimplement this function to let QGraphicsView determine what parts of the widget, if any, need to be redrawn.

Note: For shapes that paint an outline / stroke, it is important to include half the pen width in the bounding rect. It is not necessary to compensate for antialiasing, though.

Example:

    public class CircleItem extends QGraphicsItem
    {
        // ...
        public QRectF boundingRect() {
            double penWidth = 1;
            return new QRectF(-radius - penWidth / 2, -radius - penWidth / 2,
                          diameter + penWidth, diameter + penWidth);
        }
      // ...
    }

collidesWithItem

public boolean collidesWithItem(QGraphicsItemInterface other,
                                Qt.ItemSelectionMode mode)

Returns true if this item collides with other; otherwise returns false. The ways items collide is determined by mode. The default value for mode is Qt::IntersectsItemShape ; other collides with this item if it either intersects, contains, or is contained by this item's shape.

The default implementation is based on shape intersection, and it calls shape() on both items. Because the complexity of arbitrary shape-shape intersection grows with an order of magnitude when the shapes are complex, this operation can be noticably time consuming. You have the option of reimplementing this function in a subclass of QGraphicsItem to provide a custom algorithm. This allows you to make use of natural constraints in the shapes of your own items, in order to improve the performance of the collision detection. For instance, two untransformed perfectly circular items' collision can be determined very efficiently by comparing their positions and radii.

Keep in mind that when reimplementing this function and calling shape() or boundingRect() on other, the returned coordinates must be mapped to this item's coordinate system before any intersection can take place.

contains(), and shape().

collidesWithItem in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

collidesWithPath

public boolean collidesWithPath(QPainterPath path,
                                Qt.ItemSelectionMode mode)

Returns true if this item collides with path.

The collision is determined by mode. The default value for mode is Qt::IntersectsItemShape ; path collides with this item if it either intersects, contains, or is contained by this item's shape.

See also:

collidesWithItem(), contains(), and shape().

Specified by:

collidesWithPath in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

contains

public boolean contains(QPointF point)

Returns true if this item contains point, which is in local coordinates; otherwise, false is returned. It is most often called from QGraphicsView to determine what item is under the cursor, and for that reason, the implementation of this function should be as light-weight as possible.

By default, this function calls shape(), but you can reimplement it in a subclass to provide a (perhaps more efficient) implementation.

shape(), boundingRect(), and collidesWithPath().

Specified by:

contains in interface QGraphicsItemInterface

contextMenuEvent

public void contextMenuEvent(QGraphicsSceneContextMenuEvent event)

This event handler can be reimplemented in a subclass to process context menu events. The event parameter contains details about the event to be handled.

If you ignore the event, (i.e., by calling QEvent::ignore(),) event will propagate to any item beneath this item. If no items accept the event, it will be ignored by the scene, and propagate to the view.

It's common to open a QMenu in response to receiving a context menu event. Example:

        public class CutsomItem extends QGraphicsItem
        {
            // ...
            public void contextMenuEvent(QGraphicsSceneContextMenuEvent event) {
                QMenu menu = new QMenu();
                QAction emoveAction = menu.addAction("Remove");
                QAction arkAction = menu.addAction("Mark");
                QAction electedAction = menu.exec(event.screenPos());
                // ...
            }
            // ...
        }

The default implementation ignores the event.

dragEnterEvent

public void dragEnterEvent(QGraphicsSceneDragDropEvent event)

This event handler, for event event, can be reimplemented to receive drag enter events for this item. Drag enter events are generated as the cursor enters the item's area.

By accepting the event, (i.e., by calling QEvent::accept(),) the item will accept drop events, in addition to receiving drag move and drag leave. Otherwise, the event will be ignored and propagate to the item beneath. If the event is accepted, the item will receive a drag move event before control goes back to the event loop.

A common implementation of dragEnterEvent accepts or ignores event depending on the associated mime data in event. Example:

        public class CutsomItem extends QGraphicsItem
        {
            public CutsomItem()
            {
                setAcceptDrops(true);
                // ...
            }

            public void dragEnterEvent(QGraphicsSceneDragDropEvent event)
            {
                event.setAccepted(event.mimeData().hasFormat("text/plain"));
            }
            // ...
        }

Items do not receive drag and drop events by default; to enable this feature, call setAcceptDrops(true).

The default implementation does nothing.

dragLeaveEvent

public void dragLeaveEvent(QGraphicsSceneDragDropEvent event)

This event handler, for event event, can be reimplemented to receive drag leave events for this item. Drag leave events are generated as the cursor leaves the item's area. Most often you will not need to reimplement this function, but it can be useful for resetting state in your item (e.g., highlighting).

Calling QEvent::ignore() or QEvent::accept() on event has no effect.

dragMoveEvent

public void dragMoveEvent(QGraphicsSceneDragDropEvent event)

This event handler, for event event, can be reimplemented to receive drag move events for this item. Drag move events are generated as the cursor moves around inside the item's area. Most often you will not need to reimplement this function; it is used to indicate that only parts of the item can accept drops.

Calling QEvent::ignore() or QEvent::accept() on event toggles whether or not the item will accept drops at the position from the event. By default, event is accepted, indicating that the item allows drops at the specified position.

Items do not receive drag and drop events by default; to enable this feature, call setAcceptDrops(true).

isObscuredBy

public boolean isObscuredBy(QGraphicsItemInterface item)

Returns true if this item's bounding rect is completely obscured by the opaque shape of item.

The base implementation maps item's opaqueArea() to this item's coordinate system, and then checks if this item's boundingRect() is fully contained within the mapped shape.

You can reimplement this function to provide a custom algorithm for determining whether this item is obscured by item.

itemChange

public java.lang.Object itemChange(QGraphicsItem.GraphicsItemChange change,
                                   java.lang.Object value)

This virtual function is called by QGraphicsItem to notify custom items that some part of the item's state changes. By reimplementing this function, your can react to a change, and in some cases, (depending on change,) adjustments can be made.

change is the parameter of the item that is changing. value is the new value; the type of the value depends on change.

Example:

            public Object itemChange(GraphicsItemChange change, Object value)
            {
                if (change == GraphicsItemChange.ItemPositionChange && scene() != null) {
                    // value is the new position.
                    QPointF newPos = (QPointF)value;
                    QRectF rect = scene().sceneRect();
                    if (!rect.contains(newPos)) {
                        // Keep the item inside the scene rect.
                        newPos.setX(Math.min(rect.right(), Math.max(newPos.x(), rect.left())));
                        newPos.setY(Math.min(rect.bottom(), Math.max(newPos.y(), rect.top())));
                        return newPos;
                    }
                }

                return super.itemChange(change, value);
            }

The default implementation does nothing, and returns value.

keyPressEvent

public void keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent event)

This event handler, for event event, can be reimplemented to receive key press events for this item. The default implementation ignores the event. If you reimplement this handler, the event will by default be accepted.

Note that key events are only received for items that set the ItemIsFocusable flag, and that have keyboard input focus.

mouseDoubleClickEvent

public void mouseDoubleClickEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent event)

This event handler, for event event, can be reimplemented to receive mouse doubleclick events for this item.

When doubleclicking an item, the item will first receive a mouse press event, followed by a release event (i.e., a click), then a doubleclick event, and finally a release event.

Calling QEvent::ignore() or QEvent::accept() on event has no effect.

The default implementation calls mousePressEvent(). If you want to keep the base implementation when reimplementing this function, call QGraphicsItem::mouseDoubleClickEvent() in your reimplementation.

Note that an item will not receive double click events if it is neither selectable nor movable (single mouse clicks are ignored in this case, and that stops the generation of double clicks).

mouseMoveEvent

public void mouseMoveEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent event)

This event handler, for event event, can be reimplemented to receive mouse move events for this item. If you do receive this event, you can be certain that this item also received a mouse press event, and that this item is the current mouse grabber.

Calling QEvent::ignore() or QEvent::accept() on event has no effect.

The default implementation handles basic item interaction, such as selection and moving. If you want to keep the base implementation when reimplementing this function, call QGraphicsItem::mouseMoveEvent() in your reimplementation.

Please note that mousePressEvent() decides which graphics item it is that receives mouse events. See the mousePressEvent() description for details.

mousePressEvent

public void mousePressEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent event)

This event handler, for event event, can be reimplemented to receive mouse press events for this item. Mouse press events are only delivered to items that accept the mouse button that is pressed. By default, an item accepts all mouse buttons, but you can change this by calling setAcceptedMouseButtons().

The mouse press event decides which item should become the mouse grabber (see QGraphicsScene::mouseGrabberItem()). If you do not reimplement this function, the press event will propagate to any topmost item beneath this item, and no other mouse events will be delivered to this item.

If you do reimplement this function, event will by default be accepted (see QEvent::accept()), and this item is then the mouse grabber. This allows the item to receive future move, release and doubleclick events. If you call QEvent::ignore() on event, this item will lose the mouse grab, and event will propagate to any topmost item beneath. No further mouse events will be delivered to this item unless a new mouse press event is received.

The default implementation handles basic item interaction, such as selection and moving. If you want to keep the base implementation when reimplementing this function, call QGraphicsItem::mousePressEvent() in your reimplementation.

The event is QEvent::ignore()d for items that are neither movable nor selectable .

mouseReleaseEvent

public void mouseReleaseEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent event)

This event handler, for event event, can be reimplemented to receive mouse release events for this item.

Calling QEvent::ignore() or QEvent::accept() on event has no effect.

The default implementation handles basic item interaction, such as selection and moving. If you want to keep the base implementation when reimplementing this function, call QGraphicsItem::mouseReleaseEvent() in your reimplementation.

Please note that mousePressEvent() decides which graphics item it is that receives mouse events. See the mousePressEvent() description for details.

opaqueArea

public QPainterPath opaqueArea()

This virtual function returns a shape representing the area where this item is opaque. An area is opaque if it is filled using an opaque brush or color (i.e., not transparent).

This function is used by isObscuredBy(), which is called by underlying items to determine if they are obscured by this item.

The default implementation returns an empty QPainterPath, indicating that this item is completely transparent and does not obscure any other items.

isObscuredBy(), isObscured(), and shape().

paint

public void paint(QPainter painter,
                  QStyleOptionGraphicsItem option,
                  QWidget widget)

This function, which is usually called by QGraphicsView, paints the contents of an item in local coordinates.

Reimplement this function in a QGraphicsItem subclass to provide the item's painting implementation, using painter. The option parameter provides style options for the item, such as its state, exposed area and its level-of-detail hints. The widget argument is optional. If provided, it points to the widget that is being painted on; otherwise, it is 0. For cached painting, widget is always 0.

    public class RoundRectItem extends QGraphicsItem
    {
        // ...
        public void paint(QPainter painter,
                QStyleOptionGraphicsItem option,
                QWidget widget) {
            painter.drawRoundRect(-10, -10, 20, 20, 5, 5);
            }
        // ...
    }

The painter's pen is 0-width by default, and its pen is initialized to the QPalette::Text brush from the paint device's palette. The brush is initialized to QPalette::Window .

Make sure to constrain all painting inside the boundaries of boundingRect() to avoid rendering artifacts (as QGraphicsView does not clip the painter for you). In particular, when QPainter renders the outline of a shape using an assigned QPen, half of the outline will be drawn outside, and half inside, the shape you're rendering (e.g., with a pen width of 2 units, you must draw outlines 1 unit inside boundingRect()). QGraphicsItem does not support use of cosmetic pens with a non-zero width.

All painting is done in local coordinates.

sceneEvent

public boolean sceneEvent(QEvent event)

This virtual function receives events to this item. Reimplement this function to intercept events before they are dispatched to the specialized event handlers contextMenuEvent(), focusInEvent(), focusOutEvent(), hoverEnterEvent(), hoverMoveEvent(), hoverLeaveEvent(), keyPressEvent(), keyReleaseEvent(), mousePressEvent(), mouseReleaseEvent(), mouseMoveEvent(), and mouseDoubleClickEvent().

Returns true if the event was recognized and handled; otherwise, (e.g., if the event type was not recognized,) false is returned.

event is the intercepted event.

sceneEventFilter

public boolean sceneEventFilter(QGraphicsItemInterface watched,
                                QEvent event)

Filters events for the item watched. event is the filtered event.

Reimplementing this function in a subclass makes it possible for the item to be used as an event filter for other items, intercepting all the events send to those items before they are able to respond.

Reimplementations must return true to prevent further processing of a given event, ensuring that it will not be delivered to the watched item, or return false to indicate that the event should be propagated further by the event system.

shape

public QPainterPath shape()

Returns the shape of this item as a QPainterPath in local coordinates. The shape is used for many things, including collision detection, hit tests, and for the QGraphicsScene::items() functions.

The default implementation calls boundingRect() to return a simple rectangular shape, but subclasses can reimplement this function to return a more accurate shape for non-rectangular items. For example, a round item may choose to return an elliptic shape for better collision detection. For example:

    public class RoundItem extends QGraphicsItem
    {
        // ...
        public QPainterPath shape() {
            QPainterPath path = new QPainterPath();
            path.addEllipse(boundingRect());
            return path;
        }
        // ...
    }

The outline of a shape can vary depending on the width and style of the pen used when drawing. If you want to include this outline in the item's shape, you can create a shape from the stroke using QPainterPathStroker.

This function is called by the default implementations of contains() and collidesWithPath().

type

public int type()

Returns the type of an item as an int. All standard graphicsitem classes are associated with a unique value; see QGraphicsItem::Type. This type information is used by qgraphicsitem_cast() to distinguish between types.

The default implementation (in QGraphicsItem) returns UserType.

To enable use of qgraphicsitem_cast() with a custom item, reimplement this function and declare a Type enum value equal to your custom item's type. Custom items must return a value larger than or equal to UserType (65536).

wheelEvent

public void wheelEvent(QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent event)

This event handler, for event event, can be reimplemented to receive wheel events for this item. If you reimplement this function, event will be accepted by default.

If you ignore the event, (i.e., by calling QEvent::ignore(),) it will propagate to any item beneath this item. If no items accept the event, it will be ignored by the scene, and propagate to the view (e.g., the view's vertical scroll bar).

The default implementation ignores the event.
