Synopsis

Functions

Detailed Description

QGraphicsView inherits the drag and drop functionality provided by QWidget . When it receives a drag and drop event, it translates it to a QGraphicsSceneDragDropEvent .

QGraphicsSceneDragDropEvent stores events of type GraphicsSceneDragEnter, GraphicsSceneDragLeave, GraphicsSceneDragMove, or GraphicsSceneDrop.

QGraphicsSceneDragDropEvent contains the position of the mouse cursor in both item, scene, and screen coordinates; this can be retrieved with pos() , scenePos() , and screenPos() .

The scene sends the event to the first QGraphicsItem under the mouse cursor that accepts drops; a graphics item is set to accept drops with setAcceptDrops() .
