QStylePainter extends QPainter with a set of high-level draw...() functions implemented on top of QStyle ‘s API. The advantage of using QStylePainter is that the parameter lists get considerably shorter. Whereas a QStyle object must be able to draw on any widget using any painter (because the application normally has one QStyle object shared by all widget), a QStylePainter is initialized with a widget, eliminating the need to specify the QWidget , the QPainter, and the QStyle for every function call.

Example using QStyle directly:

def paintEvent(self, */):

    painter = QPainter(self)
    option = QStyleOptionFocusRect()
    option.initFrom(self)
    option.backgroundColor = palette().color(QPalette.Background)
    style().drawPrimitive(QStyle.PE_FrameFocusRect, option, painter, self)

Example using QStylePainter :

def paintEvent(self, */):
painter = QStylePainter(self)
option = QStyleOptionFocusRect()
option.initFrom(self)
option.backgroundColor = palette().color(QPalette.Background)
painter.drawPrimitive(QStyle.PE_FrameFocusRect, option)
