def begin (pd, w)
def begin (w)
def drawComplexControl (cc, opt)

def drawItemPixmap (r, flags, pixmap)
def drawItemText (r, flags, pal, enabled, text[, textRole=QPalette.NoRole])
def drawPrimitive (pe, opt)
def style ()

Detailed Description¶

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)

    style().drawPrimitive(QStyle.PE_FrameFocusRect, option, painter, self)

Example using QStylePainter :

def paintEvent(self, */):        {        painter = QStylePainter(self)

painter.drawPrimitive(QStyle.PE_FrameFocusRect, option)
