The QRegion class specifies a clip region for a painter.
<p> 

<p> QRegion is used with <a href="qpainter.html#setClipRegion">QPainter::setClipRegion</a>() to limit the paint
area to what needs to be painted. There is also a
<a href="qwidget.html#repaint">QWidget::repaint</a>() that takes a QRegion parameter. QRegion is the
best tool for reducing flicker.
<p> A region can be created from a rectangle, an ellipse, a polygon or
a bitmap. Complex regions may be created by combining simple
regions using <a href="#unite">unite</a>(), <a href="#intersect">intersect</a>(), <a href="#subtract">subtract</a>() or <a href="#eor">eor</a>() (exclusive
or). You can move a region using <a href="#translate">translate</a>().
<p> You can test whether a region <a href="#isNull">isNull</a>(), <a href="#isEmpty">isEmpty</a>() or if it
<a href="#contains">contains</a>() a <a href="qpoint.html">QPoint</a> or <a href="qrect.html">QRect</a>. The bounding rectangle is given by
<a href="#boundingRect">boundingRect</a>().
<p> The function <a href="#rects">rects</a>() gives a decomposition of the region into
rectangles.
<p> Example of using complex regions:
<pre>
        void MyWidget::paintEvent( <a href="qpaintevent.html">QPaintEvent</a> * )
        {
            <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a> p;                         // our painter
            QRegion r1( QRect(100,100,200,80),  // r1 = elliptic region
                        QRegion::<a href="#RegionType-enum">Ellipse</a> );
            QRegion r2( QRect(100,120,90,30) ); // r2 = rectangular region
            QRegion r3 = r1.<a href="#intersect">intersect</a>( r2 );    // r3 = intersection
            p.<a href="qpainter.html#begin">begin</a>( this );                    // start painting widget
            p.<a href="qpainter.html#setClipRegion">setClipRegion</a>( r3 );              // set clip region
            ...                                 // paint clipped graphics
            p.<a href="qpainter.html#end">end</a>();                            // painting done
        }
    </pre>
 
<p> QRegion is an <a href="shclass.html">implicitly shared</a> class.
<p> <b>Warning:</b> Due to window system limitations, the whole coordinate
space for a region is limited to the points between -32767 and
32767 on Mac OS X and Windows 95/98/ME.
<p> <p>See also <a href="qpainter.html#setClipRegion">QPainter::setClipRegion</a>(), <a href="qpainter.html#setClipRect">QPainter::setClipRect</a>(), <a href="graphics.html">Graphics Classes</a>, and <a href="images.html">Image Processing Classes</a>.

<hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="RegionType-enum"></a>QRegion::RegionType</h3>

<p> Specifies the shape of the region to be created.
<ul>
<li><tt>QRegion::Rectangle</tt> - the region covers the entire rectangle.
<li><tt>QRegion::Ellipse</tt> - the region is an ellipse inside the rectangle.
</ul>
<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="QRegion"></a>QRegion::QRegion ()
</h3>
Constructs a null region.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#isNull">isNull</a>().

<h3 class=fn><a name="QRegion-2"></a>QRegion::QRegion ( int&nbsp;x, int&nbsp;y, int&nbsp;w, int&nbsp;h, <a href="qregion.html#RegionType-enum">RegionType</a>&nbsp;t = Rectangle )
</h3>
Constructs a rectangular or elliptic region.
<p> If <em>t</em> is <a href="#RegionType-enum">Rectangle</a>, the region is the filled rectangle (<em>x</em>,
<em>y</em>, <em>w</em>, <em>h</em>). If <em>t</em> is <a href="#RegionType-enum">Ellipse</a>, the region is the filled
ellipse with center at (<em>x</em> + <em>w</em> / 2, <em>y</em> + <em>h</em> / 2) and size
(<em>w</em> ,<em>h</em> ).

<h3 class=fn><a name="QRegion-3"></a>QRegion::QRegion ( const&nbsp;<a href="qrect.html">QRect</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;r, <a href="qregion.html#RegionType-enum">RegionType</a>&nbsp;t = Rectangle )
</h3>
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
<p> Create a region based on the rectange <em>r</em> with region type <em>t</em>.
<p> If the rectangle is invalid a null region will be created.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#RegionType-enum">QRegion::RegionType</a>.

<h3 class=fn><a name="QRegion-4"></a>QRegion::QRegion ( const&nbsp;<a href="qpointarray.html">QPointArray</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;a, bool&nbsp;winding = FALSE )
</h3>
Constructs a polygon region from the point array <em>a</em>.
<p> If <em>winding</em> is TRUE, the polygon region is filled using the
winding algorithm, otherwise the default even-odd fill algorithm
is used.
<p> This constructor may create complex regions that will slow down
painting when used.

<h3 class=fn><a name="QRegion-5"></a>QRegion::QRegion ( const&nbsp;<a href="qregion.html">QRegion</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;r )
</h3>
Constructs a new region which is equal to region <em>r</em>.

<h3 class=fn><a name="QRegion-6"></a>QRegion::QRegion ( const&nbsp;<a href="qbitmap.html">QBitmap</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;bm )
</h3>
Constructs a region from the bitmap <em>bm</em>.
<p> The resulting region consists of the pixels in bitmap <em>bm</em> that
are <tt>color1</tt>, as if each pixel was a 1 by 1 rectangle.
<p> This constructor may create complex regions that will slow down
painting when used. Note that drawing masked pixmaps can be done
much faster using <a href="qpixmap.html#setMask">QPixmap::setMask</a>().

<h3 class=fn><a name="~QRegion"></a>QRegion::~QRegion ()
</h3>
Destroys the region.

<h3 class=fn><a href="qrect.html">QRect</a> <a name="boundingRect"></a>QRegion::boundingRect () const
</h3>
Returns the bounding rectangle of this region. An empty region
gives a rectangle that is <a href="qrect.html#isNull">QRect::isNull</a>().

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="contains"></a>QRegion::contains ( const&nbsp;<a href="qpoint.html">QPoint</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;p ) const
</h3>
Returns TRUE if the region contains the point <em>p</em>; otherwise
returns FALSE.

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="contains-2"></a>QRegion::contains ( const&nbsp;<a href="qrect.html">QRect</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;r ) const
</h3>
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
<p> Returns TRUE if the region overlaps the rectangle <em>r</em>; otherwise
returns FALSE.

<h3 class=fn><a href="qregion.html">QRegion</a> <a name="eor"></a>QRegion::eor ( const&nbsp;<a href="qregion.html">QRegion</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;r ) const
</h3>
Returns a region which is the exclusive or (XOR) of this region
and <em>r</em>.
<p> <center><img src="rxor.png" alt="Region XORed"></center> 
<p> The figure shows the exclusive or of two elliptical regions.

<h3 class=fn>HRGN <a name="handle"></a>QRegion::handle () const
</h3>

<p> Returns the region's handle.

<h3 class=fn><a href="qregion.html">QRegion</a> <a name="intersect"></a>QRegion::intersect ( const&nbsp;<a href="qregion.html">QRegion</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;r ) const
</h3>
Returns a region which is the intersection of this region and <em>r</em>.
<p> <center><img src="rintersect.png" alt="Region Intersection"></center> 
<p> The figure shows the intersection of two elliptical regions.

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="isEmpty"></a>QRegion::isEmpty () const
</h3>
Returns TRUE if the region is empty; otherwise returns FALSE. An
empty region is a region that contains no points.
<p> Example:
<pre>
        QRegion r1( 10, 10, 20, 20 );
        QRegion r2( 40, 40, 20, 20 );
        QRegion r3;
        r1.<a href="#isNull">isNull</a>();             // FALSE
        r1.<a href="#isEmpty">isEmpty</a>();            // FALSE
        r3.<a href="#isNull">isNull</a>();             // TRUE
        r3.<a href="#isEmpty">isEmpty</a>();            // TRUE
        r3 = r1.<a href="#intersect">intersect</a>( r2 ); // r3 = intersection of r1 and r2
        r3.<a href="#isNull">isNull</a>();             // FALSE
        r3.<a href="#isEmpty">isEmpty</a>();            // TRUE
        r3 = r1.<a href="#unite">unite</a>( r2 );     // r3 = union of r1 and r2
        r3.<a href="#isNull">isNull</a>();             // FALSE
        r3.<a href="#isEmpty">isEmpty</a>();            // FALSE
    </pre>
 
<p> <p>See also <a href="#isNull">isNull</a>().

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="isNull"></a>QRegion::isNull () const
</h3>
Returns TRUE if the region is a null region; otherwise returns
FALSE.
<p> A null region is a region that has not been initialized. A null
region is always empty.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#isEmpty">isEmpty</a>().

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="operator!-eq"></a>QRegion::operator!= ( const&nbsp;<a href="qregion.html">QRegion</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;r ) const
</h3>

<p> Returns TRUE if the region is different from <em>r</em>; otherwise
returns FALSE.

<h3 class=fn>const&nbsp;<a href="qregion.html">QRegion</a> <a name="operator-and"></a>QRegion::operator&amp; ( const&nbsp;<a href="qregion.html">QRegion</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;r ) const
