.SH DESCRIPTION
The QPainter class does low-level painting e.g. on widgets.
.PP
The painter provides highly optimized functions to do most of the drawing GUI programs require. QPainter can draw everything from simple lines to complex shapes like pies and chords. It can also draw aligned text and pixmaps. Normally, it draws in a "natural" coordinate system, but it can also do view and world transformation.
.PP
The typical use of a painter is:
.TP
Construct a painter.
.TP
Set a pen, a brush etc.
.TP
Draw.
.TP
Destroy the painter.
.PP
Mostly, all this is done inside a paint event. (In fact, 99% of all QPainter use is in a reimplementation of TQWidget::paintEvent(), and the painter is heavily optimized for such use.) Here's one very simple example:
.PP
.nf
.br
    void SimpleExampleWidget::paintEvent()
.br
    {
.br
        QPainter paint( this );
.br
        paint.setPen( TQt::blue );
.br
        paint.drawText( rect(), AlignCenter, "The Text" );
.br
    }
.br
.fi
.PP
Usage is simple, and there are many settings you can use:
.IP
.TP
font() is the currently set font. If you set a font that isn't available, TQt finds a close match. In fact font() returns what you set using setFont() and fontInfo() returns the font actually being used (which may be the same).
.IP
.TP
brush() is the currently set brush; the color or pattern that's used for filling e.g. circles.
.IP
.TP
pen() is the currently set pen; the color or stipple that's used for drawing lines or boundaries.
.IP
.TP
backgroundMode() is \fCOpaque\fR or \fCTransparent\fR, i.e. whether backgroundColor() is used or not.
.IP
.TP
backgroundColor() only applies when backgroundMode() is Opaque and pen() is a stipple. In that case, it describes the color of the background pixels in the stipple.
.IP
.TP
rasterOp() is how pixels drawn interact with the pixels already there.
.IP
.TP
brushOrigin() is the origin of the tiled brushes, normally the origin of the window.
.IP
.TP
viewport(), window(), worldMatrix() and many more make up the painter's coordinate transformation system. See The Coordinate System for an explanation of this, or see below for a very brief overview of the functions.
.IP
.TP
hasClipping() is whether the painter clips at all. (The paint device clips, too.) If the painter clips, it clips to clipRegion().
.IP
.TP
pos() is the current position, set by moveTo() and used by lineTo().
.IP
.PP
Note that some of these settings mirror settings in some paint devices, e.g. TQWidget::font(). QPainter::begin() (or the QPainter constructor) copies these attributes from the paint device. Calling, for example, TQWidget::setFont() doesn't take effect until the next time a painter begins painting on it.
.PP
save() saves all of these settings on an internal stack, restore() pops them back.
.PP
The core functionality of QPainter is drawing, and there are functions to draw most primitives: drawPoint(), drawPoints(), drawLine(), drawRect(), drawWinFocusRect(), drawRoundRect(), drawEllipse(), drawArc(), drawPie(), drawChord(), drawLineSegments(), drawPolyline(), drawPolygon(), drawConvexPolygon() and drawCubicBezier(). All of these functions take integer coordinates; there are no floating-point versions since we want drawing to be as fast as possible.
.PP
There are functions to draw pixmaps/images, namely drawPixmap(), drawImage() and drawTiledPixmap(). drawPixmap() and drawImage() produce the same result, except that drawPixmap() is faster on-screen and drawImage() faster and sometimes better on QPrinter and QPicture.
.PP
Text drawing is done using drawText(), and when you need fine-grained positioning, boundingRect() tells you where a given drawText() command would draw.
.PP
There is a drawPicture() function that draws the contents of an entire QPicture using this painter. drawPicture() is the only function that disregards all the painter's settings: the QPicture has its own settings.
.PP
Normally, the QPainter operates on the device's own coordinate system (usually pixels), but QPainter has good support for coordinate transformation. See The Coordinate System for a more general overview and a simple example.
.PP
The most common functions used are scale(), rotate(), translate() and shear(), all of which operate on the worldMatrix(). setWorldMatrix() can replace or add to the currently set worldMatrix().
.PP
setViewport() sets the rectangle on which QPainter operates. The default is the entire device, which is usually fine, except on printers. setWindow() sets the coordinate system, that is, the rectangle that maps to viewport(). What's drawn inside the window() ends up being inside the viewport(). The window's default is the same as the viewport, and if you don't use the transformations, they are optimized away, gaining another little bit of speed.
.PP
After all the coordinate transformation is done, QPainter can clip the drawing to an arbitrary rectangle or region. hasClipping() is TRUE if QPainter clips, and clipRegion() returns the clip region. You can set it using either setClipRegion() or setClipRect(). Note that the clipping can be slow. It's all system-dependent, but as a rule of thumb, you can assume that drawing speed is inversely proportional to the number of rectangles in the clip region.
.PP
After QPainter's clipping, the paint device may also clip. For example, most widgets clip away the pixels used by child widgets, and most printers clip away an area near the edges of the paper. This additional clipping is not reflected by the return value of clipRegion() or hasClipping().
.PP
QPainter also includes some less-used functions that are very useful on those occasions when they're needed.
.PP
isActive() indicates whether the painter is active. begin() (and the most usual constructor) makes it active. end() (and the destructor) deactivates it. If the painter is active, device() returns the paint device on which the painter paints.
.PP
Sometimes it is desirable to make someone else paint on an unusual QPaintDevice. QPainter supports a static function to do this, redirect(). We recommend not using it, but for some hacks it's perfect.
.PP
setTabStops() and setTabArray() can change where the tab stops are, but these are very seldomly used.
.PP
\fBWarning:\fR Note that QPainter does not attempt to work around coordinate limitations in the underlying window system. Some platforms may behave incorrectly with coordinates as small as +/-4000.

.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
.SH "QPainter::QPainter ()"
Constructs a painter.
.PP
Notice that all painter settings (setPen, setBrush etc.) are reset to default values when begin() is called.
.PP
See also begin() and end().
.SH "QPainter::QPainter ( const QPaintDevice * pd, bool unclipped = FALSE )"
Constructs a painter that begins painting the paint device \fIpd\fR immediately. Depending on the underlying graphic system the painter will paint over children of the paintdevice if \fIunclipped\fR is TRUE.
.PP
This constructor is convenient for short-lived painters, e.g. in a paint event and should be used only once. The constructor calls begin() for you and the QPainter destructor automatically calls end().
.PP
Here's an example using begin() and end():
.PP
.nf
.br
        void MyWidget::paintEvent( QPaintEvent * )
.br
        {
.br
            QPainter p;
.br
            p.begin( this );
.br
            p.drawLine( ... );  // drawing code
.br
            p.end();
.br
        }
.br
.fi
.PP
The same example using this constructor:
.PP
.nf
.br
        void MyWidget::paintEvent( QPaintEvent * )
.br
        {
.br
            QPainter p( this );
.br
            p.drawLine( ... );  // drawing code
.br
        }
.br
.fi
.PP
Since the constructor cannot provide feedback when the initialization of the painter failed you should rather use begin() and end() to paint on external devices, e.g. printers.
.PP
See also begin() and end().
.SH "QPainter::QPainter ( const QPaintDevice * pd, const TQWidget * copyAttributes, bool unclipped = FALSE )"
Constructs a painter that begins painting the paint device \fIpd\fR immediately, with the default arguments taken from \fIcopyAttributes\fR. The painter will paint over children of the paint device if \fIunclipped\fR is TRUE (although this is not supported on all platforms).
.PP
See also begin().
.SH "QPainter::~QPainter ()"
Destroys the painter.
.SH "const TQColor & QPainter::backgroundColor () const"
Returns the current background color.
.PP
See also setBackgroundColor() and TQColor.
.SH "BGMode QPainter::backgroundMode () const"
Returns the current background mode.
.PP
See also setBackgroundMode() and BGMode.
.SH "bool QPainter::begin ( const QPaintDevice * pd, bool unclipped = FALSE )"
Begins painting the paint device \fIpd\fR and returns TRUE if successful; otherwise returns FALSE. If \fIunclipped\fR is TRUE, the painting will not be clipped at the paint device's boundaries, (although this is not supported by all platforms).
.PP
The errors that can occur are serious problems, such as these:
.PP
.nf
.br
        p->begin( 0 ); // impossible - paint device cannot be 0
.br
.br
        QPixmap pm( 0, 0 );
.br
        p->begin( pm ); // impossible - pm.isNull();
.br
.br
        p->begin( myWidget );
.br
        p2->begin( myWidget ); // impossible - only one painter at a time
.br
.fi
.PP
Note that most of the time, you can use one of the constructors instead of begin(), and that end() is automatically done at destruction.
.PP
\fBWarning:\fR A paint device can only be painted by one painter at a time.
.PP
See also end() and flush().
.PP
Examples:
.)l aclock/aclock.cpp, desktop/desktop.cpp, drawdemo/drawdemo.cpp, hello/hello.cpp, picture/picture.cpp, t10/cannon.cpp, and xform/xform.cpp.
.SH "bool QPainter::begin ( const QPaintDevice * pd, const TQWidget * copyAttributes, bool unclipped = FALSE )"
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
.PP
This version opens the painter on a paint device \fIpd\fR and sets the initial pen, background color and font from \fIcopyAttributes\fR, painting over the paint device's children when \fIunclipped\fR is TRUE. This is equivalent to:
.PP
.nf
.br
        QPainter p;
.br
        p.begin( pd );
.br
        p.setPen( copyAttributes->foregroundColor() );
.br
        p.setBackgroundColor( copyAttributes->backgroundColor() );
.br
        p.setFont( copyAttributes->font() );
.br
.fi
.PP
This begin function is convenient for double buffering. When you draw in a pixmap instead of directly in a widget (to later bitBlt the pixmap into the widget) you will need to set the widget's font etc. This function does exactly that.
.PP
Example:
.PP
.nf
.br
        void MyWidget::paintEvent( QPaintEvent * )
.br
        {
.br
            QPixmap pm(size());
.br
            QPainter p;
.br
            p.begin(&pm, this);
.br
            // ... potentially flickering paint operation ...
.br
            p.end();
.br
            bitBlt(this, 0, 0, &pm);
.br
        }
.br
.fi
.PP

.SH "QRect QPainter::boundingRect ( int x, int y, int w, int h, int flags, const TQString &, int len = -1, QTextParag ** intern = 0 )"
Returns the bounding rectangle of the aligned text that would be printed with the corresponding drawText() function using the first \fIlen\fR characters of the string if \fIlen\fR is > -1, or the whole of the string if \fIlen\fR is -1. The drawing, and hence the bounding rectangle, is constrained to the rectangle that begins at point \fI(x, y)\fR with width \fIw\fR and hight \fIh\fR, or to the rectangle required to draw the text, whichever is the larger.
.PP
The \fIflags\fR argument is the bitwise OR of the following flags: <center>.nf
.TS
l - l. Flag Meaning AlignAuto aligns according to the language, usually left. AlignLeft aligns to the left border. AlignRight aligns to the right border. AlignHCenter aligns horizontally centered. AlignTop aligns to the top border. AlignBottom aligns to the bottom border. AlignVCenter aligns vertically centered. AlignCenter (== AlignHCenter | AlignVCenter). SingleLine ignores newline characters in the text. ExpandTabs expands tabs. ShowPrefix interprets "&x" as " WordBreak
.TE
.fi
</center>
.PP
Horizontal alignment defaults to AlignLeft and vertical alignment defaults to AlignTop.
.PP
If several of the horizontal or several of the vertical alignment flags are set, the resulting alignment is undefined.
.PP
The \fIintern\fR parameter should not be used.
.PP

shear()
.TP
rotate()
.PP
They operate on the painter's worldMatrix() and are implemented like this:
.PP
.nf
.br
        void QPainter::rotate( double a )
.br
        {
.br
            QWMatrix m;
.br
            m.rotate( a );
.br
            setWorldMatrix( m, TRUE );
.br
        }
.br
.fi
.PP
Note that you should always use \fIcombine\fR when you are drawing into a QPicture. Otherwise it may not be possible to replay the picture with additional transformations. Using translate(), scale(), etc., is safe.
.PP
For a brief overview of coordinate transformation, see the Coordinate System Overview.
.PP
See also worldMatrix(), setWorldXForm(), setWindow(), setViewport(), setViewXForm(), xForm(), and QWMatrix.
.PP
Examples:
.)l drawdemo/drawdemo.cpp and xform/xform.cpp.
.SH "void QPainter::setWorldXForm ( bool enable )"
Enables world transformations if \fIenable\fR is TRUE, or disables world transformations if \fIenable\fR is FALSE. The world transformation matrix is not changed.
.PP
See also setWorldMatrix(), setWindow(), setViewport(), setViewXForm(), and xForm().
.SH "void QPainter::shear ( double sh, double sv )"
Shears the coordinate system by \fI(sh, sv)\fR.
.PP
See also translate(), scale(), rotate(), resetXForm(), setWorldMatrix(), and xForm().
.SH "int * QPainter::tabArray () const"
Returns the currently set tab stop array.
.PP
See also setTabArray().
.SH "int QPainter::tabStops () const"
Returns the tab stop setting.
.PP
See also setTabStops().
.SH "void QPainter::translate ( double dx, double dy )"
Translates the coordinate system by \fI(dx, dy)\fR. After this call, \fI(dx, dy)\fR is added to points.
.PP
For example, the following code draws the same point twice:
.PP
.nf
.br
        void MyWidget::paintEvent()
.br
        {
.br
            QPainter paint( this );
.br
.br
            paint.drawPoint( 0, 0 );
.br
.br
            paint.translate( 100.0, 40.0 );
.br
            paint.drawPoint( -100, -40 );
.br
        }
.br
