Hi..
I would like to know if it possible to open and display a shapefile ( .shp) on a graphicsView..

like the way QGIS use to add shapefile that could represent road,lakes, cities...on a map!!

but in the Qgis library there is already structrue that allow openin' those kind of flles ( VectorLayer) ..
If someone could help !!
thanks

QGraphicsView itself doesn't provide such functionality, but maybe QGIS can read that file for you? For example you might try to create a custom graphics item which has QgsVectorLayer embedded inside.
