QGraphicsSvgItem - how to make clickable?

[scott.deagan]

How can I make a QGraphicsSvgItem that is added to a scene clickable? I am adding it as follows:



svgItem = new QGraphicsSvgItem(":/MySVGImage.svg");
svgItem->scale(0.1, 0.1);
scene->addItem(svgItem);
...
ui->graphicsView->setScene(scene);


How can I now detect that this particular svgItem has been clicked?

Any help really appreciated. Thanks.

How do you want to handle the clicks?

If it's just basic stuff like selecting or moving it around, you can just set flags (e.g., "setFlag(ItemIsSelectable,true);"). If it's more complicated, you should subclass QGraphicsItem or QGraphicsSvgItem and implement your own functionality. You'd need to reimplement QGraphicsItem::mousePressEvent.
