How do I get a Qpixmap or QImage from a QGraphicsView without show()+grabWidget()

[maxpyne]

I have tried following



QGraphicsView view;

QImager img;
QPainter painter(&img);
view.render(&painter);
painter,end();

img.save("./image.png");

Problem with this approach is that view does not update before rendering onto painter. Calling view.update() did not help either.
Any help is appreciated.

thanks

Since you don't seem to need the view, have you tried rendering the scene itself instead?
