item local coordinate

[dreamer]

I'd like to have each rect item on the scene, with the local (0,0) coordinate in the centre of the rect.

If i'd like to obtain a rect item with this attribute, a write:

QRectF area(-25,-25,50,50)
myrect = new rectitem(bla,bla,area);
setPos("pos in the scene where i'd like to put my item")

QRectF area(-25,-25,50,50)
myrect = new rectitem(bla,bla,area);
setPos("pos in the scene where i'd like to put my item")

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I build the rect in this mode: QRectF area(-width/2,-height/2,width,height);

The problems come, when i resize the rect.
When i resize it, i use the setRect() function, where i set the new rect.
At the end of resize, the local coordinate (0,0) doesn't match with the centre of my item. How can i obtain this behaviour??

here my specific code for the vertical resize:

void bottom_resize(){
QRectF r=rect();
r.setBottom(event->pos().y());
setRect(r);
scene()->update();
}

void bottom_resize(){
QRectF r=rect();
r.setBottom(event->pos().y());
setRect(r);
scene()->update();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

How can I mantein the local coordinate (0,0) on the centre of my resized item???

Change the boundingRect() implementation. It is the one deciding about coordinates.

can i have an example?????

[wysota]

Sorry, an example of what? Returning of a QRect object?

[dreamer]

if the code is :

QRectF myItem::boundingRect() const{
	return rect();
}

QRectF myItem::boundingRect() const{
	return rect();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

....so i don't resolve the problem.

The item coordinate (0,0) doesn't match with the centre of the item.

The rect you return has to correspond to the coordinates. If you increase the size of the rectangle and want the (0,0) point to remain in the middle of the rectangle, the upper left corner has to change its coordinates. Otherwise you're just extending the rectangle one way.
