Painting on QML Element

[arunpk]

Hi all......
I am looking for a solution for my problem...But i didn't any solution yet..Please help me out...

I have created my own QML element and i am able to implement it inside a class... I will be setting some properties of this QML element from my C++ class... That is working fine... But i need to make some drawings on the QML element which i cannot do in the QML file directly... So i need to implement PaintEvent in my class to do that... I tried to implement PaintEvent, but i am unable draw over my QML element... Hope you understand my problem... Please give me a solution.....


Thank u...

If you want to do custom drawing on a QML element, you will need to ensure that your corresponding C++ class derives from QDeclarativeItem and override the virtual paint() method. http://get.qt.nokia.com/training/QtQ...ntegration.pdf has an exact code example for what you're looking for (in particular, check out slides 10-21 that show how to draw an Ellipse in your C++-based QML element).

Note that QDeclarativeItem will be replaced in Qt 5, so some porting effort will be required if you decide to migrate later.
