how to draw a rectangle on an image label without overloading paintEvent function

i want to draw a rectangle on an image label without overloading paintEvent function......... I don't want to use paintEvent b'coz i have to pas the name of the image to be displayed(frameName) each time I display an image out of a series of images.
Earlier I had drawn suing the following code in the paintEvent function.Now how should I do it without using the paintEvent function.

Code:

---

if((i >= startFrameMarkerPosition)&&(i < endFrameMarkerPosition))
			{	
				painter.drawPixmap(0,0,QPixmap(localFileName.at(i)));
 
				int x,y,w,h;
				x=100; y=200; w=TIME_INTERVAL_PROCESSING_PLAY;h=60;
				painter.setPen(Qt::red);
				painter.drawRect(x,y,w,h);
 
				QLabel::paintEvent(event);
 
				localSlider->setValue(i);
				i++;
		    }

Thanx in advance!!

You can use QPainter also direct on the image. So draw on the image and set it to your label.

I have implemented it as:

Code:

---

if((i >= startFrameMarkerPosition)&&(i < endFrameMarkerPosition))
			{	
				painter.drawPixmap(0,0,QPixmap(currentFrameName));//When this line //is commented,even then the rectangle drawn below is not displayed.Actually neither of them //is working(the 'drawPixmap' and the 'drawRect')
 
				int x,y,w,h;
				x=100; y=200; w=80;h=60;
				painter.setPen(Qt::red);
				painter.drawRect(x,y,w,h);
 
				//QLabel::paintEvent(event);
 
				localSlider->setValue(i);
				i++;
		    }

Can you tell me how to draw on an image!

Something in the lines of:

Code:

---

QPixmap myPixmap(100, 100); // size
QPainter painter(&myPixmap);
 
// Use the painter to draw things
 
// Then use the pixmap like:
myLabel->setPixmap(myPixmap);
