how to get QPainter object for QLabel

[aamer4yu]

In my opinion it would be simple and better to go for subclassing the QLabel and doing your drawing in the paintEvent() function.
Something as suggested above -

void myLabel::paintEvent ( QPaintEvent * event ) 
{
    QPainter painter(this);
   ....... // do your drawing..
   QLabel::paintEvent(event); // Pass to base class if needed.
}

void myLabel::paintEvent ( QPaintEvent * event ) 
{
    QPainter painter(this);
   ....... // do your drawing..
   QLabel::paintEvent(event); // Pass to base class if needed.
}
