QGraphicsview and mouse press event

[aamer4yu]

reimplement the QGraphicsScen
void QGraphicsScene::keyPressEvent ( QKeyEvent * keyEvent ) [virtual protected]

I guess you meant QGraphicsScene::mousePressEvent

May be if you tell what you want to do on click, we can help you better

actually I wanted to have something like when I click the mouse on the graphicsview, I will display a circle on that spot and remove any other previously over items items on the scene (except for the background).

which mousepressevent should I edit? the graphicsview, graphicsscene or the graphicellipse?

I have another problem. How can I prevent tiling of the Qpixmap in graphivew if my pixmap is smaller than the scene rect?

I manage to get the mouse press event to work. However I still have the tiled background issue.

I loaded map onto the graphicsview by using setbackgroundbrush. but I notice that it got tiled if the graphicsScene scene rect is bigger than the map.

How can I prevent this? I want to just white/ block out the areas that is not covered by the map.

Furthermore, I have this scrollbar which will change the size of the map (via matrix transform). I would like the white/black out area to not show after the map is large enough to cover the graphicsScene.

Dont set the brush. Draw the background yourself using QGraphicsScene::drawBackground or QGraphicsView::drawBackground

thx. by the way, is there any way to remove the background brush after involving setBackgroundBrush?
