Changing the background color of a QGraphicsSimpleTextItem

[psychocowtipper]

Thank you so much! I was able to get it working just by changing my overloaded paint() function to:

void MyTextItem::paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionGraphicsItem *option, QWidget *widget)
{
 
        QBrush brush(Qt::white);
        painter->setBrush(brush);
        painter->drawRect(0,0,70,35);
 
        QGraphicsSimpleTextItem::paint(painter,option,widget);
 
}

void MyTextItem::paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionGraphicsItem *option, QWidget *widget)
{

        QBrush brush(Qt::white);
        painter->setBrush(brush);
        painter->drawRect(0,0,70,35);

        QGraphicsSimpleTextItem::paint(painter,option,widget);

}
