addPoints or addPoint

[Mariane]

Hi,

I'm trying to draw a convex polygon but I don't understand how to give the
coordinates.

I understood that the first number is an array index (which gives a segmentation
fault if started at 0, so it must start at 1, yes?).

But stuff like :
pts.setPoints(1, 240, 210, 260, 230, 300, 150, 320, 170);
either does nothing visible or draws lines all over the place

And when I try to add points one by one with :
pts.setPoint(1, 240, 210);
pts.setPoint(2, 260, 230);
pts.setPoint(3, 300, 150);
pts.setPoint(4, 320, 170);

I get errors like:
QGArray::at: Absolute index 16 out of range
segmentation fault

(and I haven't used a "16" anywhere).

Then I call a "p.drawConvexPolygon( pts );", with p being a QPainter.

What I am trying to do is to draw a polygon with points at coordinates:
(X = 240, Y = 210) (X = 260, Y = 230) (X = 300, Y = 150) and (X = 320, Y = 170).

Please help.

Try:

QPointArray pts(4);
pts.setPoints(0, 240, 210, 260, 230, 300, 150, 320, 170);

QPointArray pts(4);
pts.setPoints(0, 240, 210, 260, 230, 300, 150, 320, 170);

pts.setPoint(1, 260, 230);
pts.setPoint(2, 300, 150);
pts.setPoint(3, 320, 170);

QPointArray pts(4);

pts.setPoint(1, 260, 230);
