Painter opacity problem

[krisztiantobias]

My code is:

QPainter painter(this);
    painter.setOpacity(opacity/255.0);
    painter.setBrush(QColor(0,0,0));
    painter.save();
    painter.setPen(QPen(QBrush(QColor(0,0,0)), 5, Qt::SolidLine, Qt::FlatCap, Qt::MiterJoin));
    double meret = 60.0;
    painter.drawArc(QRectF(-meret, -meret, meret*2, meret*2),0*16,360*16);
    painter.restore();
    painter.setPen(Qt::NoPen);
    painter.drawRect(QRectF(-5, -meret, 10, meret*2));

QPainter painter(this);
    painter.setOpacity(opacity/255.0);
    painter.setBrush(QColor(0,0,0));
    painter.save();
    painter.setPen(QPen(QBrush(QColor(0,0,0)), 5, Qt::SolidLine, Qt::FlatCap, Qt::MiterJoin));
    double meret = 60.0;
    painter.drawArc(QRectF(-meret, -meret, meret*2, meret*2),0*16,360*16);
    painter.restore();
    painter.setPen(Qt::NoPen);
    painter.drawRect(QRectF(-5, -meret, 10, meret*2));

The end result is:

But I want this:

How can I do that with drawArc and drawRect?

I'm not sure what value in opacity, but you saw this, right?

The value should be in the range 0.0 to 1.0, where 0.0 is fully transparent and 1.0 is fully opaque.

0 to 255. But isn't that the problem. The problem is the next shortly:

Without opacity (painter.setOpacity(220/255.0) is perfect:


But I used opacity:


I would like to this (Photoshop):


So if you add opacity to the first picture (like in photoshop and if the 3 layers (3 Ellipse) are rasterized), the result is the third picture, but in Qt the result is the second (like in photoshop and the 3 layers are not rasterized).
How can I get the third picture, if I use the first and I add to it opacity after the drawing?

I see. (Misslooked intersection in your first post). Qt's QPainter works correct. For your goal you need to apply opacity to whole scene. In this case you;d probably need to render scene into some buffer, QPixmap or QImage and then render it with needed opacity.
You can also play with Composition modes...
