GroupItems in two states

[Andre008]

Hello,

the following code draws 3 ellipses and one rectangle.
These 4 object are grouped in a QGraphicsItemGroup together.

What i want to do is to implement 2 states:

First state:
If the rectangles moves, the ellipses move too, like the code shows.


Second state:
This is where i do not find a solution.
I need a state where I make the ellipses moveable inside the rectangle , for example with a double click on the rectangle.
And if i click back outsite the rectangle, the ellipses fix back to the rectangle. (first state).
How i could do this?

Thx Andre

Has anyone an idee, if there there is a helpful functionality form the QT-Framework, or it should this implements by hand.

Thx Andre

Hello,

i have a semi solution, but a i can not release the grouped items :

mainwindow.cpp

MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
    QMainWindow(parent),
    ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
..... 
 
    CustomItemRect *rect       = new CustomItemRect();
    scene->addItem(rect);
    group->addToGroup(rect);
 
    //add this line 
    rect->setGroup(group);
 
....
}

MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
    QMainWindow(parent),
    ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
..... 

    CustomItemRect *rect       = new CustomItemRect();
    scene->addItem(rect);
    group->addToGroup(rect);
    
    //add this line 
    rect->setGroup(group);

....
}

But how i could send a mouse event on QGraphicsItemGroup item to trigger the doouble click function?

Thx
