I am trying to paint on a QPixmap inside a QGraphicsView. The painting works fine, but the QGraphicsView doesn't update it.
Here is some working code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
from PyQt4 import QtCore
from PyQt4 import QtGui
class Canvas(QtGui.QPixmap):
""" Canvas for drawing"""
def __init__(self, parent=None):
QtGui.QPixmap.__init__(self, 64, 64)
self.parent = parent
self.imH = 64
self.imW = 64
self.fill(QtGui.QColor(0, 255, 255))
self.color = QtGui.QColor(0, 0, 0)
def paintEvent(self, point=False):
if point:
p = QtGui.QPainter(self)
p.setPen(QtGui.QPen(self.color, 1, QtCore.Qt.SolidLine))
p.drawPoints(point)
def clic(self, mouseX, mouseY):
self.paintEvent(QtCore.QPoint(mouseX, mouseY))
class GraphWidget(QtGui.QGraphicsView):
""" Display, zoom, pan..."""
def __init__(self):
QtGui.QGraphicsView.__init__(self)
self.im = Canvas(self)
self.imH = self.im.height()
self.imW = self.im.width()
self.zoomN = 1
self.scene = QtGui.QGraphicsScene(self)
self.scene.setItemIndexMethod(QtGui.QGraphicsScene.NoIndex)
self.scene.setSceneRect(0, 0, self.imW, self.imH)
self.scene.addPixmap(self.im)
self.setScene(self.scene)
self.setTransformationAnchor(QtGui.QGraphicsView.AnchorUnderMouse)
self.setResizeAnchor(QtGui.QGraphicsView.AnchorViewCenter)
self.setMinimumSize(400, 400)
self.setWindowTitle("pix")
def mousePressEvent(self, event):
if event.buttons() == QtCore.Qt.LeftButton:
pos = self.mapToScene(event.pos())
self.im.clic(pos.x(), pos.y())
#~ self.scene.update(0,0,64,64)
#~ self.updateScene([QtCore.QRectF(0,0,64,64)])
self.scene.addPixmap(self.im)
print('items')
print(self.scene.items())
else:
return QtGui.QGraphicsView.mousePressEvent(self, event)
def wheelEvent(self, event):
if event.delta() > 0:
self.scaleView(2)
elif event.delta() < 0:
self.scaleView(0.5)
def scaleView(self, factor):
n = self.zoomN * factor
if n < 1 or n > 16:
return
self.zoomN = n
self.scale(factor, factor)
if __name__ == '__main__':
import sys
app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
widget = GraphWidget()
widget.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
The mousePressEvent
does some painting on the QPixmap. But the only solution I have found to update the display is to make a new instance (which is not a good solution).
How do I just update it?
