Member Function Documentation

QGraphicsSvgItem::QGraphicsSvgItem(QGraphicsItem *parent = nullptr)

Constructs a new SVG item with the given parent.

QGraphicsSvgItem::QGraphicsSvgItem(const QString &fileName, QGraphicsItem *parent = nullptr)

Constructs a new item with the given parent and loads the contents of the SVG file with the specified fileName.

[override virtual] QRectF QGraphicsSvgItem::boundingRect() const

Reimplemented from QGraphicsItem::boundingRect().

Returns the bounding rectangle of this item.

QString QGraphicsSvgItem::elementId() const

Returns the XML ID the element that is currently being rendered. Returns an empty string if the whole file is being rendered.

Note: Getter function for property elementId.

See also setElementId().

QSize QGraphicsSvgItem::maximumCacheSize() const

Returns the current maximum size of the device coordinate cache for this item. If the item is cached using QGraphicsItem::DeviceCoordinateCache mode, caching is bypassed if the extension of the item in device coordinates is larger than the maximum size.

The default maximum cache size is 1024x768. QPixmapCache::cacheLimit() gives the cumulative bounds of the whole cache, whereas maximumCacheSize() refers to a maximum cache size for this particular item.

Note: Getter function for property maximumCacheSize.

See also setMaximumCacheSize() and QGraphicsItem::cacheMode().

[override virtual] void QGraphicsSvgItem::paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionGraphicsItem *option, QWidget *widget = nullptr)

Reimplemented from QGraphicsItem::paint().

QSvgRenderer *QGraphicsSvgItem::renderer() const

Returns the currently use QSvgRenderer.

void QGraphicsSvgItem::setElementId(const QString &id)

Sets the XML ID of the element to id.

Note: Setter function for property elementId.

See also elementId().

void QGraphicsSvgItem::setMaximumCacheSize(const QSize &size)

Sets the maximum device coordinate cache size of the item to size. If the item is cached using QGraphicsItem::DeviceCoordinateCache mode, caching is bypassed if the extension of the item in device coordinates is larger than size.

The cache corresponds to the QPixmap which is used to cache the results of the rendering. Use QPixmapCache::setCacheLimit() to set limitations on the whole cache and use setMaximumCacheSize() when setting cache size for individual items.

Note: Setter function for property maximumCacheSize.

See also maximumCacheSize() and QGraphicsItem::cacheMode().

void QGraphicsSvgItem::setSharedRenderer(QSvgRenderer *renderer)

Sets renderer to be a shared QSvgRenderer on the item. By using this method one can share the same QSvgRenderer on a number of items. This means that the SVG file will be parsed only once. QSvgRenderer passed to this method has to exist for as long as this item is used.

[override virtual] int QGraphicsSvgItem::type() const

Reimplemented from QGraphicsItem::type().
