QGraphicsScene --setting the position of items

[musimbate]

Hi all,I am trying to set the position of items in my scene but no matter what i try they stay in the center .The relevant part of my code is as follows:

@

scene=new MyScene(this);
view =new QGraphicsView(this);
view->setFixedSize(width(),height());
view->setScene(scene);

QGraphicsTextItem* mTextItem = scene->addText("boomba");
mTextItem->setParent(view);
mTextItem->setPos(QPointF(300,600));

@

I simply want to be in control of where those item go in my scene.The doc talks about mapping between scene and view but all I have tried has failed so far.
Any hints /advice would be appreciated.

Hi!

If I remember correctly, you must set size to your scene(setSceneRect method).
If not, scene will be dynamically extended while items are being added. First one will always be in centre.
