How to draw and change the region (semi-transparent) on top of a QLabel or QImage?

[Mikeeeeee]

Yes. Please help to finish this code.

@Mikeeeeee
well if you still using code from paintWidget

if(m_nbMousePressed)
{
painter.drawPixmap(0, 0, m_nPTargetPixmap);
painter.drawLine(m_line);
painter.drawPoint(m_line.p2() ); // paint the single point.
wasPressed = true;
}

p2() is updated from
void PaintWidget::mouseMoveEvent(QMouseEvent *event)

[Mikeeeeee]

Did so, still draws a line.

void PaintWidget::paintEvent(QPaintEvent *e)
{
    static bool wasPressed = false;
    QPainter painter(this);

    if(m_nbMousePressed)
    {
        //painter.drawPixmap(0, 0, m_nPTargetPixmap);
        //painter.drawLine(m_line);
        painter.drawPoint(m_line.p2() ); // paint the single point.
        wasPressed = true;
    }
    else if(wasPressed)
    {
        QPainter PixmapPainter(&m_nPTargetPixmap);
        QPen pen(Qt::green);
        PixmapPainter.setPen(pen);
        PixmapPainter.drawLine(m_line);

        painter.drawPixmap(0, 0, m_nPTargetPixmap);
        wasPressed = false;
    }
}

Maybe you need to change:

PixmapPainter.drawLine(m_line);

[Mikeeeeee]

Did so, also does not work

void PaintWidget::paintEvent(QPaintEvent *e)
{
    static bool wasPressed = false;
    QPainter painter(this);

    if(m_nbMousePressed)
    {
        //painter.drawPixmap(0, 0, m_nPTargetPixmap);
        //painter.drawLine(m_line);
        painter.drawPoint(m_line.p2() ); // paint the single point.
        wasPressed = true;
    }
    else if(wasPressed)
    {
        QPainter PixmapPainter(&m_nPTargetPixmap);
        QPen pen(Qt::green);
        PixmapPainter.setPen(pen);
        //PixmapPainter.drawLine(m_line);
        PixmapPainter.drawPoint(m_line.p2());

        painter.drawPixmap(0, 0, m_nPTargetPixmap);
        wasPressed = false;
    }
}

[mrjj]

ok. you have to debug it then :)

[Mikeeeeee]

Found the solution here

[Mikeeeeee]

But is it possible to set QLabel 2 QImages (one with image, the second transparent) and draw on transparent QImages?

[Christian Ehrlicher]

No, you have to write it on your own by reimplementing the paintEvent()

[Mikeeeeee]

I made this class Please tell me how to set the method set2Images()?

#ifndef QLABEL2IMAGES_H
#define QLABEL2IMAGES_H
#include "QLabel"


class QLabel2Images : public QLabel 
{
public:
    QLabel2Images();
    ~QLabel2Images();
    void set2Images(QImage &downImage, QImage &yopImage);
};

#endif // QLABEL2IMAGES_H

@Mikeeeeee said in How to draw and change the region (semi-transparent) on top of a QLabel or QImage?:

how to set the method

Don't understand what you mean with this sentence - how to call this function? How to implement the function - since you're writing the function you should know it by your own.

[Mikeeeeee]

I don't know how to implement it. Need one figure to place from below, the second figure(transparent) to place from above.

[Christian Ehrlicher]

When the second image is (mostly) transparent then simply paint the first and then the second.

[Mikeeeeee]

The first is easy to add by setImage(), but how to add the second?

Hi
Well you already had most of the code in the first version

 virtual void paintEvent(QPaintEvent* e) {
    QLabel::paintEvent(e); // paint the base image
    
    QPainter p(this);    
    p.drawQImage(0, 0, OtherQImage); // draw the other image
  }
};

so your void set2Images(QImage &downImage, QImage &yopImage);
so set one image to the normal setPixmap for label and store the other one (the overlay) in a new variable
which you then use to draw it. ( like OtherQImage)

[SGaist]

Hi,

An alternative would be to compose the two images before setting the result on the QLabel.

[mrjj]

@SGaist
That's actually a better idea as the base image will be scaled with a factor
so combining them first would
make the zooming easier to handle.

  QImage base; // set to some file/size
  QImage overlay;  // set to some file/size
  QPainter paint(&base);
  paint.drawImage(0,0,overlay);
  ui->label->setPixmap(QPixmap::fromImage(base));

[Mikeeeeee]

Many thanks. That's how it works:

    QImage mapImage(":/Images/Images/mapMain.png");
    myImageViewer->setImage(mapImage);    
    QImage base(":/Images/Images/mapMain.png"); // set to some file/size
    QImage overlay(":/Images/Images/mapTop.png");  // set to some file/size
    QPainter paint(&base);
    paint.drawImage(0,0,overlay);
    myImageViewer->imageLabel->setPixmap(QPixmap::fromImage(base));
    ui->verticalLayout->addWidget(myImageViewer);
