    @JoeCFD

    I have used

    painter.drawRoundedRect(rect, 10, 10);
    

    because QPainterPath does not have drawRoundedRect()

    current output

    Below lines creating difference.

    //QGraphicsRectItem::paint(painter, &copied_option, widget);  /* you do not call this one  */

      @tushu You also need to try the example first

      void myRect::paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionGraphicsItem *option, QWidget *widget)
      {
      painter->setRenderHint(QPainter::Antialiasing);
      QPainterPath path;
      path.addRoundedRect(QRectF(10, 10, 100, 50), 10, 10);
      QPen pen(Qt::black, 10);
      painter->setPen(pen);
      painter->fillPath(path, Qt::red);
      painter->drawPath(path);
      }

        For this , getting the same above output.
        (i.e. No border of any rectangle)

              Is the below line correct ?

              QRectF rect = QRectF(widget->rect());
              

              because of the above line , it is creating bigger rectangle ?
              But bigger rectangle ( outermost ) has curved corner.

                @tushu you know the size of your rects, right? I do not know.

                  Your rectangle size suggestion worked.
                  Current output.

                  296e6f8c-ef10-4ecb-91bb-d7685fd8f2e5-image.png

                  Now I want to round corner of middle 5 rectangle only ( i.e. sw1,sw2,PD_blue, PD_green,PD_yellow)
                  But left side rectangle ( small ) also got changed and looking like circle.

                  I think, I will need to set some flag and will have to decide, which rectangle's corner should be rounded.

                  But now main concern is PD_blue, PD_green,PD_yellow rectangles color is not visible.

                  I set their color, after creating rectangle using setBrush(). I do not set their color in paint(). After creating rectangle, if they are full filling some criteria, then I set color on them.

                  Why that color is not visible ?

                  Here is my paint()

                  void guiSchematicRect::paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionGraphicsItem *option, QWidget *widget)
                  {
                      Q_UNUSED(option);
                      Q_UNUSED(widget);
                      QRectF rect = QRectF(_polyRect);
                      QPainterPath path;
                      path.addRoundedRect(rect, 4, 4);
                     auto copied_option = *option;
                      copied_option.state &= ~QStyle::State_Selected;
                      auto selected = option->state & 
                     QStyle::State_Selected;
                      painter->save();
                      if (selected) {
                          painter->setBrush(Qt::NoBrush);
                          painter->setPen(QPen(option->palette.windowText(), 1, Qt::SolidLine));
                     }
                     else {
                         painter->setPen(Qt::blue);
                     }
                     painter->drawPath(path);
                     painter->restore();
                  }

                    @tushu said in How to draw rectangle with all corners rounded ?:

                    if they are full filling some criteria, then I set color on them.
                    Why that color is not visible ?

                    fill your form first:
                    painter->fillPath(path, yourColor);

                      If I add below line in paint() , then I get my 3 rectangle ( PD_blue, PD_green, PD_yellow) with thier respective color.

                      QGraphicsRectItem::paint(painter, &copied_option, widget);
                      

                      BUt output I get like this :
                      423d4ef8-f783-4648-9fbe-61a8932099c7-image.png

                      Can you see the corners ? There is a round shape but it is getting overlapped.

                      What is the issue with this line ?

                      QGraphicsRectItem::paint(painter, &copied_option, widget);
                      

                      With this I get color of remaining rectangle but could not see round shape at edge.

                        @tushu QGraphicsRectItem::paint(painter, &copied_option, widget); is to call the parent to paint the rect without round corners. Look at the example and this call is not needed.

                          You are correct.
                          But now problem is, after creating rectangle, for some of the rectangle, I am setting some colour with

                          SetBrush()
                          

                          And the color applied with above method, is not visible to the rectangle. They are appearing colorless.

                          Can we use paint() parameter in this case ?

                          paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionGraphicsItem *option, QWidget *widget)
                          

                          Or is there any other way to solve this issue ?

                            Can we use paint() parameter in this case ?

                            paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionGraphicsItem *option, QWidget *widget)
                            

                            Or is there any other way to solve this issue ?

                              then I can see my rectangle with color. But gets problem with rounded corner.

                                @tushu Check the example and @mpergand's reply. You do not have
                                painter->fillPath(path, yourColor);
                                Try to set yourColor = Qt::green to see what you get.

                                    @tushu said in How to draw rectangle with all corners rounded ?:

                                    if they are full filling some criteria, then I set color on them.
                                    Why that color is not visible ?

                                    fill your form first:
                                    painter->fillPath(path, yourColor);

                                      I am facing another small issue in paint()

                                      When I left click on any rectangular object, it's paint() runs. And it highlights that object perfectly.

                                      But when I right click on object ( I have few Right mouse button options ) , paint() method runs, but it does not highlight that object.

                                      Her is my paint()

                                      void myRect::paint(QPainter *painter, QPainterPath path,
                                                                                  const QStyleOptionGraphicsItem *option)
                                      {
                                          auto copied_option = *option;
                                          copied_option.state &= ~QStyle::State_Selected;
                                          auto selected = option->state & QStyle::State_Selected;
                                          if(selected)
                                              qDebug()<<"TRUE ";
                                          else
                                              qDebug()<<"FALSE ";
                                          painter->save();
                                          if (selected) {
                                              qDebug()<<"In selected ";
                                              painter->setBrush(Qt::NoBrush);
                                              painter->setPen(QPen(option->palette.windowText(), 1, Qt::SolidLine));
                                              qDebug()<<"Selected completing  ";
                                          } else
                                          {
                                              painter->setPen(Qt::blue);
                                              qDebug()<<"NOT Selected";
                                          }
                                          painter->drawPath(path);
                                          painter->restore();
                                      }
                                      

                                      I checked through qDebug statements, and I found that,

                                      auto selected
                                      

                                      variable has value false on Right click.( i.e. selected = false)

                                      On left click, It works perfectly ( i.e. selected = true )

                                        I am facing another small issue in paint()

                                        When I left click on any rectangular object, it's paint() runs. And it highlights that object perfectly.

                                        But when I right click on object ( I have few Right mouse button options ) , paint() method runs, but it does not highlight that object.

                                        {

                                        @tushu That means you do not use right click to select your widget. I do not know if it is a good idea to add right click to this feature. If you want to add it, you have to override mouse event to catch mouse right click and then set selected to be true.
