Wrapping a QGraphicsItem/QGraphicScene in a QWidget for use in QT Designer as a plugin.

Hi QT Gurus,

Is it possible to wrap a QGraphicsItem/QGraphicScene as a QWidget for use in QT Designer as a plugin with mouse events.

It is easy to add a QWidget to to a QGraphicScene but is possible to add a QGraphicScene to a QWidget.

The purpose being to implement some basic drawing tools in the Designer.

I know it is possible to use QPainter in a QWidget to to this but I would like to use QGraphicsItem/QGraphicScene.

Is this possible?

As far as I know, it's not possible to do such a thing yet.

not sure if I understood you right, but isn't QGraphicsView also a widget?
