"QGraphicsView":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qgraphicsview.html inherits "QAbstractScrollArea":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qabstractscrollarea.html so you can permanently disable the scrollbars by calling the following methods (please note the arguments):

@setVerticalScrollBarPolicy ( Qt::ScrollBarAlwaysOff );
setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy ( Qt::ScrollBarAlwaysOff );@

Thanks, and my first problem? What do you think?

Honestly I did not understand what exactly is the problem. Btw what are you trying to achieve?

If you want just to set a background color it would be easier to use:

@setStyleSheet("background-color:rgb(255,127,0);");@

QGraphicsView inherits QAbstractScrollArea, which inherits QFrame, which inherits QWidget so you should be able to call setStyleSheet :)

I have this code:
@
QGraphicScene scene;
scene.addRect(QRect(0,0,1000,700));

GraphicsView gv(&scene);
gv.show();
@
And GraphicView class:
@
class GraphicsView : public QGraphicsView
{
public:
explicit GraphicsView(QGraphicsScene* scene) : QGraphicsView(scene) { }

protected:
void paintEvent(QPaintEvent*);
};
void GraphicsView::paintEvent(QPaintEvent*)
{
QPainter painter(this);
painter.setBrush(QBrush(QColor(255,127,0)));
painter.drawRect(this->sceneRect());
}
@
Problem is, that debugger writes messages as I wrote above, and it doesn't draw anything....

Please check "this thread at stackoverflow":http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1117847/qt-4-5-how-do-i-get-a-qpainter-device-in-a-qgraphicsview the proposed solution is to use "viewport()":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qabstractscrollarea.html#viewport instead of this:

@QPainter painter(viewport());@

Great! It works! Oh my God, it should be in docs...

leon.anavi

Cool :) So now both issues are solved thanks to the viewport!

Peppy

Yes, but this important thing should be in docs, I think. :)

You can add a wiki howto article about this issue here at Qt Developer network :)

You can also reimplement "QGraphicsScene::drawBackground":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qgraphicsscene.html#drawBackground

or take a look also at "backgroundBrush":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qgraphicsscene.html#backgroundBrush-prop

When I used backgroundBrush (image via QBrush class) image was repeating on all axis. :)...

deimos

yes :)
you can reimplement drawbackground like this:

@void GraphicsView::drawBackground(QPainter *painter,
const QRectF &f)
{
Q_UNUSED(f);
QRectF rect;
rect=this->mapToScene(0,0, this->width(), this->height()).boundingRect();
painter->fillRect( rect, QColor(255,127,0));
}@

QGV inherits QAbstractScrollArea and the docs there tell you all about the distinction between the viewport and the scroll area. Always a good idea to read the docs for the class(es) that the class of interest publically inherits too.
