[Solved]Paint issue in Widget

Craig27

I'm trying my hands on clock in Widget from the reference "digiclock example":http://doc.qt.digia.com/qt/demos-embedded-digiflip.html

we intended to improvise the project with other functionalities, so I begun with adding colon between the digits( for example 10:30), though am drawing the rectangle on the paint event. I'm not able see them on the screen.

Below is the code snippet, i have tried to introduce a plane rectangle on paint event but its not visible on the screen

@void DrawingDigits::paintEvent(QPaintEvent *event) {
Q_UNUSED(event);

QPainter painter(this);
painter.setPen(Qt::red); 
painter.drawRect(10,10,10,10);

if (m_animator.state() == QTimeLine::Running) {
    paintFlip();
} else {
    paintStatic();
}

}@

Can anyone please let me know where am getting it wrong (Kindly refer the link for the complete code in case needed). I'm not getting any warning while debugging.

I would suspect that after you draw your rectangle, the paintFlip() and paintStatic() methods are repainting the entire area, covering up the rectangle you just drew.

ohh yes...those methods are painting the entire area, I should have thought in that area
Thanx a ton mate :)
