Drawing transformed child widgets

[XavierLL]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to draw widgets with different transformations (scale, rotation) I know that you can accomplish this with QGraphicsScene and QProxyWidget but I have seen that you get similar results using something as simple as this:

void Widget::paintEvent(QPaintEvent *event)
{
Q_UNUSED(event)
QPainter painter(this);
painter.scale(2,2);
lbl->render(&painter, QPoint(100, 50));
}

The problem I am facing is that lbl is rendered twice, first in your paintEvent, and if it is child of widget, it is also rendered with its normal geometry.
I could make lbl parentless but I do not know if there is a better way to accomplish this or if there is something wrong in calling render inside paintEvent.

thanks for your help,

Xavier LLigadas

hi
Just a note, you can draw any widget using
QApplication::style()->drawControl (...)

If you hide lbl, maybe it will still render ?
