QGraphicsitem and protected function Paint

petr

Hi,

i am using QGraphicsIitem and i would like make something this in protected function paint:

MyEdge::paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionGraphicsItem *, QWidget *)  {
     if (something) do original paint
     else i make my custom paint....
}

Is possible somehow do/call original paint function?
Thanks, for advice..

Hi, welcome to devnet.

Sure. In C++ you can call base implementation in derived class by prefixing the method call with BaseClassName::.
So in this case it would be:

void MyEdge::paint(QPainter* painter, const QStyleOptionGraphicsItem* opt, QWidget* w)  {
   if (something)
      QGraphicsIitem::paint(painter, opt, w);
   else
      // i make my custom paint....
}
