Hi! Create a custom QGraphicsItem-derived class, override boundingRect() and paint(), draw the background, draw the lines with a dashed pen style.

• QGraphicsItem Class, see example under #details
• QPainter Class
• QPen
• enum Qt::PenStyle
• QBrush
• enum Qt::BrushStyle
• Basic Drawing Example

Depending on what exactly you want, it may be sufficient to apply the correct brush.

could you elaborate with the QBrush color style

Create a QBrush and set the style to Qt::HorPattern

myBrush.setStyle(Qt::HorPattern)

Then apply the brush to a rectangle. You can see the result in the Basic Drawing example.
