    Hey,
    the widget is a QGraphicsView and it is able to zoom in it.
    When I click with the mouse anywhere on this widget, I want to display a picture there.
    The problem is, that I don't know how I can get the absolute location of the mouse on the widget.
    This is a problem, because when I zoom in and click, I also want to spawn the picture exactely where the mouse was over the widget.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for answers

      Hi,

      Are you thinking about something like the QGraphicsView::mapToScene method ?
