Detailed Description

The QPaintEngineState class provides information about the active paint engine's current state.

QPaintEngineState records which properties that have changed since the last time the paint engine was updated, as well as their current value.

Which properties that have changed can at any time be retrieved using the state() function. This function returns an instance of the QPaintEngine::DirtyFlags type which stores an OR combination of QPaintEngine::DirtyFlag values. The QPaintEngine::DirtyFlag enum defines whether a property has changed since the last update or not.

If a property is marked with a dirty flag, its current value can be retrieved using the corresponding get function:

Property Flag

Current Property Value

QPaintEngine::DirtyBackground

backgroundBrush()

QPaintEngine::DirtyBackgroundMode

backgroundMode()

QPaintEngine::DirtyBrush

brush()

QPaintEngine::DirtyBrushOrigin

brushOrigin()

QPaintEngine::DirtyClipRegion or QPaintEngine::DirtyClipPath

clipOperation()

QPaintEngine::DirtyClipPath

clipPath()

QPaintEngine::DirtyClipRegion

clipRegion()

QPaintEngine::DirtyCompositionMode

compositionMode()

QPaintEngine::DirtyFont

font()

QPaintEngine::DirtyTransform

transform()

QPaintEngine::DirtyClipEnabled

isClipEnabled()

QPaintEngine::DirtyPen

pen()

QPaintEngine::DirtyHints

renderHints()

The QPaintEngineState class also provide the painter() function which returns a pointer to the painter that is currently updating the paint engine.

An instance of this class, representing the current state of the active paint engine, is passed as argument to the QPaintEngine::updateState() function. The only situation in which you will have to use this class directly is when implementing your own paint engine.

Method Documentation

QBrush QPaintEngineState::backgroundBrush ( ) const

Returns the background brush in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyBackground flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
Qt::BGMode QPaintEngineState::backgroundMode ( ) const

Returns the background mode in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyBackgroundMode flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
QBrush QPaintEngineState::brush ( ) const

Returns the brush in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyBrush flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
bool QPaintEngineState::brushNeedsResolving ( ) const

Returns whether the coordinate of the fill have been specified as bounded by the current rendering operation and have to be resolved (about the currently rendered primitive).

QPointF QPaintEngineState::brushOrigin ( ) const

Returns the brush origin in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyBrushOrigin flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
Qt::ClipOperation QPaintEngineState::clipOperation ( ) const

Returns the clip operation in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes either the QPaintEngine::DirtyClipPath or the QPaintEngine::DirtyClipRegion flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
QPainterPath QPaintEngineState::clipPath ( ) const

Returns the clip path in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyClipPath flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
QRegion QPaintEngineState::clipRegion ( ) const

Returns the clip region in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyClipRegion flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
QPainter::CompositionMode QPaintEngineState::compositionMode ( ) const

Returns the composition mode in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyCompositionMode flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
QFont QPaintEngineState::font ( ) const

Returns the font in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyFont flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
bool QPaintEngineState::isClipEnabled ( ) const

Returns whether clipping is enabled or not in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyClipEnabled flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
QMatrix QPaintEngineState::matrix ( ) const
deprecated
Deprecated:
Returns the matrix in the current paint engine state.

It is advisable to use transform() instead of this function to preserve the properties of perspective transformations. This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyTransform flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
qreal QPaintEngineState::opacity ( ) const

Returns the opacity in the current paint engine state.

QPainter * QPaintEngineState::painter ( ) const

Returns a pointer to the painter currently updating the paint engine.

QPen QPaintEngineState::pen ( ) const

Returns the pen in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyPen flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
bool QPaintEngineState::penNeedsResolving ( ) const

Returns whether the coordinate of the stroke have been specified as bounded by the current rendering operation and have to be resolved (about the currently rendered primitive).

QPainter::RenderHints QPaintEngineState::renderHints ( ) const

Returns the render hints in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyHints flag.

See also
state(), QPaintEngine::updateState()
QPaintEngine::DirtyFlags QPaintEngineState::state ( ) const
inline

Returns a combination of flags identifying the set of properties that need to be updated when updating the paint engine's state (i.e. during a call to the QPaintEngine::updateState() function).

QPaintEngine::updateState()
QTransform QPaintEngineState::transform ( ) const

Returns the matrix in the current paint engine state.

This variable should only be used when the state() returns a combination which includes the QPaintEngine::DirtyTransform flag.
