I have a graph shown in a QImage and want to set a cross (+) in yellow colour for measurement, if right mouse button is pressed.
void foo::mousePressEvent(QMouseEvent *event)
{
if (event->button() == Qt::RightButton) {
QPoint pos = event->pos();
int x = pos.x();
int y = pos.y();
QLine line(x-5,y,x+5,y);
QLine line(x,y-5,x,y+5);
QPainter painter(&my_image);
painter.setPen( Qt::red );
painter.setBrush( Qt::yellow );
/*
QPainter::begin: Cannot paint on an image with the QImage::Format_Indexed8 format
QPainter::setPen: Painter not active
QPainter::setBrush: Painter not active
*/
painter.drawLine(line); //no effect
}
}
if I do it in Paintevent(...), I destroy the original pic. how can I do it.
additional Information: the imag is indexed.
my_image.setColorCount(33);
for(int i = 0;i<33;i++)
{
my_image.setColor(i,qRgb((unsigned char)palette[i*3], (unsigned char)palette[i*3+1], (unsigned char)palette[i*3+2]));
}
my_imag has a black-Background and I want to draw a cross in white color --> (this is the index 32)
int color = 32;//_index_value_of_cross_color;
for (int ix=x-5;ix<x+5;ix++) {
my_image.setPixel(ix,y,color);
}
for (int iy=y-5;iy<y+5;iy++) {
my_imag.setPixel(x,iy,color);
}
but I see no effect !
Another quick and dirty alternative is to simply set the values in the image data.
You will have to do a little more work - because there is no line command, see setpixel
