#include <QRegion>
The QRegion class specifies a clip region for a painter.
QRegion is used with QPainter::setClipRegion() to limit the paint area to what needs to be painted. There is also a QWidget::repaint() function that takes a QRegion parameter. QRegion is the best tool for reducing flicker.
A region can be created from a rectangle, an ellipse, a polygon or a bitmap. Complex regions may be created by combining simple regions using united(), intersected(), subtracted(), or xored() (exclusive or). You can move a region using translate().
You can test whether a region isEmpty() or if it contains() a QPoint or QRect. The bounding rectangle can be found with boundingRect().
The function rects() gives a decomposition of the region into rectangles.
Example of using complex regions:
void MyWidget::paintEvent(QPaintEvent *) { QRegion r1(QRect(100, 100, 200, 80), // r1: elliptic region QRegion::Ellipse); QRegion r2(QRect(100, 120, 90, 30)); // r2: rectangular region QRegion r3 = r1.intersected(r2); // r3: intersection QPainter painter(this); painter.setClipRegion(r3); ... // paint clipped graphics }
QRegion is an implicitly shared class.
Warning: Due to window system limitations, the whole coordinate space for a region is limited to the points between -32767 and 32767 on Windows 95/98/ME. You can circumvent this limitation by using a QPainterPath.

Specifies the shape of the region to be created.
Constant | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
QRegion::Rectangle | 0 | the region covers the entire rectangle. |
QRegion::Ellipse | 1 | the region is an ellipse inside the rectangle. |
Constructs a rectangular or elliptic region.
If t is Rectangle, the region is the filled rectangle (x, y, w, h). If t is Ellipse, the region is the filled ellipse with center at (x + w / 2, y + h / 2) and size (w ,h).
