Detailed Description¶
This paint device represents a Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) drawing. Like
QPrinter
, it is designed as a write-only device that generates output in a specific format.To write an SVG file, you first need to configure the output by setting the
fileName
oroutputDevice
properties. It is usually necessary to specify the size of the drawing by setting thesize
property, and in some cases where the drawing will be included in another, theviewBox
property also needs to be set.QSvgGenerator generator; generator.setFileName(path); generator.setSize(QSize(200, 200)); generator.setViewBox(QRect(0, 0, 200, 200)); generator.setTitle(tr("SVG Generator Example Drawing")); generator.setDescription(tr("An SVG drawing created by the SVG Generator " "Example provided with Qt."));Other meta-data can be specified by setting the
title
,description
andresolution
properties.As with other
QPaintDevice
subclasses, aQPainter
object is used to paint onto an instance of this class:QPainter painter; painter.begin(&generator); ... painter.end();Painting is performed in the same way as for any other paint device. However, it is necessary to use the
begin()
andend()
to explicitly begin and end painting on the device.The SVG Generator Example shows how the same painting commands can be used for painting a widget and writing an SVG file.
