Detailed Description

QGraphicsScene provides certain parameters to help control how the scale should be applied.

The origin is the point that the item is scaled from (i.e., it stays fixed relative to the parent as the rest of the item grows). By default the origin is QPointF(0, 0).

The parameters xScale, yScale, and zScale describe the scale factors to apply in horizontal, vertical, and depth directions. They can take on any value, including 0 (to collapse the item to a point) or negative value. A negative xScale value will mirror the item horizontally. A negative yScale value will flip the item vertically. A negative zScale will flip the item end for end.

See also QGraphicsTransform, QGraphicsItem::setScale(), and QTransform::scale().

Property Documentation

origin : QVector3D

This property holds the origin of the scale in 3D space.

All scaling will be done relative to this point (i.e., this point will stay fixed, relative to the parent, when the item is scaled).

Access functions:

QVector3D origin() const
void setOrigin(const QVector3D &point)

Notifier signal:

void originChanged()

See also xScale, yScale, and zScale.

xScale : qreal

This property holds the horizontal scale factor.

The scale factor can be any real number; the default value is 1.0. If you set the factor to 0.0, the item will be collapsed to a single point. If you provide a negative value, the item will be mirrored horizontally around its origin.

Access functions:

qreal xScale() const
void setXScale(qreal)

Notifier signal:

void xScaleChanged()

See also yScale, zScale, and origin.

yScale : qreal

This property holds the vertical scale factor.

The scale factor can be any real number; the default value is 1.0. If you set the factor to 0.0, the item will be collapsed to a single point. If you provide a negative value, the item will be flipped vertically around its origin.

Access functions:

qreal yScale() const
void setYScale(qreal)

Notifier signal:

void yScaleChanged()

See also xScale, zScale, and origin.

zScale : qreal

This property holds the depth scale factor.

The scale factor can be any real number; the default value is 1.0. If you set the factor to 0.0, the item will be collapsed to a single point. If you provide a negative value, the item will be flipped end for end around its origin.

Access functions:

qreal zScale() const
void setZScale(qreal)

Notifier signal:

void zScaleChanged()

See also xScale, yScale, and origin.

Member Function Documentation

QGraphicsScale::QGraphicsScale(QObject *parent = nullptr)

Constructs an empty QGraphicsScale object with the given parent.

[signal] void QGraphicsScale::originChanged()

QGraphicsScale emits this signal when its origin changes.

Note: Notifier signal for property origin.

See also QGraphicsScale::origin.

[signal] void QGraphicsScale::scaleChanged()

This signal is emitted whenever the xScale, yScale, or zScale of the object changes.

See also QGraphicsScale::xScale, QGraphicsScale::yScale, and QGraphicsScale::zScale.

[signal] void QGraphicsScale::xScaleChanged()

This signal is emitted whenever the xScale property changes.

Note: Notifier signal for property xScale.

This function was introduced in Qt 4.7.

[signal] void QGraphicsScale::yScaleChanged()

This signal is emitted whenever the yScale property changes.

Note: Notifier signal for property yScale.

This function was introduced in Qt 4.7.

[signal] void QGraphicsScale::zScaleChanged()

This signal is emitted whenever the zScale property changes.

Note: Notifier signal for property zScale.

This function was introduced in Qt 4.7.

[virtual] QGraphicsScale::~QGraphicsScale()

Destroys the graphics scale.

[override virtual] void QGraphicsScale::applyTo(QMatrix4x4 *matrix) const

Reimplements: QGraphicsTransform::applyTo(QMatrix4x4 *matrix) const.
