Detailed Description¶
A rectangle is normally expressed as a top-left corner and a size. The size (width and height) of a
QRect
is always equivalent to the mathematical rectangle that forms the basis for its rendering.A
QRect
can be constructed with a set of left, top, width and height integers, or from aQPoint
and aQSize
. The following code creates two identical rectangles.r1 = QRect(100, 200, 11, 16) r2 = QRect(QPoint(100, 200), QSize(11, 16))There is a third constructor that creates a
QRect
using the top-left and bottom-right coordinates, but we recommend that you avoid using it. The rationale is that for historical reasons the values returned by thebottom()
andright()
functions deviate from the true bottom-right corner of the rectangle.The
QRect
class provides a collection of functions that return the various rectangle coordinates, and enable manipulation of these.QRect
also provides functions to move the rectangle relative to the various coordinates. In addition there is amoveTo()
function that moves the rectangle, leaving its top left corner at the given coordinates. Alternatively, thetranslate()
function moves the rectangle the given offset relative to the current position, and thetranslated()
function returns a translated copy of this rectangle.The
size()
function returns the rectangle’s dimensions as aQSize
. The dimensions can also be retrieved separately using thewidth()
andheight()
functions. To manipulate the dimensions use thesetSize()
,setWidth()
orsetHeight()
functions. Alternatively, the size can be changed by applying either of the functions setting the rectangle coordinates, for example,setBottom()
orsetRight()
.The
contains()
function tells whether a given point is inside the rectangle or not, and theintersects()
function returnstrue
if this rectangle intersects with a given rectangle. TheQRect
class also provides theintersected()
function which returns the intersection rectangle, and theunited()
function which returns the rectangle that encloses the given rectangle and this:
The
isEmpty()
function returnstrue
ifleft()
>right()
ortop()
>bottom()
. Note that an empty rectangle is not valid: TheisValid()
function returnstrue
ifleft()
<=right()
andtop()
<=bottom()
. A null rectangle (isNull()
== true) on the other hand, has both width and height set to 0.Note that due to the way
QRect
andQRectF
are defined, an emptyQRect
is defined in essentially the same way asQRectF
.Finally,
QRect
objects can be streamed as well as compared.
Rendering¶
When using an
anti-aliased
painter, the boundary line of aQRect
will be rendered symmetrically on both sides of the mathematical rectangle’s boundary line. But when using an aliased painter (the default) other rules apply.Then, when rendering with a one pixel wide pen the
QRect
‘s boundary line will be rendered to the right and below the mathematical rectangle’s boundary line.When rendering with a two pixels wide pen the boundary line will be split in the middle by the mathematical rectangle. This will be the case whenever the pen is set to an even number of pixels, while rendering with a pen with an odd number of pixels, the spare pixel will be rendered to the right and below the mathematical rectangle as in the one pixel case.
Logical representation
One pixel wide pen
Two pixel wide pen
Three pixel wide pen
Coordinates¶
The
QRect
class provides a collection of functions that return the various rectangle coordinates, and enable manipulation of these.QRect
also provides functions to move the rectangle relative to the various coordinates.For example the
left()
,setLeft()
andmoveLeft()
functions as an example:left()
returns the x-coordinate of the rectangle’s left edge,setLeft()
sets the left edge of the rectangle to the given x coordinate (it may change the width, but will never change the rectangle’s right edge) andmoveLeft()
moves the entire rectangle horizontally, leaving the rectangle’s left edge at the given x coordinate and its size unchanged.Note that for historical reasons the values returned by the
bottom()
andright()
functions deviate from the true bottom-right corner of the rectangle: Theright()
function returns **left()
+width()
- 1 and thebottom()
function returns **top()
+height()
- 1 . The same is the case for the point returned by thebottomRight()
convenience function. In addition, the x and y coordinate of thetopRight()
andbottomLeft()
functions, respectively, contain the same deviation from the true right and bottom edges.We recommend that you use
x()
+width()
andy()
+height()
to find the true bottom-right corner, and avoidright()
andbottom()
. Another solution is to useQRectF
: TheQRectF
class defines a rectangle in the plane using floating point accuracy for coordinates, and theright()
andbottom()
functions do return the right and bottom coordinates.It is also possible to add offsets to this rectangle’s coordinates using the
adjust()
function, as well as retrieve a new rectangle based on adjustments of the original one using theadjusted()
function. If either of the width and height is negative, use thenormalized()
function to retrieve a rectangle where the corners are swapped.In addition,
QRect
provides thegetCoords()
function which extracts the position of the rectangle’s top-left and bottom-right corner, and thegetRect()
function which extracts the rectangle’s top-left corner, width and height. Use thesetCoords()
andsetRect()
function to manipulate the rectangle’s coordinates and dimensions in one go.
