PySide6.QtCanvasPainter

Detailed Description

Provides hardware-accelerated painting API on QRhi.

The Qt Canvas Painter module provides classes for hardware-accelerated imperative 2D painting. This painting API is available for both Qt Quick and Qt Widgets, and can also be used directly with QRhi. The API design generally follows HTML canvas 2d context, with some reductions and some additions.

Compared to QPainter, the Qt Canvas Painter is more compact and has fewer abstractions, aiming to perform optimally on QRhi. Qt Canvas Painter is designed for GPU rendering and does not have a CPU backend as QPainter does.

Note

Qt Canvas Painter in 6.11 is in Technology Preview, excluding its API from Qt’s compatibility promises.
