+/*!
+ \example demos/deform
+ \title Vector Deformation
+
+ This demo shows how to use advanced vector techniques to draw text
+ using a \c QPainterPath.
+
+ \image deform-demo.png
+
+ We define a vector deformation field in the shape of a lens and apply
+ this to all points in a path. This means that what is rendered on
+ screen is not pixel manipulation, but modified vector representations of
+ the glyphs themselves. This is visible from the high quality of the
+ antialiased edges for the deformed glyphs.
+
+ To get a fairly complex path we allow the user to type in text and
+ convert the text to paths. This is done using the
+ QPainterPath::addText() function.
+
+ The lens is drawn using a single call to QPainter::drawEllipse(),
+ using a QRadialGradient to fill it with a specialized color
+ table, giving the effect of the sun's reflection and a drop
+ shadow. The lens is cached as a pixmap for better performance.
