This follows the Qt standard, and there is no particular reason why .qdoc files cannot live in src.

Basically anything but a select query will fail. This fixes this by making the user explicitly prepare the query if they want to, and the blame then falls on them if they try and prepare a statement likely to fail. This fix also seems to result in a speedup for single-execution queries, possibly due to reduction in roundtrip communications. All autotests pass & behaviour conforms to documentation.

+ \keyword QGraphicsView GraphicsView Porting Graphics Canvas
+ \since 4.2
+
+ Graphics View provides a surface for managing and interacting with a large
+ number of custom-made 2D graphical items, and a view widget for
+ visualizing the items, with support for zooming and rotation. Graphics
+ View was introduced in Qt 4.2, replacing its predecessor, QCanvas. For
+ more on Graphics View, see \l{The Graphics View Framework}.
+
+ This document walks through the steps needed, class by class and function
+ by function, to port a QCanvas application to Graphics View.
+
+ \tableofcontents
+
+ Qt 4.2 provides two complete examples of Q3Canvas applications ported to
+ Graphics View:
+
+ \list
+ \o \l{Ported Canvas Example}, the canvas example from Qt 3.
+ \o \l{Ported Asteroids Example}, the Asteroids game from the Qt 3 demo.
+ \endlist
+
+ \section1 Introduction
+
+ Conceptually, the Graphics View classes from Qt 4 and the Canvas
+ classes from Qt 3 provide similar functionality using a similar
+ design. Instead of "canvas", we use the term "scene". Otherwise, the
+ class names and functions are almost the same as in Qt 3. The easiest
+ classes to port will be QCanvas and QCanvasView. Experience shows that
+ most time is spent porting the item classes, depending on the
+ complexity of the QCanvasItem classes you have been using before.
+
+ This porting guide will assume you have already ported your
+ application to Qt 4, by making use of Q3Canvas. If you have not done
+ so already, as a first step, run the \l qt3to4 tool on your
+ project. This tool will automate the most tedious part of the porting
+ effort.
+
+ Some additional steps are usually required before your application
+ will compile and run. You can read more about the porting process in
+ \l{Porting to Qt 4}.
+
+ \section1 Porting from Q3Canvas
+
+ QGraphicsScene is the closest equivalent to Q3Canvas. There
+ are some noticable differences in this new API: Whereas the
+ Q3Canvas classes use integer precision, QGraphicsScene is
+ entirely based on double coordinates, with graphical
+ primitives such as QPointF instead of QPoint, QRectF instead
+ of QRect, and QPolygonF and QPainterPath. The canvas area is
+ defined by a scene rectangle, allowing negative coordinates,
+ as opposed to Q3Canvas, which only defines a size (QSize), and
+ whose top-left corner is always (0, 0).
+
+ In addition, there is no explicit support for canvas tiles
+ anymore; see \l{Porting scenes with tiles} for more
+ information. The chunks-based indexing system has been
+ replaced with an implicitly maintained internal BSP tree.
+
+ \section2 Porting table
+
+ \table
+ \header \o Q3Canvas \o QGraphicsScene
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::Q3Canvas() \o There is no QPixmap based
+ constructor, and the concept of tiles is gone. You can use
+ QGraphicsScene::backgroundBrush to set a brush pattern for
+ the background, or reimplement
+ QGraphicsScene::drawBackground() in a QGraphicsScene
+ subclass (see \l{Porting scenes with tiles}). In addition,
+ the QGraphicsScene geometry is provided as a full
+ QRectF. Instead of Q3Canvas(int width, int height), you can
+ use QGraphicsScene(int top, int left, int width, int
+ height).
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::allItems() \o QGraphicsScene::items()
+ returns a list of all items on the scene.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::backgroundColor() \o You can assign a color for the
+ background through the QGraphicsScene::backgroundBrush
+ or QGraphicsView::backgroundBrush properties.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::backgroundPixmap() \o You can set a tiled
+ pixmap for the background through
+ QGraphicsScene::backgroundBrush or
+ QGraphicsView::backgroundBrush. For more control on the pixmap
+ positioning, you can reimplement
+ QGraphicsScene::drawBackground() or
+ QGraphicsView::drawBackground().
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::chunkSize() \o The closest equivalent to the
+ chunks size in Q3Canvas is the depth of QGraphicsScene's BSP
+ tree. QGraphicsScene assigns a depth automatically, and the
+ size of each scene segment depends on this depth, and
+ QGraphicsScene::sceneRect(). See
+ QGraphicsScene::itemIndexMethod.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::collisions() \o QGraphicsScene provides
+ several means to detect item collisions. The
+ QGraphicsScene::items() overloads return items that collide
+ with a point, a rectangle, a polygon, or an arbitrary vector
+ path (QPainterPath). You can also call
+ QGraphicsScene::collidingItems() to determine collision with
+ an item.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::drawArea() \o The QGraphicsScene::render()
+ function provides the original behavior
+ Q3Canvas::drawArea(). In addition, you can pass a source
+ rectangle for rendering only parts of the scene, and a
+ destination rectangle for rendering onto designated area of
+ the destination device. QGraphicsScene::render() can
+ optionally transform the source rectangle to fit into the
+ destination rectangle. See \l{Printing}
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::onCanvas() \o The is no equivalent to this
+ function in Graphics View. However, you can combine
+ QGraphicsScene::sceneRect() and QRectF::intersects():
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_porting4-canvas.qdoc 0
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::rect() \o The equivalent,
+ QGraphicsScene::sceneRect(), returns a QRectF (double
+ precision coordinates). Its top-left corner can be an
+ arbitrary coordinate (Q3Canvas::rect().topLeft() is always (0,
+ 0)).
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::resize() \o You can call
+ QGraphicsScene::setSceneRect(0, 0, width, height) instead.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::retune() \o See
+ QGraphicsScene::itemIndexMethod. You can tune the indexing by
+ setting a suitable sceneRect(). The optimal depth of
+ QGraphicsScene's BSP tree is determined automatically.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::setAdvancePeriod() \o There is no concept of
+ an advance period in the new API; instead, you can connect
+ QTimer::timeout() to the QGraphicsScene::advance() slot to
+ obtain similar functionality. This will cause all items'
+ QGraphicsItem::advance() function to be called. See also
+ QGraphicsItemAnimation.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::setAllChanged() \o You can call
+ QGraphicsScene::update() with no arguments.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::setChanged() \o QGraphicsScene::update()
+ will trigger a repaint of the whole scene, or parts of the
+ scene.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::setDoubleBuffering() \o Q3Canvas' double
+ buffering enabled cacheing of the scene contents in device
+ (i.e., viewport) coordinates. This cache layer has been moved
+ to the view instead; you can cache QGraphicsScene's background
+ through
+ QGraphicsView::setCacheMode(). QGraphicsView::resetCachedContent()
+ will reset the areas of the cache that has changed.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::tile() \o See \l{Porting scenes with tiles}.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::setTiles() \o See \l{Porting scenes with tiles}.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::setUnchanged() \o There is no equivalent in
+ Graphics View. This call can usually be removed with no side
+ effects.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::setUpdatePeriod() \o There is no concept of an
+ update period in the new API; instead, you can connect
+ QTimer::timeout() to the QGraphicsScene::update() slot to obtain
+ similar functionality. See also QGraphicsItemAnimation.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::size() \o
+ \tt{QGraphicsScene::sceneRect().size()} returns a QSizeF, with
+ double precision coordinates.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::validChunk() \o To determine if an area is
+ inside the scene area or not, you can combine
+ QRectF::intersects() with QGraphicsScene::sceneRect().
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::resized() \o QGraphicsScene emits
+ \l{QGraphicsScene::sceneRectChanged()}{sceneRectChanged()}
+ whenever the scene rect changes.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::drawBackground() \o You can reimplement
+ QGraphicsScene::drawBackground() to render the scene
+ background. You can also reimplement
+ QGraphicsView::drawBackground() to override this background if
+ you need different backgrounds for different views.
+
+ \row \o Q3Canvas::drawForeground() \o You can reimplement
+ QGraphicsScene::drawForeground() to render the scene
+ foreground. You can also reimplement
+ QGraphicsView::drawForeground() to override this foreground if
+ you need different foregrounds for different views.
+
+ \endtable
+
+ \section2 Porting scenes with tiles
+
+ QGraphicsScene does not provide an API for tiles. However, you
+ can achieve similar behavior by drawing pixmaps in a reimplementation of
+ QGraphicsScene::drawBackground().
+
+ Q3Canvas' tile support is based on providing one pixmap
+ containing tiles of a fixed width and height, and then
+ accessing them (reading and replacing tiles) by index. The
+ tiles in the pixmap are arranged from the left to right, top
+ to bottom.

+ \row \i 4 \i 5 \i 6 \i 7
+ \endtable
+
+ With Graphics View, this pixmap can be stored as a member of a
+ subclass of QGraphicsScene. The three main functions that make
+ out the public tile API can then be declared as new members of
+ this class. Here is one example of how to implement tile support:
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_porting4-canvas.qdoc 1
+
+ Depending on how your scene uses tiles, you may be able to
+ simplify this approach. In this example, we will try to mimic the behavior
+ of the Q3Canvas functions.
+
+ We start by creating a subclass of QGraphicsScene ("TileScene").
+ In this class, we declare two of the tile
+ functions from Q3Canvas, and we then add two helper function that returns the
+ rectangle for a certain tile in our tile pixmap. We will use a
+ two-dimensional vector of ints to keep track of what tiles should
+ be used at what parts of the scene.
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_porting4-canvas.qdoc 2
+
+ In setTiles(), we store the pixmap and tile properties as
+ members of the class. Then we resize the tiles vector
+ to match the width and height of our tile grid.
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_porting4-canvas.qdoc 3
+
+ The setTile() function updates the tiles index, and then
+ updates the corresponding rect in the scene by calling
+ tileRect().
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_porting4-canvas.qdoc 4
+
+ The first tileRect() function returns a QRect for the tile at
+ position (x, y).
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_porting4-canvas.qdoc 5
+
+ The second tileRect() function returns a QRect for a tile number.
+ With these functions in place, we can implement the drawBackground()
+ function.
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_porting4-canvas.qdoc 6
+
+ In drawBackground(), we redraw all tiles that have been
+ exposed by intersecting each tile rect with the exposed background
+ area.
+
+ \section1 Porting from Q3CanvasView
+
+ The closest equivalent to Q3CanvasView in Graphics View is
+ called QGraphicsView. In most cases, this is the easiest
+ class to port. In addition to providing all of Q3CanvasView's
+ functionality, QGraphicsView includes some useful new features. You
+ can read more about this in QGraphicsView's documentation.
+
+ \section2 Porting table
+
+ \table
+ \header \o Q3CanvasView \o QGraphicsView
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasView::Q3CanvasView() \o QGraphicsView provides
+ the same constructors as Q3CanvasView, but without the name
+ and flags arguments. You can set the name by calling
+ \l{QWidget::setObjectName()}{setObjectName()}, and the flags by
+ calling \l{QWidget::setWindowFlags()}{setWindowFlags()}.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasView::canvas() \o QGraphicsView::scene()
+ returns the scene that is currently associated with the
+ view. QGraphicsScene also provides the opposite function,
+ QGraphicsScene::views(), which returns a list of views
+ observing the scene.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasView::inverseWorldMatrix() \o You can call
+ QGraphicsView::matrix() and QMatrix::inverted().
+ QGraphicsView::mapToScene() and QGraphicsView::mapFromScene()
+ allow transforming of viewport shapes to scene shapes, and
+ vice versa.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasView::setCanvas() \o QGraphicsView::setScene().
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasView::setWorldMatrix() \o
+ QGraphicsView::setMatrix(), QGraphicsView::rotate(),
+ QGraphicsView::scale(), QGraphicsView::shear() and
+ QGraphicsView::translate().
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasView::worldMatrix() \o QGraphicsView::matrix()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasView::drawContents() \o The
+ QGraphicsView::drawBackground() function draws the background,
+ QGraphicsView::drawItems() draws the items, and
+ QGraphicsView::drawForeground() draws the foreground of the
+ scene in scene coordinates. You can also reimplement these
+ functions in QGraphicsScene.
+
+ \endtable
+
+ \section2 Other differences
+
+ QGraphicsView can cache the visible contents of the scene,
+ similar to how Q3Canvas::setDoubleBuffering() could cache the
+ entire scene contents. You can call
+ QGraphicsView::setCacheMode() to configure cacheing, and
+ QGraphicsView::resetCachedContent() invalidates the cache.
+
+ For improved navigation support, you can set a resize or
+ transformation anchor through QGraphicsView::resizeAnchor and
+ QGraphicsView::transformationAnchor. This allows you to easily
+ rotate and zoom the view while keeping the center fixed, or
+ zooming towards the position under the mouse cursor. In
+ addition, if you set the QGraphicsView::dragMode of the view,
+ QGraphicsView will provide rubber band selection or
+ click-and-pull navigation using the
+ \l{Qt::OpenHandCursor}{OpenHandCursor} and
+ \l{Qt::ClosedHandCursor}{ClosedHandCursor} cursors.
+
+ \section1 Porting from Q3CanvasItem
+
+ The closest equivalent to Q3CanvasItem in Graphics View is
+ called QGraphicsItem. Deriving from this class is very common,
+ and because of that, porting from Q3CanvasItem often involves
+ more work than Q3Canvas and Q3CanvasView.
+
+ Q3CanvasItem has become easier to use, easier to subclass, and more
+ powerful with QGraphicsItem. The key difference from Q3CanvasItem lies
+ in event propagation and item groups, but you will also find several
+ convenient new features, such as support for tooltips, cursors, item
+ transformation and drag and drop. You can read all about QGraphicsItem
+ in its own class documentation.
+
+ This section starts with a table that shows how to port each function
+ from Q3CanvasItem to QGraphicsItem. Immediately after that, each of
+ Q3CanvasItem's standard subclasses have a section of their own.
+
+ \table
+ \header \o Q3CanvasItem \o QGraphicsItem
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::advance() \o QGraphicsItem::advance() is
+ provided for compatibility. QGraphicsScene::advance() calls
+ QGraphicsItem::advance() for all items. See also QTimeLine and
+ QGraphicsItemAnimation.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::animated() \o No equivalent; all items
+ are advanced by QGraphicsScene::advance().
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::boundingRectAdvanced() \o No
+ equivalent. You can translate QGraphicsItem::boundingRect()
+ instead (see QRectF::translate()).
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::canvas() \o QGraphicsItem::scene()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::collidesWith() \o
+ QGraphicsItem::collidesWithItem() and
+ QGraphicsItem::collidesWithPath().
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::collisions() \o
+ QGraphicsItem::collidingItems() returns a list of all items
+ that collide with an item. You can specify whether you want
+ fast, rough estimate collision between bounding rectangles, or
+ the slower, more accurate shapes.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::draw() \o QGraphicsItem::paint(). See
+ also QStyleOptionGraphicsItem, QGraphicsScene::drawItems() and
+ QGraphicsView::drawItems().
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::hide() \o QGraphicsItem::hide() or
+ QGraphicsItem::setVisible(). \l{QGraphicsItem}s are \e visible by
+ default; \l{Q3CanvasItem}s, however, are not.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::isActive() \o No equivalent. To achieve
+ similar behavior, you can add this property in a custom
+ subclass of QGraphicsItem.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::isVisible() \o
+ QGraphicsItem::isVisible(). \l{QGraphicsItem}s are \e visible by
+ default; \l{Q3CanvasItem}s, however, are not.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::move() \o You can call
+ QGraphicsItem::setPos() to change the position of the item.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::rtti() \o QGraphicsItem::type() and qgraphicsitem_cast().
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::setActive() \o No equivalent.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::setAnimated() \o No equivalent; all
+ items are by default "animated" (i.e.,
+ QGraphicsScene::advance() advances all items on the scene).
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::setCanvas() \o You can call
+ QGraphicsScene::addItem(), or pass a pointer to the canvas to
+ QGraphicsItem's constructor.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::setVelocity() \o No equivalent. You can
+ add x and y velocity as member data of your class, and call
+ QGraphicsItem::moveBy(x, y) from inside
+ QGraphicsItem::advance(). See also QTimeLine and
+ QGraphicsItemAnimation.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::setVisible() \o
+ QGraphicsItem::setVisible(). \l{QGraphicsItem}s are \e visible by
+ default; \l{Q3CanvasItem}s, however, are not.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::setX() \o QGraphicsItem::setPos()
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::setY() \o QGraphicsItem::setPos()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::setXVelocity() \o No equivalent.
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::setYVelocity() \o No equivalent.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::setZ() \o QGraphicsItem::setZValue()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::show() \o QGraphicsItem::show() or
+ QGraphicsItem::setVisible(). \l{QGraphicsItem}s are \e visible by
+ default; \l{Q3CanvasItem}s, however, are not.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::xVelocity() \o No equivalent.
+ \row \o Q3CanvasItem::yVelocity() \o No equivalent.
+
+ \endtable
+
+ Note that some virtual functions that have passed on to
+ QGraphicsItem have lost their virtuality. An example is
+ Q3CanvasItem::moveBy(), which was often used to track movement of
+ items. In this case, the virtual QGraphicsItem::itemChange() has
+ taken over as a substitute.
+
+ \section2 Q3CanvasPolygonalItem
+
+ The closest equivalent to Q3CanvasPolygonalItem in
+ Graphics View is called QAbstractGraphicsShapeItem. Unlike
+ Q3CanvasPolygonalItem, it does not define area points
+ (Q3CanvasPolygonalItem::areaPoints()); instead, each
+ item's geometry is stored as a member of the subclasses.
+
+ The Q3CanvasPolygonalItem::drawShape() function is no longer
+ available; instead, you can set the brush and pen from inside
+ QGraphicsItem::paint().
+
+ \table
+ \header \o Q3CanvasPolygonalItem \o QAbstractGraphicsShapeItem
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasPolygonalItem::areaPoints() \o No equivalent; each
+ item's geometry is stored in the respective subclass.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasPolygonalItem::areaPointsAdvanced() \o No
+ equivalent; you can use QPolygonF::translate() or
+ QPainterPath::translate() instead.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasPolygonalItem::drawShape() \o
+ QGraphicsItem::paint(). You can set the pen and brush from inside
+ this function.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasPolygonalItem::invalidate() \o Call
+ QGraphicsItem::prepareGeometryChange() before changing the
+ item's geometry.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasPolygonalItem::isValid() \o No equivalent;
+ items' geometry is always in a valid state.
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasPolygonalItem::winding() \o This function is only
+ useful for polygon items and path items; see
+ QGraphicsPolygonItem::fillRule(), and QPainterPath::fillRule() for
+ QGraphicsPathItem.
+
+ \endtable
+
+ \section2 Q3CanvasEllipse
+
+ The closest equivalent to Q3CanvasEllipse in Graphics View
+ is called QGraphicsEllipseItem. The most noticable
+ difference to QGraphicsEllipseItem is that the ellipse is
+ not longer drawn centered around its position; rather, it
+ is drawn using a bounding QRectF, just like
+ QPainter::drawEllipse().
+
+ For compatibility, you may want to shift the ellipse up and to the
+ left to keep the ellipse centered. Example:
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_porting4-canvas.qdoc 7
+
+ Note: QGraphicsEllipseItem uses QAbstractGraphicsShapeItem::pen()
+ for outlines, whereas Q3CanvasEllipse did not use
+ Q3CanvasPolygonalItem::pen().
+
+ \table
+ \header \o Q3CanvasEllipse \o QGraphicsEllipseItem
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasEllipse::angleLength() \o QGraphicsEllipseItem::spanAngle()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasEllipse::angleStart() \o QGraphicsEllipseItem::startAngle()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasEllipse::setAngles() \o
+ QGraphicsEllipseItem::setStartAngle() and
+ QGraphicsEllipseItem::setSpanAngle()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasEllipse::setSize() \o QGraphicsEllipseItem::setRect()
+
+ \endtable
+
+ \section2 Q3CanvasLine
+
+ The closest equivalent to Q3CanvasLine in Graphics View is
+ called QGraphicsLineItem.
+
+ \table
+ \header \o Q3CanvasLine \o QGraphicsLineItem
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasLine::endPoint() \o QGraphicsLineItem::line() and QLineF::p2()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasLine::setPoints() \o QGraphicsLineItem::setLine()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasLine::startPoint() \o QGraphicsLineItem::line()
+ and QLineF::p1()
+
+ \endtable
+
+ \section2 Q3CanvasPolygon
+
+ The closest equivalent to Q3CanvasPolygon in Graphics View
+ is called QGraphicsPolygonItem.
+
+ \table
+ \header \o Q3CanvasPolygon \o QGraphicsPolygonItem
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasPolygon::areaPoints() \o
+ QGraphicsPolygonItem::polygon() and QGraphicsItem::mapToParent()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasPolygon::points() \o QGraphicsPolygonItem::polygon()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasPolygon::setPoints() \o QGraphicsPolygonItem::setPolygon()
+
+ \endtable
+
+ \section2 Q3CanvasSpline
+
+ The closest equivalent to Q3CanvasSpline in Graphics View
+ is called QGraphicsPathItem. This item can be used to
+ describe any type of path supported by QPainter.
+
+ Q3CanvasSpline takes its control points as a Q3PointArray, but
+ QPainterPath operates on a sequence of calls to
+ QPainterPath::moveTo() and QPainterPath::cubicTo(). Here is how
+ you can convert a bezier curve Q3PointArray to a QPainterPath:
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_porting4-canvas.qdoc 8
+
+ Note: QGraphicsPathItem uses QAbstractGraphicsShapeItem::pen() for
+ outlines, whereas Q3CanvasSpline did not use
+ Q3CanvasPolygonalItem::pen().
+
+ \table
+ \header \o Q3CanvasSpline \o QGraphicsPathItem
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasSpline::closed() \o No equivalent. You can call
+ QPainterPath::closeSubPath() to close a subpath explicitly.
+
+ \endtable
+
+ \section2 Q3CanvasRectangle
+
+ The closest equivalent to Q3CanvasRectangle in Graphics
+ View is called QGraphicsRectItem.
+
+ \table
+ \header \o Q3CanvasRectangle \o QGraphicsRectItem
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasRectangle::height() \o QGraphicsRectItem::rect()
+ and QRectF::height()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasRectangle::setSize() \o QGraphicsRectItem::setRect()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasRectangle::size() \o QGraphicsRectItem::rect() and QRectF::size()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasRectangle::width() \o QGraphicsRectItem::rect() and QRectF::width()
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasRectangle::chunks() \o No equivalent.
+
+ \endtable
+
+ \section2 Q3CanvasSprite
+
+ Q3CanvasSprite is the item class that differs the most from its
+ Q3Canvas predecessor. The closest resemblance of Q3CanvasSprite in
+ Graphics View is QGraphicsPixmapItem.
+
+ Q3CanvasSprite supports animated pixmaps; QGraphicsPixmapItem,
+ however, is a simple single-frame pixmap item. If all you need is
+ a pixmap item, porting is straight-forward. If you do need the
+ animation support, extra work is required; there is no direct
+ porting approach.
+
+ For the \l{Ported Asteroids Example}, a subclass of
+ QGraphicsPixmapItem is used to replace Q3CanvasSprite, storing a
+ list of pixmaps and a frame counter. The animation is advanced in
+ QGraphicsItem::advance().
+
+ \section3 Q3CanvasPixmap, Q3CanvasPixmapArray
+
+ These classes have been removed from the API. You can use
+ QPixmap instead of Q3CanvasPixmap, and QList instead of
+ Q3CanvasPixmapArray.
+
+ Q3CanvasPixmapArray included convenience for loading a
+ sequence of pixmaps or masks using a path with a wildcard (see
+ Q3CanvasPixmapArray::readPixmaps() and
+ Q3CanvasPixmapArray::readCollisionMasks()). To achieve similar
+ functionality using Graphics View, you can load the images by
+ using QDir:
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_porting4-canvas.qdoc 9
+
+ \section2 Q3CanvasText
+
+ Q3CanvasText has been split into two classes in Graphics View:
+ QGraphicsSimpleTextItem and QGraphicsTextItem. For porting,
+ QGraphicsSimpleTextItem should be adequate. QGraphicsTextItem
+ provides advanced document structuring features similar to that of
+ QTextEdit, and it also allows interaction (e.g., editing and
+ selection).
+
+ \table
+ \header \o Q3CanvasText \o QGraphicsSimpleTextItem
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasText::color() \o QGraphicsSimpleTextItem::pen().
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasText::setColor() \o QGraphicsSimpleTextItem::setPen().
+
+ \row \o Q3CanvasText::textFlags() \o Use QGraphicsTextItem instead.
+
+ \endtable
+
+
+ \section2 Q3CanvasItemList
+
+ Use QList instead.
+
+ \section1 Other Resources
+
+ The \l{Porting to Qt 4.2's Graphics View} article in Qt Quarterly 21 covered the
+ process of porting the Qt 3 canvas example to Qt 4.
+ The result of this is the \l{Ported Canvas Example}{Ported Canvas} example.
