.SH DESCRIPTION
The QPaintDevice class is the base class of objects that can be painted.
.PP
A paint device is an abstraction of a two-dimensional space that can be drawn using a QPainter. The drawing capabilities are implemented by the subclasses QWidget, QPixmap, QPicture and QPrinter.
.PP
The default coordinate system of a paint device has its origin located at the top-left position. X increases to the right and Y increases downward. The unit is one pixel. There are several ways to set up a user-defined coordinate system using the painter - for example, by QPainter::setWorldMatrix().
.PP
Example (draw on a paint device):
.PP
.nf
.br
void MyWidget::paintEvent( QPaintEvent * )
.br
{
.br
    QPainter p;                       // our painter
.br
    p.begin( this );                  // start painting the widget
.br
    p.setPen( red );                  // red outline
.br
    p.setBrush( yellow );             // yellow fill
.br
    p.drawEllipse( 10, 20, 100,100 ); // 100x100 ellipse at positin (10, 20)
.br
    p.end();                          // painting done
.br
}
.fi
.PP
The bit block transfer is an extremely useful operation for copying pixels from one paint device to another (or to itself). It is implemented as the global function bitBlt().
.PP
Example (scroll widget contents 10 pixels to the right):
.PP
.nf
.br
    bitBlt( myWidget, 10, 0, myWidget );
.br
.fi
.PP
\fBWarning:\fR Qt requires that a QApplication object must exist before any paint devices can be created. Paint devices access window system resources, and these resources are not initialized before an application object is created.
.PP
See also Graphics Classes and Image Processing Classes.
.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
.SH "QPaintDevice::QPaintDevice ( uint devflags )\fC [protected]\fR"
Constructs a paint device with internal flags \fIdevflags\fR. This constructor can be invoked only from subclasses of QPaintDevice.
.SH "QPaintDevice::~QPaintDevice ()\fC [virtual]\fR"
Destroys the paint device and frees window system resources.
.SH "bool QPaintDevice::cmd ( int, QPainter *, QPDevCmdParam * )\fC [virtual protected]\fR"
Internal virtual function that interprets drawing commands from the painter.
.PP
Implemented by subclasses that have no direct support for drawing graphics (external paint devices - for example, QPicture).
.SH "int QPaintDevice::devType () const"
Returns the device type identifier, which is \fCQInternal::Widget\fR if the device is a QWidget, \fCQInternal::Pixmap\fR if it's a QPixmap, \fCQInternal::Printer\fR if it's a QPrinter, \fCQInternal::Picture\fR if it's a QPicture or \fCQInternal::UndefinedDevice\fR in other cases (which should never happen).
.SH "Qt::HANDLE QPaintDevice::handle () const\fC [virtual]\fR"
Returns the window system handle of the paint device, for low-level access. Using this function is not portable.
.PP
The HANDLE type varies with platform; see qpaintdevice.h and qwindowdefs.h for details.
.PP
See also x11Display().
.SH "bool QPaintDevice::isExtDev () const"
Returns TRUE if the device is an external paint device; otherwise returns FALSE.
.PP
External paint devices cannot be bitBlt()'ed from. QPicture and QPrinter are external paint devices.
.SH "int QPaintDevice::metric ( int ) const\fC [virtual protected]\fR"
Internal virtual function that returns paint device metrics.
.PP
Please use the QPaintDeviceMetrics class instead.
.PP
Reimplemented in QPixmap, QWidget and QPicture.
.SH "bool QPaintDevice::paintingActive () const"
Returns TRUE if the device is being painted, i.e. someone has called QPainter::begin() but not yet QPainter::end() for this device; otherwise returns FALSE.
.PP
See also QPainter::isActive().
.SH "int QPaintDevice::x11AppCells ()\fC [static]\fR"

.PP
See also handle().
.SH "int QPaintDevice::x11AppDpiX ()\fC [static]\fR"
Returns the horizontal DPI of the X display (X11 only). Using this function is not portable. See QPaintDeviceMetrics for portable access to related information. Using this function is not portable.
.PP
See also x11AppDpiY(), x11SetAppDpiX() and QPaintDeviceMetrics::logicalDpiX().

.SH RELATED FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
.SH "void bitBlt ( QPaintDevice * dst, int dx, int dy, const QPaintDevice * src, int sx, int sy, int sw, int sh, Qt::RasterOp rop, bool ignoreMask )"
Copies a block of pixels from \fIsrc\fR to \fIdst\fR, perhaps merging each pixel according to the raster operation \fIrop\fR. \fIsx\fR, \fIsy\fR is the top-left pixel in \fIsrc\fR (0, 0) by default, \fIdx\fR, \fIdy\fR is the top-left position in \fIdst\fR and \fIsw\fR, \fIsh\fR is the size of the copied block (all of \fIsrc\fR by default).
.PP
The most common values for \fIrop\fR are CopyROP and XorROP; the Qt::RasterOp documentation defines all the possible values.
.PP
If \fIignoreMask\fR is TRUE (the default is FALSE) and \fIsrc\fR is a masked QPixmap, the entire blit is masked by \fIsrc\fR->mask().
.PP
If \fIsrc\fR, \fIdst\fR, \fIsw\fR or \fIsh\fR is 0, bitBlt() does nothing. If \fIsw\fR or \fIsh\fR is negative bitBlt() copies starting at \fIsx\fR (and resp. \fIsy\fR) and ending at the right end (resp. bottom) of \fIsrc\fR.
.PP
\fIsrc\fR must be a QWidget or QPixmap. You cannot blit from a QPrinter, for example. bitBlt() does nothing if you attempt to blit from an unsupported device.
.PP
bitBlt() does nothing if \fIsrc\fR has a greater depth than \fIdst\fR. If you need to, for example, draw a 24-bit pixmap on an 8-bit widget, you must use drawPixmap().
.SH "void bitBlt ( QPaintDevice * dst, const QPoint & dp, const QPaintDevice * src, const QRect & sr, RasterOp rop )"
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
.PP
Overloaded bitBlt() with the destination point \fIdp\fR and source rectangle \fIsr\fR.
