6 | <p>This demo shows how to use advanced vector techniques to draw text
|
---|
7 | using a <code>QPainterPath</code>.</p>
|
---|
8 |
|
---|
9 | <p>We define a vector deformation field in the shape of a lens and apply
|
---|
10 | this to all points in a path. This means that what is rendered on
|
---|
11 | screen is not pixel manipulation, but modified vector representations of
|
---|
12 | the glyphs themselves. This is visible from the high quality of the
|
---|
13 | antialiased edges for the deformed glyphs.</p>
|
---|
14 |
|
---|
15 | <p>To get a fairly complex path we allow the user to type in text and
|
---|
16 | convert the text to paths. This is done using the
|
---|
17 | <code>QPainterPath::addText()</code> function.</p>
|
---|
18 |
|
---|
19 | <p>The lens is drawn using a single call to <code>drawEllipse()</code>, using
|
---|
20 | a <code>QRadialGradient</code> to fill it with a specialized color table,
|
---|
21 | giving the effect of the Sun's reflection and a drop shadow. The lens
|
---|
22 | is cached as a pixmap for better performance.</p>
