turning off bounding rectangle around QGraphicsPixmapItem

[spud]

This is the default way of a QGraphicsItem to show it has been selected.
If you don't need the feature you could call

item->setFlag(QGraphicsItem::ItemIsSelectable, false)

item->setFlag(QGraphicsItem::ItemIsSelectable, false)

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

otherwise you have to subclass QGraphicsPixmapItem and override the paint method.

... and chance the QStyleOptionGraphicsItem (e.g. remove QStyle::State_HasFocus). Search the forum. This question was asked several times.
