I wana convert a constant string into a pixmap .................

Can you elaborate ?

Are you trying to save the contents of a textbox/textedit as pixmap ?? If yes, you may have a look at QWidget::render

Use this

QPixmap myPix(100, 100);
        QPainter painter;
	painter.begin(&myPix);
	painter.drawText(myPix.rect(), Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignVCenter, "Hello to All");
	painter.end();

QPixmap myPix(100, 100);
        QPainter painter;
	painter.begin(&myPix);
	painter.drawText(myPix.rect(), Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignVCenter, "Hello to All");
	painter.end();

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

Add the "// NEW LINE" section to previous posted code

QPixmap myPix(100, 100);
        QPainter painter;
	painter.begin(&myPix);
 
// NEW LINES: START
        painter.setPen(Qt::yellow); // set Color to yellow
        painter.setFont(QFont("Times", 16, QFont::Bold));
// NEW LINES: STOP
 
	painter.drawText(myPix.rect(), Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignVCenter, "Hello to All");
	painter.end();

QPixmap myPix(100, 100);
        QPainter painter;
	painter.begin(&myPix);

// NEW LINES: START
        painter.setPen(Qt::yellow); // set Color to yellow
        painter.setFont(QFont("Times", 16, QFont::Bold));
// NEW LINES: STOP

	painter.drawText(myPix.rect(), Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignVCenter, "Hello to All");
	painter.end();

you solved my problem......thanx aonce again...........

But mcosta ,there is again a little problem is arising....i.e the pixmap does not contain whole string and how the set the background colour of this pixmap..................???

[mcosta]

You can use QPainter::fillRect()

....
painter.fillRect(myPix.rect(), QBrush(myColor));
painter.drawText(....);
....

....
painter.fillRect(myPix.rect(), QBrush(myColor));
painter.drawText(....);
....
