MouseMoveEvent deal between QGraphicsView and QGraphicsItem

[aamer4yu]

You will need to store a variable for color.
Say you have QColor m_color in your graphics item class.
Then in paint event you do the following -

paint()
{
      QColor color = m_color;
      if(option->state & QStyle::State_MouseOver)
          color = m_color.dark();
 
 
       painter->fillRect(boundingRect(),color);
}

paint()
{
      QColor color = m_color;
      if(option->state & QStyle::State_MouseOver)
          color = m_color.dark();
 

       painter->fillRect(boundingRect(),color);
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

thats it, and now when you hover over the item, it will become dark.
Remember to set QGraphicsItem::setAcceptHoverEvents to true
