How can I do something like QGraphicsItem::setShear?

[wayfaerer]

I'm trying to shear a QGraphicsItem with a custom transformOriginPoint, but there is no QGraphicsItem::setShear (like there is for rotation: QGraphicsItem::setRotation).

I realize I could create my own transform matrix and use QGraphicsItem::setTransform, but it doesn't seem to take into account the transformOriginPoint, which in my case is not (0,0).

For example, the following two examples produce completely different behavior:

// takes into account the transformOriginPoint
myItem->setRotation(30);

// takes into account the transformOriginPoint
myItem->setRotation(30);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

// does not take into account the transformOriginPoint
QTransform hi;
hi.rotate(30);
myItem->setTransform(hi);

// does not take into account the transformOriginPoint
QTransform hi;
hi.rotate(30);
myItem->setTransform(hi);
