    Default Draw grid / Drop images onto grid / Turn grid into PNG

    Hi,

    I'm trying to make a program where you choose a texture, and size, and it will draw a grid. I've got this part working to an extent using QGraphicsScene & a GraphicsView.


    Qt Code:
    1. void MainWindow::on_btnDrawGrid_clicked()
    2. {
    3. ui->graphicsView->setScene(scene);
    4.  
    5. int height = ui->graphicsView->height();
    6. int height2 = height / ui->txtGridX->text().toInt();
    7. int length = ui->graphicsView->width();
    8. int length2 = length / ui->txtGridY->text().toInt();
    9.  
    10. for (int x=0; x<=height; x+=height2)
    11. scene->addLine(x,0,x,height, QPen(Qt::red));
    12.  
    13. for (int y=0; y<=length; y+=length2)
    14. scene->addLine(0,y,length,y, QPen(Qt::red));
    15.  
    16. ui->graphicsView->fitInView(scene->itemsBoundingRect());
    17. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    The next part is what I am stuck on. I want to drag and drop images onto the grid, move them around etc. Then, when I press save I need it to interpret the grid with images, and draw a PNG file with different colours representing the different bits of the grid, texture etc.

    Any help and/or guidance would be much appreciated.

    Regards,

    Richard

    Implement the drag event handlers in a QGraphicsScene subclass and create QGraphicsPixmapItems or subclasses thereof for each dropped image.
    For rendering the result see QGraphicsScene::render()

    Cheers,
