[Qt-interest] QGraphicsView coordinates

[Phil]

Thank you for reading this.

I'm trying to modernise an application that I created eight years ago and have 
run into a display problem. In that application I have displayed a map, some 
text and ploted a few points.

This is how I had achieved that using Qt3 but that option seems not to be 
available under Qt4. I can now only paint on a dialog and not a frame. The 
following now fails on the paint constructor. "mapFrame" is a frame on a main 
window dialog created with Designer and "paintMap" is a function that draws 
the pixmap graphic and adds the text.

void pest::paintEvent(QPaintEvent*)
{
  QPainter paint(mapFrame,this);

  paintMap(&paint);
}

If I can no longer paint on a frame (maybe I still can but with a different 
method) can I use QGraphicsView instead? If so, how do I pass coordinates to 
QGraphicsScene so that, for instance, I can place text at a particular fixed 
point?
