[Qt-interest] QGraphicsView to PDF or high resolution

[Deepak Chandran]

I need to print the contents of a Graphics View to a file, but the code below does not print exactly what I see on the screen. The outlines (pen) on polygons are missing. What is missing?

        QPrinter printer(QPrinter::HighResolution);
        printer.setOutputFormat(QPrinter::PdfFormat);
        printer.setOrientation(QPrinter::Landscape);
        printer.setOutputFileName(tr("myFile.pdf"));
       
        //view is the QGraphicsView that I want to print
       QPainter painter(printer);
        painter.setRenderHint(QPainter::Antialiasing);
       
       if (view) 
            view->render(&painter); 

Also, I would prefer vector diagrams rather than "high resolution". I tried to use Svg printer, but the file was very tiny. What is the correct way to generate vector image file of the graphics view?

Thanks.
