I tried masking but it's not working for me. May be I am doing it correctly.
If you can manage some time can you try?

I thought in this case this could be possible solution, but I wonder how to do that?
Thanks

Oh, tricky.
I suggest you rewrite the client app to pass along the coordinates and
only use rectangles. It seems the relevant regions of your images are
not always rectangular which makes image processing harder. Also you
would only need to transfer the regions and not the entire image (?).
If that is not an option you might try to use a mask to filter out the
white parts (have not tried that yet) or overwrite all white parts in
the source image with transparent color (Qt::transparent) and then paint
the entire source image above the target image. However this might not
be the most efficient solution.
