[Qt-interest] Aligning QBrush texture

[Josh]

Hello all,

In painting a widget (in it's paint event) I draw a rectangle in the 
middle of the widget. The rectrangle has a QBrush with a pixmap background 
that is small and so tiles in the rectangle. I would like to align the 
tiling of the pixmap so that the top-left corner of the pixmap tiles to 
the top-left corner of the rectangle (and then tiles throughout the 
rectangle). Currently, the alignment is set so that the pixmap's top-left 
corner is aligned to the top-left corner of the widget (not the 
rectangle). Any hints on how to do this? I was thinking about translating 
the painter, but I think this would make my rectangle draw at a a 
different location.

   QBrush brush(pixmap);
   painter.setBrush(brush);
   painter.setPen(Qt::NoPen);
   painter.drawRect(rect);

Thanks!

Josh
