[Qt-interest] QPainter::drawText - text outline vs text fill?

[Schimkowitsch Robert]

When reading through the docs of the QGraphicsSimpleTextItem, I noticed
the following sentence:

"The simple text item can have both a fill and an outline; setBrush()
will set the text fill (i.e., text color), and setPen() sets the pen
that will be used to draw the text outline."
(I remembered our trainer mentioned that in a QGraphicsView training
course, too).

Since I'll be mostly using QPainter::drawText directly, I was wondering
how QPainter::drawText would behave in that respect. The online
documentation says:

(http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qpainter.html)
"The pen defines how to draw lines and outlines, and it also defines the
text color. "

Outline or fill? Or does QPainter not distinguish between those two?
