a rectangle or line that can indicate a selection or a boundary.</p> <p>A rubber band is often used to show a new bounding area (as in a <a href="qsplitter.html">QSplitter</a> or a <a href="qdockwidget.html">QDockWidget</a> that is undocking). Historically this has been implemented using a <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a> and XOR, but this approach doesn't always work properly since rendering can happen in the window below the rubber band, but before the rubber band has been "erased".</p> <p>You can create a QRubberBand whenever you need to render a rubber band around a given area (or to represent a single line), then call <a href="qrubberband.html#setGeometry">setGeometry</a>(), <a href="qrubberband.html#move">move</a>() or <a href="qrubberband.html#resize">resize</a>() to position and size it. A common pattern is to do this in conjunction with mouse events. For example:</p> <pre> void Widget::mousePressEvent(QMouseEvent *event) { origin = event->pos(); if (!rubberBand) rubberBand = new QRubberBand(QRubberBand::Rectangle, this); rubberBand->setGeometry(QRect(origin, QSize())); rubberBand->show(); } void Widget::mouseMoveEvent(QMouseEvent *event) { rubberBand->setGeometry(QRect(origin, event->pos()).normalized()); } void Widget::mouseReleaseEvent(QMouseEvent *event) { rubberBand->hide(); <span class="comment">// determine selection, for example using QRect::intersects()</span> <span class="comment">// and QRect::contains().</span> }</pre> <p>If you pass a parent to QRubberBand's constructor, the rubber band will display only inside its parent, but stays on top of other child widgets. If no parent is passed, QRubberBand will act as a top-level widget.</p> <p>Call <a href="qwidget.html#show">show</a>() to make the rubber band visible; also when the rubber band is not a top-level. Hiding or destroying the widget will make the rubber band disappear. The rubber band can be a <a href="qrubberband.html#Shape-enum">Rectangle</a> or a <a href="qrubberband.html#Shape-enum">Line</a> (vertical or horizontal), depending on the <a href="qrubberband.html#shape">shape</a>() it was given when constructed.</p> <hr /> <h2>Member Type Documentation</h2> <h3 class="fn"><a name="Shape-enum"></a>enum QRubberBand::Shape</h3> <p>This enum specifies what shape a <a href="qrubberband.html">QRubberBand</a> should have.
