QGraphicscene strange behavior (don't update screen with negative numbers)

Question

I have a QGraphicscene that don't update screen with negative numbers.The image explain all.

http://s16.postimage.org/4b59m8hx1/problem.jpg

That's the simple code.

if (dinA){ //assume its always true
      int sx=dinA->getX();
      int sy=dinA->getY();
      dis->scene.addRect(QRectF(300,100-sy, sx, sy),QPen(), QBrush(Qt::FDiagPattern));
 }

 //** 300,100-sy ** because of my work-area is 600*300

What could be the cause?

If I interpret your screenshot and the text below it correctly, you are using a negative number for the height. However, this creates an invalid QRectF. Citing from the Qt documentation:

bool QRectF::isValid() const
[...]
A valid rectangle has a width() > 0 and height() > 0.

In the your code, you should make sure that the size and the width are positive. Otherwise, you have to swap the x- and/or y-coordinate of the corner points.

Hope that helps!

Thank you,tomorrow I'll try and let u know ;) – Tcz Sep 08 '12 at 02:18 — Tcz, Sep 08 '12 at 02:18
