Here we +set it to NoPen, meaning that there will be no special edge when we +draw something; the blue brush will go all the way to the edges of +the things we draw. +<p> <pre> <a name="x2345"></a> p.<a href="qpainter.html#translate">translate</a>( 0, rect().bottom() ); +</pre> +<p> The <a href="qpainter.html#translate">TQPainter::translate</a>() function translates the coordinate +system of the TQPainter; i.e., it moves it by an offset. Here we set +the (0, 0) point to the bottom-left corner of the widget. The x and +y directions remain unchanged, i.e., all the y coordinates inside the +widget are now negative (see <a href="coordsys.html">The Coordinate +System</a> for more information about TQt's coordinate system). +<p> <pre> <a name="x2340"></a> p.<a href="qpainter.html#drawPie">drawPie</a>( TQRect(-35, -35, 70, 70), 0, 90*16 ); +</pre> +<p> The drawPie() function draws a pie shape inside the specified +rectangle using a start angle and an arc length. The angles are +specified in 1/16th of a degree. Zero degrees is at the 3 o'clock +position. The drawing direction is counter-clockwise. Here we draw a +quarter of a circle in the bottom-left corner of the widget. The pie +is filled with blue and has no outline. +<p> <pre> <a name="x2342"></a> p.<a href="qpainter.html#rotate">rotate</a>( -ang ); +</pre> +<p> The <a href="qpainter.html#rotate">TQPainter::rotate</a>() function rotates the coordinate system of the +<a href="qpainter.html">TQPainter</a> around the origin. The rotation argument is a <tt>float</tt> given +in degrees (not given in 1/16th of a degree as above) and clockwise. +Here we rotate the coordinate system <tt>ang</tt> degrees counter-clockwise. +<p> <pre> <a name="x2341"></a> p.<a href="qpainter.html#drawRect">drawRect</a>( TQRect(33, -4, 15, 8) ); +</pre> +<p> The <a href="qpainter.html#drawRect">TQPainter::drawRect</a>() function draws the specified rectangle. Here +we draw the barrel of the cannon. +<p> It can often be difficult to envision the resulting drawing when the +coordinate system has been transformed (translated, rotated, scaled, or +sheared) as above. +<p> In this case the coordinate system is first translated and then rotated. +If the rectangle <a href="qrect.html">TQRect</a>(33, -4, 15, 8) had been drawn in the translated +coordinate system, it would have looked like this: +<p> <center><img src="t9_1.png" alt="The cannon translated but not rotated"></center> +<p> Note that the rectangle is clipped by the border of the CannonField +widget. When we rotate the coordinate system, for instance 60 +degrees, the rectangle will be rotated around (0, 0), which is the +bottom-left corner because we have translated the coordinate system. +The result looks like this: +<p> <center><img src="t9_2.png" alt="The cannon translated and rotated"></center> +<p> We're done, except that we haven't explained why Windows didn't dither +this time. +<p> + +<pre> int main( int argc, char **argv ) + { + <a name="x2347"></a> TQApplication::<a href="qapplication.html#setColorSpec">setColorSpec</a>( TQApplication::CustomColor ); + <a href="qapplication.html">TQApplication</a> a( argc, argv ); +</pre> +<p> We tell TQt that we want a different color-allocation strategy for this +program. There is no single correct color-allocation strategy. Because +this program uses an unusual yellow but not many colors, <tt>CustomColor</tt> is best. There are several other allocation strategies; you can read about them in the <a href="qapplication.html#setColorSpec">TQApplication::setColorSpec</a>() +documentation. +<p> Mostly you can ignore this, since the default is good. Occasionally +some applications with unusual color use look bad; changing the +allocation strategy often helps then. +<p> <h2> Behavior +</h2> +<a name="2"></a><p> When the slider is operated the angle of the drawn cannon changes +accordingly. +<p> The Q on the Quit button is now underlined, and Alt+Q does what you +think it does. If you do not know why, you didn't do the exercises in +Chapter 8. +<p> You may notice that the cannon flickers annoyingly, especially on a +slow machine. We'll fix this in the next chapter. +<p> (See <a href="tutorial1-07.html#compiling">Compiling</a> for how to create a +makefile and build the application.) +<p> <h2> Exercises +</h2> +<a name="3"></a><p> Set a different pen instead of NoPen.
