I am hoping this can be addressed before 4.6 is released. When drawing text, you can create a painter path, or just use a painter. Ideally it shouldn't matter. But QPainterPath does not lay out text like QPainter does. There is no bounding rect you can specify for the path to provide wrapping. This also makes it impossible to outline wrapped text.
QPainterPath::addText() should take rect and text flags as QPainter::drawText() does. This way I can layout my text ahead of time, and even outline it. I've been working with this problem and now I've come full circle. Also, I've noted that the QPainter produces less reliable results when scaling is animated than when a path is used (pixels flicker) Please Please Please provide QPainterPath::addText() with wrapping support! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
