    public class QGraphicsScene

extends QObject

The QGraphicsScene class provides a surface for managing a large number of 2D graphical items. The class serves as a container for QGraphicsItems. It is used together with `QGraphicsView` for visualizing graphical items, such as lines, rectangles, text, or even custom items, on a 2D surface. QGraphicsScene is part of The Graphics View Framework.

QGraphicsScene also provides functionality that lets you efficiently determine both the location of items, and for determining what items are visible within an arbitrary area on the scene. With the `QGraphicsView` widget, you can either visualize the whole scene, or zoom in and view only parts of the scene.

Example:

            QGraphicsScene scene = new QGraphicsScene();
            scene.addText("Hello, world!");

            QGraphicsView view = new QGraphicsView(scene);
            view.show();

Note that QGraphicsScene has no visual appearance of its own; it only manages the items. You need to create a `QGraphicsView` widget to visualize the scene.

To add items to a scene, you start off by constructing a QGraphicsScene object. Then, you have two options: either add your existing `QGraphicsItem` objects by calling `addItem()`, or you can call one of the convenience functions `addEllipse()`, `addLine()`, `addPath()`, `addPixmap()`, `addPolygon()`, `addRect()`, or `addText()`, which all return a pointer to the newly added item. The dimensions of the items added with these functions are relative to the item's coordinate system, and the items position is initialized to (0, 0) in the scene.

You can then visualize the scene using `QGraphicsView`. When the scene changes, (e.g., when an item moves or is transformed) QGraphicsScene emits the `changed()` signal. To remove an item, call `removeItem()`.

QGraphicsScene uses an indexing algorithm to manage the location of items efficiently. By default, a BSP (Binary Space Partitioning) tree is used; an algorithm suitable for large scenes where most items remain static (i.e., do not move around). You can choose to disable this index by calling `setItemIndexMethod()`. For more information about the available indexing algorithms, see the `itemIndexMethod` property.

The scene's bounding rect is set by calling `setSceneRect()`. Items can be placed at any position on the scene, and the size of the scene is by default unlimited. The scene rect is used only for internal bookkeeping, maintaining the scene's item index. If the scene rect is unset, QGraphicsScene will use the bounding area of all items, as returned by `itemsBoundingRect()`, as the scene rect. However, `itemsBoundingRect()` is a relatively time consuming function, as it operates by collecting positional information for every item on the scene. Because of this, you should always set the scene rect when operating on large scenes.

One of QGraphicsScene's greatest strengths is its ability to efficiently determine the location of items. Even with millions of items on the scene, the `items()` functions can determine the location of an item within few milliseconds. There are several overloads to `items()`: one that finds items at a certain position, one that finds items inside or intersecting with a polygon or a rectangle, and more. The list of returned items is sorted by stacking order, with the topmost item being the first item in the list. For convenience, there is also an `itemAt()` function that returns the topmost item at a given position.

QGraphicsScene maintains selection information for the scene. To select items, call `setSelectionArea()`, and to clear the current selection, call `clearSelection()`. Call `selectedItems()` to get the list of all selected items.

## Event Handling and Propagation

Another responsibility that QGraphicsScene has, is to propagate events from `QGraphicsView`. To send an event to a scene, you construct an event that inherits `QEvent`, and then send it using, for example, `QApplication::sendEvent()`. event() is responsible for dispatching the event to the individual items. Some common events are handled by convenience event handlers. For example, key press events are handled by `keyPressEvent()`, and mouse press events are handled by `mousePressEvent()`.

Key events are delivered to the focus item. To set the focus item, you can either call `setFocusItem()`, passing an item that accepts focus, or the item itself can call `QGraphicsItem::setFocus()`. Call `focusItem()` to get the current focus item. For compatibility with widgets, the scene also maintains its own focus information. By default, the scene does not have focus, and all key events are discarded. If `setFocus()` is called, or if an item on the scene gains focus, the scene automatically gains focus. If the scene has focus, `hasFocus()` will return true, and key events will be forwarded to the focus item, if any. If the scene loses focus, (i.e., someone calls `clearFocus()`,) while an item has focus, the scene will maintain its item focus information, and once the scene regains focus, it will make sure the last focus item regains focus.

For mouse-over effects, QGraphicsScene dispatches hover events. If an item accepts hover events (see `QGraphicsItem::acceptHoverEvents()`), it will receive a `GraphicsSceneHoverEnter` event when the mouse enters its area. As the mouse continues moving inside the item's area, QGraphicsScene will send it `GraphicsSceneHoverMove` events. When the mouse leaves the item's area, the item will receive a `GraphicsSceneHoverLeave` event.

All mouse events are delivered to the current mouse grabber item. An item becomes the scene's mouse grabber if it accepts mouse events (see `QGraphicsItem::acceptedMouseButtons()`) and it receives a mouse press. It stays the mouse grabber until it receives a mouse release when no other mouse buttons are pressed. You can call `mouseGrabberItem()` to determine what item is currently grabbing the mouse.

Field Detail

### changed

    public final QSignalEmitter.Signal1 changed

  This signal takes 1 generic argument(s). We list their type and the name they go by in the description of this signal. <java.util.List(named: region)>:

  This signal is emitted by QGraphicsScene when control reaches the event loop, if the scene content changes. The `region` parameter contains a list of scene rectangles that indicate the area that has been changed.

See also:
  `QGraphicsView::updateScene()`.

### sceneRectChanged

    public final QSignalEmitter.Signal1 sceneRectChanged

  This signal takes 1 generic argument(s). We list their type and the name they go by in the description of this signal. <com.trolltech.qt.core.QRectF(named: rect)>:

  This signal is emitted by QGraphicsScene whenever the scene rect changes. The `rect` parameter is the new scene rectangle.

See also:
  `QGraphicsView::updateSceneRect()`.

### selectionChanged

    public final QSignalEmitter.Signal0 selectionChanged

  This signal is emitted by QGraphicsScene whenever the selection changes. You can call `selectedItems()` to get the new list of selected items.

  The selection changes whenever an item is selected or unselected, a selection area is set, cleared or otherwise changed, if a preselected item is added to the scene, or if a selected item is removed from the scene.

  QGraphicsScene emits this signal only once for group selection operations. For example, if you set a selection area, select or unselect a `QGraphicsItemGroup`, or if you add or remove from the scene a parent item that contains several selected items, `selectionChanged()` is emitted only once after the operation has completed (instead of once for each item).

See also:
  `setSelectionArea()`, `selectedItems()`, and `QGraphicsItem::setSelected()`.

### addItem

    public final void addItem(QGraphicsItemInterface item)

  Adds or moves the item `item` and all its childen to the scene.

  If the item is visible (i.e., `QGraphicsItem::isVisible()` returns true), QGraphicsScene will emit `changed()` once control goes back to the event loop.

  If the item is already in a different scene, it will first be removed from its old scene, and then added to this scene as a top-level.

  QGraphicsScene will send ItemSceneChange notifications to `item` while it is added to the scene. If item does not currently belong to a scene, only one notification is sent. If it does belong to scene already (i.e., it is moved to this scene), QGraphicsScene will send an addition notification as the item is removed from its previous scene.

### addWidget

    public final QGraphicsProxyWidget addWidget(QWidget widget,
                                                Qt.WindowType[] wFlags)

### addWidget

    public final QGraphicsProxyWidget addWidget(QWidget widget)

  Creates a new `QGraphicsProxyWidget` for `widget`, adds it to the scene, and returns a pointer to the proxy. `wFlags` set the default window flags for the embedding proxy widget.

  The item's position is initialized to (0, 0).

  If the item is visible (i.e., `QGraphicsItem::isVisible()` returns true), QGraphicsScene will emit `changed()` once control goes back to the event loop.

  `addEllipse()`, `addLine()`, `addPixmap()`, `addPixmap()`, `addRect()`, `addText()`, `addSimpleText()`, and `addItem()`.

### addWidget

    public final QGraphicsProxyWidget addWidget(QWidget widget,
                                                Qt.WindowFlags wFlags)

  Creates a new `QGraphicsProxyWidget` for `widget`, adds it to the scene, and returns a pointer to the proxy. `wFlags` set the default window flags for the embedding proxy widget.

  The item's position is initialized to (0, 0).

  If the item is visible (i.e., `QGraphicsItem::isVisible()` returns true), QGraphicsScene will emit `changed()` once control goes back to the event loop.

  `addEllipse()`, `addLine()`, `addPixmap()`, `addPixmap()`, `addRect()`, `addText()`, `addSimpleText()`, and `addItem()`.

### advance

    public final void advance()

  This slot advances the scene by one step, by calling `QGraphicsItem::advance()` for all items on the scene. This is done in two phases: in the first phase, all items are notified that the scene is about to change, and in the second phase all items are notified that they can move. In the first phase, `QGraphicsItem::advance()` is called passing a value of 0 as an argument, and 1 is passed in the second phase.

See also:
  `QGraphicsItem::advance()`, `QGraphicsItemAnimation`, and `QTimeLine`.

### backgroundBrush

    public final QBrush backgroundBrush()

  This property holds the background brush of the scene. Set this property to changes the scene's background to a different color, gradient or texture. The default background brush is `Qt::NoBrush` . The background is drawn before (behind) the items.

  Example:

              QGraphicsScene scene = new QGraphicsScene();
              QGraphicsView view = new QGraphicsView(scene);
              view.show();

              // a blue background
              scene.setBackgroundBrush(new QBrush(QColor.blue));

              // a gradient background
              QRadialGradient gradient = new QRadialGradient(0, 0, 10);
              gradient.setSpread(QGradient.Spread.RepeatSpread);
              scene.setBackgroundBrush(new QBrush(gradient));

  `QGraphicsScene::render()` calls `drawBackground()` to draw the scene background. For more detailed control over how the background is drawn, you can reimplement `drawBackground()` in a subclass of QGraphicsScene.

### bspTreeDepth

    public final int bspTreeDepth()

  This property holds the depth of QGraphicsScene's BSP index tree. This property has no effect when `NoIndex` is used.

  This value determines the depth of QGraphicsScene's BSP tree. The depth directly affects QGraphicsScene's performance and memory usage; the latter growing exponentially with the depth of the tree. With an optimal tree depth, QGraphicsScene can instantly determine the locality of items, even for scenes with thousands or millions of items. This also greatly improves rendering performance.

  By default, the value is 0, in which case Qt will guess a reasonable default depth based on the size, location and number of items in the scene. If these parameters change frequently, however, you may experience slowdowns as QGraphicsScene retunes the depth internally. You can avoid potential slowdowns by fixating the tree depth through setting this property.

  The depth of the tree and the size of the scene rectangle decide the granularity of the scene's partitioning. The size of each scene segment is determined by the following algorithm:

              QSizeF segmentSize = sceneRect().size().divide(java.lang.Math.pow(2, depth - 1));

  The BSP tree has an optimal size when each segment contains between 0 and 10 items.

See also:
  `itemIndexMethod`.

### clear

    public final void clear()

  Removes and deletes all items from the scene, but otherwise leaves the state of the scene unchanged.

See also:
  `addItem()`.

### clearFocus

    public final void clearFocus()

  Clears focus from the scene. If any item has focus when this function is called, it will lose focus, and regain focus again once the scene regains focus.

  A scene that does not have focus ignores key events.

See also:
  `hasFocus()`, `setFocus()`, and `setFocusItem()`.

### clearSelection

    public final void clearSelection()

  Clears the current selection.

See also:
  `setSelectionArea()`, and `selectedItems()`.

### collidingItems

    public final java.util.List collidingItems(QGraphicsItemInterface item)

  Returns a list of all items that collide with `item`. Collisions are determined by calling QGraphicsItem.collidesWithItem(); the collision detection is determined by \a mode. By default, all items whose shape intersects \a item or is contained inside \a item's shape are returned.

  The items are returned in descending Z order (i.e., the first item in the list is the top-most item, and the last item is the bottom-most item).

### collidingItems

    public final java.util.List collidingItems(QGraphicsItemInterface item,
                                               Qt.ItemSelectionMode mode)

  Returns a list of all items that collide with `item`. Collisions are determined by calling `QGraphicsItem::collidesWithItem()`; the collision detection is determined by `mode`. By default, all items whose shape intersects `item` or is contained inside `item`'s shape are returned.

  The items are returned in descending Z order (i.e., the first item in the list is the top-most item, and the last item is the bottom-most item).

See also:
  `items()`, `itemAt()`, and `QGraphicsItem::collidesWithItem()`.

### createItemGroup

    public final QGraphicsItemGroup createItemGroup(java.util.List items)

  Groups all items in `items` into a new `QGraphicsItemGroup`, and returns a pointer to the group. The group is created with the common ancestor of `items` as its parent, and with position (0, 0). The items are all reparented to the group, and their positions and transformations are mapped to the group. If `items` is empty, this function will return an empty top-level `QGraphicsItemGroup`.

  QGraphicsScene has ownership of the group item; you do not need to delete it. To dismantle (ungroup) a group, call `destroyItemGroup()`.

See also:
  `destroyItemGroup()`, and `QGraphicsItemGroup::addToGroup()`.

### destroyItemGroup

    public final void destroyItemGroup(QGraphicsItemGroup group)

  Reparents all items in `group` to `group`'s parent item, then removes `group` from the scene, and finally deletes it. The items' positions and transformations are mapped from the group to the group's parent.

See also:
  `createItemGroup()`, and `QGraphicsItemGroup::removeFromGroup()`.

### focusItem

    public final QGraphicsItemInterface focusItem()

  Returns the scene's current focus item, or 0 if no item currently has focus.

  The focus item receives keyboard input when the scene receives a key event.

See also:
  `setFocusItem()`, and `QGraphicsItem::hasFocus()`.

### focusNextPrevChild

    protected final boolean focusNextPrevChild(boolean next)

  Finds a new widget to give the keyboard focus to, as appropriate for Tab and Shift+Tab, and returns true if it can find a new widget, or false if it cannot. If `next` is true, this function searches forward; if `next` is false, it searches backward.

  You can reimplement this function in a subclass of QGraphicsScene to provide fine-grained control over how tab focus passes inside your scene. The default implementation is based on the tab focus chain defined by `QGraphicsWidget::setTabOrder()`.

### font

    public final QFont font()

  This property holds the scene's default font. This property provides the scene's font. The scene font defaults to, and resolves all its entries from, QApplication::font.

  If the scene's font changes, either directly through `setFont()` or indirectly when the application font changes, QGraphicsScene first sends itself a `FontChange` event, and it then sends `FontChange` events to all top-level widget items in the scene. These items respond by resolving their own fonts to the scene, and they then notify their children, who again notify their children, and so on, until all widget items have updated their fonts.

  Changing the scene font, (directly or indirectly through `QApplication::setFont()`,) automatically schedules a redraw the entire scene.

See also:
  `QWidget::font`, `QApplication::setFont()`, `palette`, and `style()`.

### foregroundBrush

    public final QBrush foregroundBrush()

  This property holds the foreground brush of the scene. Change this property to set the scene's foreground to a different color, gradient or texture.

  The foreground is drawn after (on top of) the items. The default foreground brush is `Qt::NoBrush` ( i.e. the foreground is not drawn).

  Example:

              QGraphicsScene scene = new QGraphicsScene();
              QGraphicsView view = new QGraphicsView(scene);
              view.show();

              // a white semi-transparent foreground
              scene.setForegroundBrush(new QBrush(new QColor(255, 255, 255, 127)));

              // a grid foreground
              scene.setForegroundBrush(new QBrush(QColor.lightGray, Qt.BrushStyle.CrossPattern));

  `QGraphicsScene::render()` calls `drawForeground()` to draw the scene foreground. For more detailed control over how the foreground is drawn, you can reimplement the `drawForeground()` function in a QGraphicsScene subclass.

### hasFocus

    public final boolean hasFocus()

  Returns true if the scene has focus; otherwise returns false. If the scene has focus, it will will forward key events from `QKeyEvent` to any item that has focus.

See also:
  `setFocus()`, and `setFocusItem()`.

### height

    public final double height()

  This convenience function is equivalent to calling `sceneRect(). eight()`.

See also:
  `width()`.

### invalidate

    public final void invalidate(QRectF rect,
                                 QGraphicsScene.SceneLayer[] layers)

### invalidate

    public final void invalidate(QRectF rect)

  Invalidates and schedules a redraw of the `layers` in `rect` on the scene. Any cached content in `layers` is unconditionally invalidated and redrawn.

  You can use this function overload to notify QGraphicsScene of changes to the background or the foreground of the scene. This function is commonly used for scenes with tile-based backgrounds to notify changes when `QGraphicsView` has enabled `CacheBackground` .

  Example:

          class TileScene extends QGraphicsScene {

          private final int tileWidth = 10;
          private final int tileHeight = 10;
          private final int numTilesH = 10;
          private final int numTilesV = 10;
          private QPixmap[][] tiles;

          TileScene() {
              tiles = new QPixmap[numTilesH][numTilesV];
          }

            public QRectF rectForTile(int x, int y)
            {
                // Return the rectangle for the tile at position (x, y).
                return new QRectF(x * tileWidth,y * tileHeight,tileWidth,tileHeight);
            }

            public void setTile(int x, int y, QPixmap pixmap)
            {
                // Sets or replaces the tile at position (x, y) with pixmap.
                if (x >= 0 && x < numTilesH && y >= 0 && y < numTilesV) {
                    tiles[y][x] = pixmap;
                    invalidate(rectForTile(x, y), QGraphicsScene.SceneLayer.BackgroundLayer);
                }
            }

            protected void drawBackground(QPainter painter, QRectF exposed)
            {
                // Draws all tiles that intersect the exposed area.
                for (int y = 0; y < numTilesV; ++y) {
                    for (int x = 0; x < numTilesH; ++x) {
                        QRectF rect = rectForTile(x, y);
                        if (exposed.intersects(rect))
                            painter.drawPixmap(rect.topLeft(), tiles[y][x]);
                    }
                }
            }

          }

  Note that `QGraphicsView` currently supports background caching only (see `QGraphicsView::CacheBackground` ). This function is equivalent to calling `update()` if any layer but `BackgroundLayer` is passed.

See also:
  `QGraphicsView::resetCachedContent()`.

### invalidate

    public final void invalidate()

  Invalidates and schedules a redraw of the `layers` in `rect` on the scene. Any cached content in `layers` is unconditionally invalidated and redrawn.

  You can use this function overload to notify QGraphicsScene of changes to the background or the foreground of the scene. This function is commonly used for scenes with tile-based backgrounds to notify changes when `QGraphicsView` has enabled `CacheBackground` .

  Example:

          class TileScene extends QGraphicsScene {

          private final int tileWidth = 10;
          private final int tileHeight = 10;
          private final int numTilesH = 10;
          private final int numTilesV = 10;
          private QPixmap[][] tiles;

          TileScene() {
              tiles = new QPixmap[numTilesH][numTilesV];
          }

            public QRectF rectForTile(int x, int y)
            {
                // Return the rectangle for the tile at position (x, y).
                return new QRectF(x * tileWidth,y * tileHeight,tileWidth,tileHeight);
            }

            public void setTile(int x, int y, QPixmap pixmap)
            {
                // Sets or replaces the tile at position (x, y) with pixmap.
                if (x >= 0 && x < numTilesH && y >= 0 && y < numTilesV) {
                    tiles[y][x] = pixmap;
                    invalidate(rectForTile(x, y), QGraphicsScene.SceneLayer.BackgroundLayer);
                }
            }

            protected void drawBackground(QPainter painter, QRectF exposed)
            {
                // Draws all tiles that intersect the exposed area.
                for (int y = 0; y < numTilesV; ++y) {
                    for (int x = 0; x < numTilesH; ++x) {
                        QRectF rect = rectForTile(x, y);
                        if (exposed.intersects(rect))
                            painter.drawPixmap(rect.topLeft(), tiles[y][x]);
                    }
                }
            }

          }

  Note that `QGraphicsView` currently supports background caching only (see `QGraphicsView::CacheBackground` ). This function is equivalent to calling `update()` if any layer but `BackgroundLayer` is passed.

See also:
  `QGraphicsView::resetCachedContent()`.

### invalidate

    public final void invalidate(QRectF rect,
                                 QGraphicsScene.SceneLayers layers)

  Invalidates and schedules a redraw of the `layers` in `rect` on the scene. Any cached content in `layers` is unconditionally invalidated and redrawn.

  You can use this function overload to notify QGraphicsScene of changes to the background or the foreground of the scene. This function is commonly used for scenes with tile-based backgrounds to notify changes when `QGraphicsView` has enabled `CacheBackground` .

  Example:

          class TileScene extends QGraphicsScene {

          private final int tileWidth = 10;
          private final int tileHeight = 10;
          private final int numTilesH = 10;
          private final int numTilesV = 10;
          private QPixmap[][] tiles;

          TileScene() {
              tiles = new QPixmap[numTilesH][numTilesV];
          }

            public QRectF rectForTile(int x, int y)
            {
                // Return the rectangle for the tile at position (x, y).
                return new QRectF(x * tileWidth,y * tileHeight,tileWidth,tileHeight);
            }

            public void setTile(int x, int y, QPixmap pixmap)
            {
                // Sets or replaces the tile at position (x, y) with pixmap.
                if (x >= 0 && x < numTilesH && y >= 0 && y < numTilesV) {
                    tiles[y][x] = pixmap;
                    invalidate(rectForTile(x, y), QGraphicsScene.SceneLayer.BackgroundLayer);
                }
            }

            protected void drawBackground(QPainter painter, QRectF exposed)
            {
                // Draws all tiles that intersect the exposed area.
                for (int y = 0; y < numTilesV; ++y) {
                    for (int x = 0; x < numTilesH; ++x) {
                        QRectF rect = rectForTile(x, y);
                        if (exposed.intersects(rect))
                            painter.drawPixmap(rect.topLeft(), tiles[y][x]);
                    }
                }
            }

          }

  Note that `QGraphicsView` currently supports background caching only (see `QGraphicsView::CacheBackground` ). This function is equivalent to calling `update()` if any layer but `BackgroundLayer` is passed.

  `QGraphicsView::resetCachedContent()`.

### invalidate

    public final void invalidate(double x,
                                 double y,
                                 double w,
                                 double h,
                                 QGraphicsScene.SceneLayer[] layers)

### invalidate

    public final void invalidate(double x,
                                 double y,
                                 double w,
                                 double h)

  This convenience function is equivalent to calling invalidate(`QRectF`(`x`, `y`, `w`, `h`), `layers`);

### invalidate

    public final void invalidate(double x,
                                 double y,
                                 double w,
                                 double h,
                                 QGraphicsScene.SceneLayers layers)

  This convenience function is equivalent to calling invalidate(`QRectF`(`x`, `y`, `w`, `h`), `layers`);

### itemAt

    public final QGraphicsItemInterface itemAt(QPointF pos)

  Returns the topmost visible item at the specified `position`, or 0 if there are no items at this position.

  Note: The topmost item is the one with the highest Z-value.

See also:
  `items()`, `collidingItems()`, and `QGraphicsItem::setZValue()`.

### itemAt

    public final QGraphicsItemInterface itemAt(double x,
                                               double y)

  Returns the topmost item at the position specified by (`x`, `y`), or 0 if there are no items at this position.

  This convenience function is equivalent to calling `itemAt(QPointF(x, y))`.

  Note: The topmost item is the one with the highest Z-value.

### itemIndexMethod

    public final QGraphicsScene.ItemIndexMethod itemIndexMethod()

  This property holds the item indexing method. QGraphicsScene applies an indexing algorithm to the scene, to speed up item discovery functions like `items()` and `itemAt()`. Indexing is most efficient for static scenes (i.e., where items don't move around). For dynamic scenes, or scenes with many animated items, the index bookkeeping can outweight the fast lookup speeds.

  For the common case, the default index method `BspTreeIndex` works fine. If your scene uses many animations and you are experiencing slowness, you can disable indexing by calling `setItemIndexMethod(NoIndex)`.

See also:
  `bspTreeDepth`.

### items

    public final java.util.List items()

  Returns a list of all items on the scene, in no particular order.

See also:
  `addItem()`, and `removeItem()`.

### items

    public final java.util.List items(QPainterPath path)

                                      Qt.ItemSelectionMode mode)

  Returns all visible items that, depending on `path`, are either inside or intersect with the path `path`.

  The default value for `mode` is `Qt::IntersectsItemShape` ; all items whose exact shape intersects with or is contained by `path` are returned.

See also:
  `itemAt()`.

### items

    public final java.util.List items(QPointF pos)

  Returns all visible items at position `pos` in the scene. The items are listed in descending Z order (i.e., the first item in the list is the top-most item, and the last item is the bottom-most item).

See also:
  `itemAt()`.

### items

    public final java.util.List items(QPolygonF polygon)

  Returns all visible items that are either inside or intersect with the polygon `polygon`.

### items

                                      Qt.ItemSelectionMode mode)

  Returns all visible items that, depending on `mode`, are either inside or intersect with the polygon `polygon`.

  The default value for `mode` is `Qt::IntersectsItemShape` ; all items whose exact shape intersects with or is contained by `polygon` are returned.

                                      double w,
                                      double h)

  This convenience function is equivalent to calling items(QRectF(`x`, `y`, `w`, `h`).

### items

    public final java.util.List items(double x,
                                      double y,
                                      double w,
                                      double h,
                                      Qt.ItemSelectionMode mode)

  This convenience function is equivalent to calling items(`QRectF`(`x`, `y`, `w`, `h`), `mode`).

### itemsBoundingRect

    public final QRectF itemsBoundingRect()

  Calculates and returns the bounding rect of all items on the scene. This function works by iterating over all items, and because if this, it can be slow for large scenes.

See also:
  `sceneRect()`.

### mouseGrabberItem

    public final QGraphicsItemInterface mouseGrabberItem()

  Returns the current mouse grabber item, or 0 if no item is currently grabbing the mouse. The mouse grabber item is the item that receives all mouse events sent to the scene.

  An item becomes a mouse grabber when it receives and accepts a mouse press event, and it stays the mouse grabber until either of the following events occur:

  - If the item receives a mouse release event when there are no other buttons pressed, it loses the mouse grab.
  - If the item becomes invisible (i.e., someone calls `item->setVisible(false))`, or if it becomes disabled (i.e., someone calls `item->setEnabled(false))`, it loses the mouse grab.
  - If the item is removed from the scene, it loses the mouse grab.
  If the item loses its mouse grab, the scene will ignore all mouse events until a new item grabs the mouse (i.e., until a new item receives a mouse press event).

### palette

    public final QPalette palette()

  This property holds the scene's default palette. This property provides the scene's palette. The scene palette defaults to, and resolves all its entries from, QApplication::palette.

  If the scene's palette changes, either directly through `setPalette()` or indirectly when the application palette changes, QGraphicsScene first sends itself a `PaletteChange` event, and it then sends `PaletteChange` events to all top-level widget items in the scene. These items respond by resolving their own palettes to the scene, and they then notify their children, who again notify their children, and so on, until all widget items have updated their palettes.

  Changing the scene palette, (directly or indirectly through `QApplication::setPalette()`,) automatically schedules a redraw the entire scene.

See also:
  `QWidget::palette`, `QApplication::setPalette()`, `font`, and `style()`.

### removeItem

    public final void removeItem(QGraphicsItemInterface item)

  Removes the item `item` and all its children from the scene. The ownership of `item` is passed on to the caller (i.e., QGraphicsScene will no longer delete `item` when destroyed).

See also:
  `addItem()`.

### render

    public final void render(QPainter painter,
                             QRectF target,
                             QRectF source)

  Renders the `source` rect from scene into `target`, using `painter`. This function is useful for capturing the contents of the scene onto a paint device, such as a `QImage` (e.g., to take a screenshot), or for printing with `QPrinter`. For example:

              QGraphicsScene scene = new QGraphicsScene();
              scene.addRect(0d,0d,50d,50d);
              QPrinter printer = new QPrinter(QPrinter.PrinterMode.HighResolution);
              printer.setPageSize(QPrinter.PageSize.A4);

              QPainter painter = new QPainter(printer);
              scene.render(painter);

  If `source` is a null rect, this function will use `sceneRect()` to determine what to render. If `target` is a null rect, the dimensions of `painter`'s paint device will be used.

  The source rect contents will be transformed according to `aspectRatioMode` to fit into the target rect. By default, the aspect ratio is kept, and `source` is scaled to fit in `target`.

See also:
  `QGraphicsView::render()`.

### render

    public final void render(QPainter painter,
                             QRectF target)

  Renders the `source` rect from scene into `target`, using `painter`. This function is useful for capturing the contents of the scene onto a paint device, such as a `QImage` (e.g., to take a screenshot), or for printing with `QPrinter`. For example:

              QGraphicsScene scene = new QGraphicsScene();
              scene.addRect(0d,0d,50d,50d);
              QPrinter printer = new QPrinter(QPrinter.PrinterMode.HighResolution);
              printer.setPageSize(QPrinter.PageSize.A4);

              QPainter painter = new QPainter(printer);
              scene.render(painter);

  If `source` is a null rect, this function will use `sceneRect()` to determine what to render. If `target` is a null rect, the dimensions of `painter`'s paint device will be used.

  The source rect contents will be transformed according to `aspectRatioMode` to fit into the target rect. By default, the aspect ratio is kept, and `source` is scaled to fit in `target`.

See also:
  `QGraphicsView::render()`.

### render

    public final void render(QPainter painter)

  Renders the `source` rect from scene into `target`, using `painter`. This function is useful for capturing the contents of the scene onto a paint device, such as a `QImage` (e.g., to take a screenshot), or for printing with `QPrinter`. For example:

              QGraphicsScene scene = new QGraphicsScene();
              scene.addRect(0d,0d,50d,50d);
              QPrinter printer = new QPrinter(QPrinter.PrinterMode.HighResolution);
              printer.setPageSize(QPrinter.PageSize.A4);

              QPainter painter = new QPainter(printer);
              scene.render(painter);

  If `source` is a null rect, this function will use `sceneRect()` to determine what to render. If `target` is a null rect, the dimensions of `painter`'s paint device will be used.

  The source rect contents will be transformed according to `aspectRatioMode` to fit into the target rect. By default, the aspect ratio is kept, and `source` is scaled to fit in `target`.

  `QGraphicsView::render()`.

### render

    public final void render(QPainter painter,
                             QRectF target,
                             QRectF source,
                             Qt.AspectRatioMode aspectRatioMode)

  Renders the `source` rect from scene into `target`, using `painter`. This function is useful for capturing the contents of the scene onto a paint device, such as a `QImage` (e.g., to take a screenshot), or for printing with `QPrinter`. For example:

              QGraphicsScene scene = new QGraphicsScene();
              scene.addRect(0d,0d,50d,50d);
              QPrinter printer = new QPrinter(QPrinter.PrinterMode.HighResolution);
              printer.setPageSize(QPrinter.PageSize.A4);

              QPainter painter = new QPainter(printer);
              scene.render(painter);

  If `source` is a null rect, this function will use `sceneRect()` to determine what to render. If `target` is a null rect, the dimensions of `painter`'s paint device will be used.

  The source rect contents will be transformed according to `aspectRatioMode` to fit into the target rect. By default, the aspect ratio is kept, and `source` is scaled to fit in `target`.

See also:
  `QGraphicsView::render()`.

### sceneRect

    public final QRectF sceneRect()

  This property holds the scene rectangle; the bounding rectangle of the scene. The scene rectangle defines the extent of the scene. It is primarily used by `QGraphicsView` to determine the view's default scrollable area, and by QGraphicsScene to manage item indexing.

  If unset, or if set to a null `QRectF`, `sceneRect()` will return the largest bounding rect of all items on the scene since the scene was created (i.e., a rectangle that grows when items are added to or moved in the scene, but never shrinks).

See also:
  `width()`, `height()`, and `QGraphicsView::sceneRect`.

### selectedItems

    public final java.util.List selectedItems()

  Returns a list of all currently selected items. The items are returned in no particular order.

See also:
  `setSelectionArea()`.

### selectionArea

    public final QPainterPath selectionArea()

  Returns the selection area that was previously set with `setSelectionArea()`, or an empty `QPainterPath` if no selection area has been set.

See also:
  `setSelectionArea()`.

### setActiveWindow

    public final void setActiveWindow(QGraphicsWidget widget)

  Activates `widget`, which must be a widget in this scene. You can also pass 0 for `widget`, in which case QGraphicsScene will deactivate any currently active window.

See also:
  `activeWindow()`, and `QGraphicsWidget::isActiveWindow()`.

### setBackgroundBrush

    public final void setBackgroundBrush(QBrush brush)

  This property holds the background brush of the scene. Set this property to changes the scene's background to a different color, gradient or texture. The default background brush is `Qt::NoBrush` . The background is drawn before (behind) the items.

  Example:

              QGraphicsScene scene = new QGraphicsScene();
              QGraphicsView view = new QGraphicsView(scene);
              view.show();

              // a blue background
              scene.setBackgroundBrush(new QBrush(QColor.blue));

              // a gradient background
              QRadialGradient gradient = new QRadialGradient(0, 0, 10);
              gradient.setSpread(QGradient.Spread.RepeatSpread);
              scene.setBackgroundBrush(new QBrush(gradient));

  `QGraphicsScene::render()` calls `drawBackground()` to draw the scene background. For more detailed control over how the background is drawn, you can reimplement `drawBackground()` in a subclass of QGraphicsScene.

### setBspTreeDepth

    public final void setBspTreeDepth(int depth)

  This property holds the depth of QGraphicsScene's BSP index tree. This property has no effect when `NoIndex` is used.

  This value determines the depth of QGraphicsScene's BSP tree. The depth directly affects QGraphicsScene's performance and memory usage; the latter growing exponentially with the depth of the tree. With an optimal tree depth, QGraphicsScene can instantly determine the locality of items, even for scenes with thousands or millions of items. This also greatly improves rendering performance.

  By default, the value is 0, in which case Qt will guess a reasonable default depth based on the size, location and number of items in the scene. If these parameters change frequently, however, you may experience slowdowns as QGraphicsScene retunes the depth internally. You can avoid potential slowdowns by fixating the tree depth through setting this property.

  The depth of the tree and the size of the scene rectangle decide the granularity of the scene's partitioning. The size of each scene segment is determined by the following algorithm:

              QSizeF segmentSize = sceneRect().size().divide(java.lang.Math.pow(2, depth - 1));

  The BSP tree has an optimal size when each segment contains between 0 and 10 items.

See also:
  `itemIndexMethod`.

### setFocus

    public final void setFocus()

  Sets focus on the scene by sending a `QFocusEvent` to the scene, passing `focusReason` as the reason. If the scene regains focus after having previously lost it while an item had focus, the last focus item will receive focus with `focusReason` as the reason.

  If the scene already has focus, this function does nothing.

See also:
  `hasFocus()`, `clearFocus()`, and `setFocusItem()`.

### setFocus

    public final void setFocus(Qt.FocusReason focusReason)

  Sets focus on the scene by sending a `QFocusEvent` to the scene, passing `focusReason` as the reason. If the scene regains focus after having previously lost it while an item had focus, the last focus item will receive focus with `focusReason` as the reason.

  If the scene already has focus, this function does nothing.

See also:
  `hasFocus()`, `clearFocus()`, and `setFocusItem()`.

### setFocusItem

    public final void setFocusItem(QGraphicsItemInterface item)

  Sets the scene's focus item to `item`, with the focus reason `focusReason`, after removing focus from any previous item that may have had focus.

  If `item` is 0, or if it either does not accept focus (i.e., it does not have the `QGraphicsItem::ItemIsFocusable` flag enabled), or is not visible or not enabled, this function only removes focus from any previous focusitem.

  If item is not 0, and the scene does not currently have focus (i.e., `hasFocus()` returns false), this function will call `setFocus()` automatically.

See also:
  `focusItem()`, `hasFocus()`, and `setFocus()`.

### setFocusItem

    public final void setFocusItem(QGraphicsItemInterface item,
                                   Qt.FocusReason focusReason)

  Sets the scene's focus item to `item`, with the focus reason `focusReason`, after removing focus from any previous item that may have had focus.

  If `item` is 0, or if it either does not accept focus (i.e., it does not have the `QGraphicsItem::ItemIsFocusable` flag enabled), or is not visible or not enabled, this function only removes focus from any previous focusitem.

  If item is not 0, and the scene does not currently have focus (i.e., `hasFocus()` returns false), this function will call `setFocus()` automatically.

See also:
  `focusItem()`, `hasFocus()`, and `setFocus()`.

### setFont

    public final void setFont(QFont font)

  This property holds the scene's default font. This property provides the scene's font. The scene font defaults to, and resolves all its entries from, QApplication::font.

  If the scene's font changes, either directly through `setFont()` or indirectly when the application font changes, QGraphicsScene first sends itself a `FontChange` event, and it then sends `FontChange` events to all top-level widget items in the scene. These items respond by resolving their own fonts to the scene, and they then notify their children, who again notify their children, and so on, until all widget items have updated their fonts.

  Changing the scene font, (directly or indirectly through `QApplication::setFont()`,) automatically schedules a redraw the entire scene.

See also:
  `QWidget::font`, `QApplication::setFont()`, `palette`, and `style()`.

### setForegroundBrush

    public final void setForegroundBrush(QBrush brush)

  This property holds the foreground brush of the scene. Change this property to set the scene's foreground to a different color, gradient or texture.

  The foreground is drawn after (on top of) the items. The default foreground brush is `Qt::NoBrush` ( i.e. the foreground is not drawn).

  Example:

              QGraphicsScene scene = new QGraphicsScene();
              QGraphicsView view = new QGraphicsView(scene);
              view.show();

              // a white semi-transparent foreground
              scene.setForegroundBrush(new QBrush(new QColor(255, 255, 255, 127)));

              // a grid foreground
              scene.setForegroundBrush(new QBrush(QColor.lightGray, Qt.BrushStyle.CrossPattern));

  `QGraphicsScene::render()` calls `drawForeground()` to draw the scene foreground. For more detailed control over how the foreground is drawn, you can reimplement the `drawForeground()` function in a QGraphicsScene subclass.

### setItemIndexMethod

    public final void setItemIndexMethod(QGraphicsScene.ItemIndexMethod method)

  This property holds the item indexing method. QGraphicsScene applies an indexing algorithm to the scene, to speed up item discovery functions like `items()` and `itemAt()`. Indexing is most efficient for static scenes (i.e., where items don't move around). For dynamic scenes, or scenes with many animated items, the index bookkeeping can outweight the fast lookup speeds.

  For the common case, the default index method `BspTreeIndex` works fine. If your scene uses many animations and you are experiencing slowness, you can disable indexing by calling `setItemIndexMethod(NoIndex)`.

See also:
  `bspTreeDepth`.

### setPalette

    public final void setPalette(QPalette palette)

  This property holds the scene's default palette. This property provides the scene's palette. The scene palette defaults to, and resolves all its entries from, QApplication::palette.

  If the scene's palette changes, either directly through `setPalette()` or indirectly when the application palette changes, QGraphicsScene first sends itself a `PaletteChange` event, and it then sends `PaletteChange` events to all top-level widget items in the scene. These items respond by resolving their own palettes to the scene, and they then notify their children, who again notify their children, and so on, until all widget items have updated their palettes.

  Changing the scene palette, (directly or indirectly through `QApplication::setPalette()`,) automatically schedules a redraw the entire scene.

See also:
  `QWidget::palette`, `QApplication::setPalette()`, `font`, and `style()`.

### setSceneRect

    public final void setSceneRect(QRectF rect)

  This property holds the scene rectangle; the bounding rectangle of the scene. The scene rectangle defines the extent of the scene. It is primarily used by `QGraphicsView` to determine the view's default scrollable area, and by QGraphicsScene to manage item indexing.

  If unset, or if set to a null `QRectF`, `sceneRect()` will return the largest bounding rect of all items on the scene since the scene was created (i.e., a rectangle that grows when items are added to or moved in the scene, but never shrinks).

See also:
  `width()`, `height()`, and `QGraphicsView::sceneRect`.

### setSceneRect

    public final void setSceneRect(double x,
                                   double y,
                                   double w,
                                   double h)

  This property holds the scene rectangle; the bounding rectangle of the scene. The scene rectangle defines the extent of the scene. It is primarily used by `QGraphicsView` to determine the view's default scrollable area, and by QGraphicsScene to manage item indexing.

  If unset, or if set to a null `QRectF`, `sceneRect()` will return the largest bounding rect of all items on the scene since the scene was created (i.e., a rectangle that grows when items are added to or moved in the scene, but never shrinks).

See also:
  `width()`, `height()`, and `QGraphicsView::sceneRect`.

### setSelectionArea

    public final void setSelectionArea(QPainterPath path)

  Sets the selection area to `path`. All items within this area are immediately selected, and all items outside are unselected. You can get the list of all selected items by calling `selectedItems()`.

  For an item to be selected, it must be marked as selectable (`QGraphicsItem::ItemIsSelectable` ).

See also:
  `clearSelection()`, and `selectionArea()`.

### setSelectionArea

    public final void setSelectionArea(QPainterPath path,
                                       Qt.ItemSelectionMode arg__2)

  Sets the selection area to `path` using `mode` to determine if items are included in the selection area.

See also:
  `clearSelection()`, and `selectionArea()`.

### setStyle

    public final void setStyle(QStyle style)

  Sets or replaces the style of the scene to `style`, and reparents the style to this scene. Any previously assigned style is deleted. The scene's style defaults to `QApplication::style()`, and serves as the default for all `QGraphicsWidget` items in the scene.

  Changing the style, either directly by calling this function, or indirectly by calling `QApplication::setStyle()`, will automatically update the style for all widgets in the scene that do not have a style explicitly assigned to them.

  If `style` is 0, QGraphicsScene will revert to `QApplication::style()`.

See also:
  `style()`.

### style

    public final QStyle style()

  Returns the scene's style, or the same as `QApplication::style()` if the scene has not been explicitly assigned a style.

See also:
  `setStyle()`.

### update

See also:
  `sceneRect()`, and `changed()` .

### update

    public final void update(double x,
                             double y,
                             double w,
                             double h)

  This function is equivalent to calling update(`QRectF`(`x`, `y`, `w`, `h`));

### views

  Returns a list of all the views that display this scene.

See also:
  `QGraphicsView::scene()`.

See also:
  `height()`.

### contextMenuEvent

    protected void contextMenuEvent(QGraphicsSceneContextMenuEvent event)

  This event handler, for event `contextMenuEvent`, can be reimplemented in a subclass to receive context menu events. The default implementation forwards the event to the topmost item that accepts context menu events at the position of the event. If no items accept context menu events at this position, the event is ignored.

See also:
  `QGraphicsItem::contextMenuEvent()`.

### dragEnterEvent

    protected void dragEnterEvent(QGraphicsSceneDragDropEvent event)

  This event handler, for event `event`, can be reimplemented in a subclass to receive drag enter events for the scene.

### drawBackground

    protected void drawBackground(QPainter painter,
                                  QRectF rect)

  Draws the background of the scene using `painter`, before any items and the foreground are drawn. Reimplement this function to provide a custom background for the scene.

  All painting is done in scene coordinates. The `rect` parameter is the exposed rectangle.

  If all you want is to define a color, texture, or gradient for the background, you can call `setBackgroundBrush()` instead.

See also:
  `drawForeground()`, and `drawItems()`.

### drawForeground

    protected void drawForeground(QPainter painter,
                                  QRectF rect)

  Draws the foreground of the scene using `painter`, after the background and all items have been drawn. Reimplement this function to provide a custom foreground for the scene.

  `QGraphicsItem::focusOutEvent()`.

### focusOutEvent

    protected void focusOutEvent(QFocusEvent event)

  This event handler, for event `focusEvent`, can be reimplemented in a subclass to receive focus out events.

  The default implementation removes focus from any focus item, then removes focus from the scene.

See also:
  `QGraphicsItem::focusInEvent()`.

### helpEvent

    protected void helpEvent(QGraphicsSceneHelpEvent event)

  This event handler, for event `helpEvent`, can be reimplemented in a subclass to receive help events. The events are of type `QEvent::ToolTip` , which are created when a tooltip is requested.

  The default implementation shows the tooltip of the topmost item, i.e., the item with the highest z-value, at the mouse cursor position. If no item has a tooltip set, this function does nothing.

See also:
  `QGraphicsItem::toolTip()`, and `QGraphicsSceneHelpEvent`.

### inputMethodEvent

    protected void inputMethodEvent(QInputMethodEvent event)

  This event handler, for event `event`, can be reimplemented in a subclass to receive input method events for the scene.

  The default implementation forwards the event to the `focusItem()`. If no item currently has focus, this function does nothing.

See also:
  `QGraphicsItem::inputMethodEvent()`.

### inputMethodQuery

    public java.lang.Object inputMethodQuery(Qt.InputMethodQuery query)

  This method is used by input methods to query a set of properties of the scene to be able to support complex input method operations as support for surrounding text and reconversions.

    protected void mouseDoubleClickEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent event)

  This event handler, for event `mouseEvent`, can be reimplemented in a subclass to receive mouse doubleclick events for the scene.

  If someone doubleclicks on the scene, the scene will first receive a mouse press event, followed by a release event (i.e., a click), then a doubleclick event, and finally a release event. If the doubleclick event is delivered to a different item than the one that received the first press and release, it will be delivered as a press event. However, tripleclick events are not delivered as doubleclick events in this case.

  The default implementation is similar to `mousePressEvent()`.

### mouseMoveEvent

    protected void mouseMoveEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent event)

  This event handler, for event `mouseEvent`, can be reimplemented in a subclass to receive mouse move events for the scene.

  The default implementation depends on the mouse grabber state. If there is a mouse grabber item, the event is sent to the mouse grabber. If there are any items that accept hover events at the current position, the event is translated into a hover event and accepted; otherwise it's ignored.

  `QGraphicsItem::mousePressEvent()`, `QGraphicsItem::mouseReleaseEvent()`, `QGraphicsItem::mouseDoubleClickEvent()`, and `QGraphicsItem::setAcceptedMouseButtons()`.

### mousePressEvent

    protected void mousePressEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent event)

  This event handler, for event `mouseEvent`, can be reimplemented in a subclass to receive mouse press events for the scene.

  The default implementation depends on the state of the scene. If there is a mouse grabber item, then the event is sent to the mouse grabber. Otherwise, it is forwarded to the topmost item that accepts mouse events at the scene position from the event, and that item promptly becomes the mouse grabber item.

  If there is no item at the given position on the scene, the selection area is reset, any focus item loses its input focus, and the event is then ignored.

See also:
  `QGraphicsItem::mousePressEvent()`, and `QGraphicsItem::setAcceptedMouseButtons()`.

### mouseReleaseEvent

    protected void mouseReleaseEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent event)

  This event handler, for event `mouseEvent`, can be reimplemented in a subclass to receive mouse release events for the scene.

  The default implementation depends on the mouse grabber state. If there is no mouse grabber, the event is ignored. Otherwise, if there is a mouse grabber item, the event is sent to the mouse grabber. If this mouse release represents the last pressed button on the mouse, the mouse grabber item then loses the mouse grab.

See also:
  `QGraphicsItem::mousePressEvent()`, `QGraphicsItem::mouseMoveEvent()`, `QGraphicsItem::mouseDoubleClickEvent()`, and `QGraphicsItem::setAcceptedMouseButtons()`.

### wheelEvent

    protected void wheelEvent(QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent event)

  This event handler, for event `wheelEvent`, can be reimplemented in a subclass to receive mouse wheel events for the scene.

  By default, the event is delivered to the topmost visible item under the cursor. If ignored, the event propagates to the item beneath, and again until the event is accepted, or it reaches the scene. If no items accept the event, it is ignored.

See also:
  `QGraphicsItem::wheelEvent()`.
