The QBrush class defines the fill pattern of shapes drawn using the QPainter. More...
#include <qbrush.h>
A brush has a style and a color. One of the brush styles is a custom pattern, which is defined by a QPixmap.
The brush style defines the fill pattern. The default brush style is NoBrush (depends on how you construct a brush). This style tells the
painter to not fill shapes. The standard style for filling is called SolidPattern.
The brush color defines the color of the fill pattern. The QColor documentation lists the predefined colors.
Use the QPen class for specifying line/outline styles.
Example:
QPainter painter;
QBrush brush( yellow ); // yellow solid pattern
painter.begin( &anyPaintDevice ); // paint something
painter.setBrush( brush ); // set the yellow brush
painter.setPen( NoPen ); // do not draw outline
painter.drawRect( 40,30, 200,100 ); // draw filled rectangle
painter.setBrush( NoBrush ); // do not fill
painter.setPen( black ); // set black pen, 0 pixel width
painter.drawRect( 10,10, 30,20 ); // draw rectangle outline
painter.end(); // painting done
See the setStyle() function for a complete list of brush styles.

Constructs a black brush with the specified style.
See also: setStyle().
Constructs a brush with a specified color and style.
See also: setColor() and setStyle().
Constructs a brush with a specified color and a custom pattern.
The color will only have an effect for monochrome pixmaps, i.e. QPixmap::depth() == 1.
See also: setColor() and setPixmap().
Constructs a brush which is a shallow copy of b.
Constructs a default black brush with the style NoBrush (will not fill
shapes).
Destroys the brush.
Returns the brush color.
See also: setColor().
Returns TRUE if the brush is different from b, or FALSE if the brushes are equal.
Two brushes are different if they have different styles, colors or pixmaps.
See also: operator==().
Assigns b to this brush and returns a reference to this brush.
Returns TRUE if the brush is equal to b, or FALSE if the brushes are different.
Two brushes are equal if they have equal styles, colors and pixmaps.
See also: operator!=().
Returns a pointer to the custom brush pattern.
A null pointer is returned if no custom brush pattern has been set.
See also: setPixmap().
Sets the brush color to c.
See also: color() and setStyle().
Examples: picture/makepic.cpp
Sets the brush pixmap. The style is set to CustomPattern.
The curren brush color will only have an effect for monochrome pixmaps, i.e. QPixmap::depth() == 1.
See also: pixmap() and color().
Sets the brush style to s.
The brush styles are:
NoBrush will not fill shapes (default).
SolidPattern solid (100%) fill pattern.
Dense1Pattern 94% fill pattern.
Dense2Pattern 88% fill pattern.
Dense3Pattern 63% fill pattern.
Dense4Pattern 50% fill pattern.
Dense5Pattern 37% fill pattern.
Dense6Pattern 12% fill pattern.
Dense7Pattern 6% fill pattern.
HorPattern horizontal lines pattern.
VerPattern vertical lines pattern.
CrossPattern crossing lines pattern.
BDiagPattern diagonal lines (directed / ) pattern.
FDiagPattern diagonal lines (directed \ ) pattern.
DiagCrossPattern diagonal crossing lines pattern.
CustomPattern set when a pixmap pattern is being used.
See also: style().
Returns the brush style.
See also: setStyle().
Writes a brush to the stream and returns a reference to the stream.
The serialization format is:
CustomPattern: the brush pixmap (QPixmap)
Reads a brush from the stream and returns a reference to the stream.
