https://www.dropbox.com/s/phven3rriv36893/graphicsview-pathitem.png?dl=0 I wonder if there's a way to make my QGraphicsPathItem respond to mouseHoverEvents to the actual curve instead of the whole orange area as seen in the docs.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/7m8w34nitp34sgf/pipes.png?dl=0 In my application I'm not seeing the area that actually forms the path and therefor I only want a hoverEnterEvent when the bezier curve is hovered (and a hoverLeaveEvent when the bezier is left of, course).
Is that possible to achieve with QGraphicsPathItem or is that a completely wrong approach? If yes, how? If not, what QGraphics object can be considered as a replacement?
If code is really needed, let me know.
Cheers, Michael
You need to reimplement QGraphicsItem.shape to return a more accurate representation of your curve. The default implementation gives you the bounding box as you've discovered.
