Snapping in grid using qt - qt

Question

I have implemented grid in graphicsView using drawBackgroud method. Now I also want to add snap to the grid. By snap I mean that with mouse, you can't have point other than grid points. My code to grid drawn is as follows:
void CadGraphicsScene::drawBackground(QPainter *painter, const QRectF &rect)
{
const int gridSize = 50;
const int realLeft = static_cast<int>(std::floor(rect.left()));
const int realRight = static_cast<int>(std::ceil(rect.right()));
const int realTop = static_cast<int>(std::floor(rect.top()));
const int realBottom = static_cast<int>(std::ceil(rect.bottom()));
// Draw grid.
const int firstLeftGridLine = realLeft - (realLeft % gridSize);
const int firstTopGridLine = realTop - (realTop % gridSize);
QVarLengthArray<QLine, 100> lines;
for (qreal x = firstLeftGridLine; x <= realRight; x += gridSize)
lines.append(QLine(x, realTop, x, realBottom));
for (qreal y = firstTopGridLine; y <= realBottom; y += gridSize)
lines.append(QLine(realLeft, y, realRight, y));
painter->setPen(QPen(QColor(220, 220, 220), 0.0));
painter->drawLines(lines.data(), lines.size());
// Draw axes.
painter->setPen(QPen(Qt::lightGray, 0.0));
painter->drawLine(0, realTop, 0, realBottom);
painter->drawLine(realLeft, 0, realRight, 0);
}
Please help me solve the problem and complete the task.
I tried to do it using itemChange method but nothing happened:
My code to it is as follows:
snap.cpp
#include "snap.h"
#include <QApplication>
Snap::Snap(const QRect& rect, QGraphicsItem* parent,
QGraphicsScene* scene):
QGraphicsRectItem(QRectF())
{
setFlags(QGraphicsItem::ItemIsSelectable |
QGraphicsItem::ItemIsMovable |
QGraphicsItem::ItemSendsGeometryChanges);
}
void Snap::mousePressEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent *event){
offset = pos() - computeTopLeftGridPoint(pos());
QGraphicsRectItem::mousePressEvent(event);
}
QVariant Snap::itemChange(GraphicsItemChange change,
const QVariant &value)
{
if (change == ItemPositionChange && scene()) {
QPointF newPos = value.toPointF();
if(QApplication::mouseButtons() == Qt::LeftButton &&
qobject_cast<CadGraphicsScene*> (scene())){
QPointF closestPoint = computeTopLeftGridPoint(newPos);
return closestPoint+=offset;
}
else
return newPos;
}
else
return QGraphicsItem::itemChange(change, value);
}
QPointF Snap::computeTopLeftGridPoint(const QPointF& pointP){
CadGraphicsScene* customScene = qobject_cast<CadGraphicsScene*> (scene());
int gridSize = customScene->getGridSize();
qreal xV = floor(pointP.x()/gridSize)*gridSize;
qreal yV = floor(pointP.y()/gridSize)*gridSize;
return QPointF(xV, yV);
}
snap.h
#ifndef SNAP_H
#define SNAP_H
#include <QGraphicsRectItem>
#include "cadgraphicsscene.h"
class Snap : public QGraphicsRectItem
{
public:
Snap(const QRect& rect, QGraphicsItem* parent,
QGraphicsScene* scene);
protected:
void mousePressEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent *event);
QVariant itemChange(GraphicsItemChange change,
const QVariant &value);
private:
QPointF offset;
QPointF computeTopLeftGridPoint(const QPointF &pointP);
};
#endif // SNAP_H
Please help me out to snap to grid.
