Detailed Description

TheQSvgWidget class provides a widget that is used to display the contents of Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) files.

This class enables developers to display SVG drawings alongside standard widgets, and is used in much the same way asQLabel is used for displaying text and bitmap images.

SinceQSvgWidget is a subclass ofQWidget, SVG drawings are rendered using the properties of the display. More control can be exercised over the rendering process with theQSvgRenderer class, as this can be used to paint onto other paint devices, such asQImage andQGLWidget. The renderer used by the widget can be obtained with therenderer() function.

EachQSvgWidget can be constructed with the file name of a SVG file, or they can be constructed without a specific file to render and one can be supplied later. Theload() functions provide two different ways to load an SVG file: they accept either the file name of an SVG file or aQByteArray containing the serialized XML representation of an SVG file.

By default, the widget provides a size hint to reflect the size of the drawing that it displays. If no data has been loaded, the widget provides the defaultQWidget size hint. Subclass this class and reimplementsizeHint() if you need to customize this behavior.
