add to a <a href="qgraphicsscene.html">QGraphicsScene</a>.</p>
<p>To set the item's path, pass a <a href="qpainterpath.html">QPainterPath</a> to QGraphicsPathItem's
constructor, or call the <a href="qgraphicspathitem.html#setPath">setPath</a>() function. The
<a href="qgraphicspathitem.html#pathx">path</a>() function returns
the current path.</p>
<p class="centerAlign"><img alt="" src="images/graphicsview-pathitem.png" /></p>
<p>QGraphicsPathItem uses the path to provide a reasonable
implementation of <a href="qgraphicspathitem.html#boundingRect">boundingRect</a>(), <a href="qgraphicspathitem.html#shape">shape</a>(), and <a href="qgraphicspathitem.html#contains">contains</a>(). The <a href="qgraphicspathitem.html#paint">paint</a>() function draws the path
using the item's associated pen and brush, which you can set by
calling the <a href="qabstractgraphicsshapeitem.html#setPen">setPen</a>() and <a href="qabstractgraphicsshapeitem.html#setBrush">setBrush</a>()
functions.</p>
