RELATED FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
       void bitBlt ( QPaintDevice * dst, int dx, int dy, const QPaintDevice *
	   src, int sx, int sy, int sw, int sh, Qt::RasterOp rop, bool

DESCRIPTION
       The QPaintDevice class is the base class of objects that can be
       painted.

       A paint device is an abstraction of a two-dimensional space that can be
       drawn using a QPainter. The drawing capabilities are implemented by the
       subclasses QWidget, QPixmap, QPicture and QPrinter.

       The default coordinate system of a paint device has its origin located
       at the top-left position. X increases to the right and Y increases
       downward. The unit is one pixel. There are several ways to set up a
       user-defined coordinate system using the painter, for example, using
       QPainter::setWorldMatrix().

       Example (draw on a paint device):

	   void MyWidget::paintEvent( QPaintEvent * )
	   {
	       QPainter p;			 // our painter
	       p.begin( this );			 // start painting the widget
	       p.setPen( red );			 // red outline
	       p.setBrush( yellow );		 // yellow fill
	       p.drawEllipse( 10, 20, 100,100 ); // 100x100 ellipse at position (10, 20)
	       p.end();				 // painting done
	   }

       The bit block transfer is an extremely useful operation for copying
       pixels from one paint device to another (or to itself). It is
       implemented as the global function bitBlt().

       Example (scroll widget contents 10 pixels to the right):

	   bitBlt( myWidget, 10, 0, myWidget );

       Warning: Qt requires that a QApplication object exists before any paint
       devices can be created. Paint devices access window system resources,
       and these resources are not initialized before an application object is
       created.

       See also Graphics Classes and Image Processing Classes.

MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
QPaintDevice::QPaintDevice ( uint devflags ) [protected]
       Constructs a paint device with internal flags devflags. This
       constructor can be invoked only from QPaintDevice subclasses.

QPaintDevice::~QPaintDevice () [virtual]
       Destroys the paint device and frees window system resources.

bool QPaintDevice::cmd ( int, QPainter *, QPDevCmdParam * ) [virtual
       protected]
       Internal virtual function that interprets drawing commands from the
       painter.

       Implemented by subclasses that have no direct support for drawing
       graphics (external paint devices, for example, QPicture).

Qt::HANDLE QPaintDevice::handle () const [virtual]
       Returns the window system handle of the paint device, for low-level
       access. Using this function is not portable.

       The HANDLE type varies with platform; see qpaintdevice.h and
       qwindowdefs.h for details.

       See also x11Display().

bool QPaintDevice::isExtDev () const
       Returns TRUE if the device is an external paint device; otherwise
       returns FALSE.

       External paint devices cannot be bitBlt()'ed from. QPicture and
       QPrinter are external paint devices.

bool QPaintDevice::paintingActive () const
       Returns TRUE if the device is being painted, i.e. someone has called
       QPainter::begin() but not yet called QPainter::end() for this device;
       otherwise returns FALSE.

       See also QPainter::isActive().

RELATED FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
void bitBlt ( QPaintDevice * dst, int dx, int dy, const QPaintDevice * src,
       int sx, int sy, int sw, int sh, Qt::RasterOp rop, bool ignoreMask )
       Copies a block of pixels from src to dst, perhaps merging each pixel
       according to the raster operation rop. sx, sy is the top-left pixel in
       src (0, 0) by default, dx, dy is the top-left position in dst and sw,
       sh is the size of the copied block (all of src by default).

       The most common values for rop are CopyROP and XorROP; the Qt::RasterOp
       documentation defines all the possible values.

       If ignoreMask is FALSE (the default) and src is a masked QPixmap, the
       entire blit is masked by src->mask().

       If src, dst, sw or sh is 0, bitBlt() does nothing. If sw or sh is
       negative bitBlt() copies starting at sx (and respectively, sy) and
       ending at the right end (respectively, bottom) of src.

       src must be a QWidget or QPixmap. You cannot blit from a QPrinter, for
       example. bitBlt() does nothing if you attempt to blit from an
       unsupported device.

       bitBlt() does nothing if src has a greater depth than dst. If you need
       to for example, draw a 24-bit pixmap on an 8-bit widget, you must use
       drawPixmap().

void bitBlt ( QPaintDevice * dst, const QPoint & dp, const QPaintDevice * src,
       const QRect & sr, RasterOp rop )
       This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
       behaves essentially like the above function.

       Overloaded bitBlt() with the destination point dp and source rectangle
       sr.
