+
+
+The QPen class defines how a <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a> should draw lines and outlines
+of shapes.
+<p>
+
+
+
+<p> A pen has a style, width, color, cap style and join style.
+<p> The pen style defines the line type. The default pen style is <a href="qt.html#PenStyle-enum">Qt::SolidLine</a>. Setting the style to <a href="qt.html#PenStyle-enum">NoPen</a> tells the painter to
+not draw lines or outlines.
+<p> When drawing 1 pixel wide diagonal lines you can either use a very
+fast algorithm (specified by a line width of 0, which is the
+default), or a slower but more accurate algorithm (specified by a
+line width of 1). For horizontal and vertical lines a line width
+of 0 is the same as a line width of 1. The cap and join style have
+no effect on 0-width lines.
+<p> The pen color defines the color of lines and text. The default
+line color is black. The <a href="qcolor.html">QColor</a> documentation lists predefined
+colors.
+<p> The cap style defines how the end points of lines are drawn. The
+join style defines how the joins between two lines are drawn when
+multiple connected lines are drawn (<a href="qpainter.html#drawPolyline">QPainter::drawPolyline</a>()
+etc.). The cap and join styles only apply to wide lines, i.e. when
+the width is 1 or greater.
+<p> Use the <a href="qbrush.html">QBrush</a> class to specify fill styles.
+<p> Example:
+<pre>
+ <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a> painter;
+ QPen pen( red, 2 ); // red solid line, 2 pixels wide
+ painter.<a href="qpainter.html#begin">begin</a>( &amp;anyPaintDevice ); // paint something
+ painter.<a href="qpainter.html#setPen">setPen</a>( pen ); // set the red, wide pen
+ painter.<a href="qpainter.html#drawRect">drawRect</a>( 40,30, 200,100 ); // draw a rectangle
+ painter.<a href="qpainter.html#setPen">setPen</a>( blue ); // set blue pen, 0 pixel width
+ painter.<a href="qpainter.html#drawLine">drawLine</a>( 40,30, 240,130 ); // draw a diagonal in rectangle
+ painter.<a href="qpainter.html#end">end</a>(); // painting done
+ </pre>
+
+<p> See the <a href="qt.html#PenStyle-enum">Qt::PenStyle</a> enum type for a complete list of pen
+styles.
+<p> With reference to the end points of lines, for wide (non-0-width)
+pens it depends on the cap style whether the end point is drawn or
+not. <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a> will try to make sure that the end point is drawn
+for 0-width pens, but this cannot be absolutely guaranteed because
+the underlying drawing engine is free to use any (typically
+accelerated) algorithm for drawing 0-width lines. On all tested
+systems, however, the end point of at least all non-diagonal lines
+are drawn.
+<p> A pen's <a href="#color">color</a>(), <a href="#width">width</a>(), <a href="#style">style</a>(), <a href="#capStyle">capStyle</a>() and <a href="#joinStyle">joinStyle</a>() can
+be set in the constructor or later with <a href="#setColor">setColor</a>(), <a href="#setWidth">setWidth</a>(),
+<a href="#setStyle">setStyle</a>(), <a href="#setCapStyle">setCapStyle</a>() and <a href="#setJoinStyle">setJoinStyle</a>(). Pens may also be
+compared and streamed.
