Hi all,

I would like to thank everyone who reads this thread. First off I apologize if I have posted in the wrong section, I do think I'm in the correct area (Qt).

I'm currently working on making a Signature capturing add on to an already completed app.

I've started off the main program mostly on QML and not on Qt.
No experience in C++ so I'm pretty much stumped even by the examples.

I had a few ideas on how to start:
1) The Tablet example seems usable, however I'm not sure how to replace Tablet events with the touchscreen capturing instead. I've ran the Tablet example and it doesn't respond to the touchscreen.
2) Using QML/Rectangle/MouseArea to start a Timer as the user signs which saves the coordinates and which is then drawn by a QPainter. What the QPainter draws on, I have no idea, a QImage perhaps? And how I display the QImage concurrently with the user signing?

If this procedure of using QML to call QPainter is sound, how do I start? I need some help with the C++ portion of QPainter drawing and displaying even a simple line, like painter.drawLine(0,0,100,100).

I'm willing to learn with some simple guidance, do respond if you can help.
