Ok, I have got it to work :) Thanks for the help.
But, I now have another problem. What I am doing is to render things using an
image library to a string (using string io), and then paint it (bitBlt) onto
a QWidget after loading it to a pixmap. However, this is really slow.
Do you think it is due to compression of the PNG image ? Is there some image
format using which this can be made faster ?
