+/*!
+    \class QGraphicsEffect
+    \brief The QGraphicsEffect class is the base class for all graphics effects.
+    \since 4.6
+    \ingroup multimedia
+    \ingroup graphicsview-api
+
+    Effects alter the appearance of elements by hooking into the rendering
+    pipeline and operating between the source (e.g., a QGraphicsPixmapItem),
+    and the destination device (e.g., QGraphicsView's viewport). Effects can be
+    disabled by calling setEnabled(); if the effect is disabled, the source is
+    rendered directly.
+
+    If you want to add a visual effect to a QGraphicsItem, you can either use
+    one of the standard effects, or create your own effect by making a subclass
+    of QGraphicsEffect.
+
+    Qt provides several standard effects, including:
+
+    \list
+    \o QGraphicsGrayScaleEffect - renders the item in shades of gray
+    \o QGraphicsColorizeEffect - renders the item in shades of any given color
+    \o QGraphicsPixelizeEffect - pixelizes the item with any pixel size
+    \o QGraphicsBlurEffect - blurs the item by a given radius
+    \o QGraphicsDropShadowEffect - renders a dropshadow behind the item
+    \endlist
+
+    If all you want is to add an effect to an item, you should visit the
+    documentation for the specific effect to learn more about how each effect
+    can be used.
+
+    If you want to create your own custom effect, you can start by creating a
+    subclass of QGraphicsEffect (or any of the existing effects), and
+    reimplement the virtual function draw(). This function is called whenever
+    the effect needs to redraw. draw() has two arguments: the painter, and a
+    pointer to the source (QGraphicsEffectSource). The source provides extra
+    context information, such as a pointer to the item that is rendering the
+    effect, any cached pixmap data, and the device rect bounds. See the draw()
+    documentation for more details. You can also get a pointer to the current
+    source by calling source().
+
+    If your effect changes, you can call update() to request a redraw. If your
+    custom effect changes the bounding rectangle of the source (e.g., a radial
+    glow effect may need to apply an extra margin), you can reimplement the
+    virtual boundingRectFor() function, and call updateBoundingRect() to notify
+    the framework whenever this rectangle changes. The virtual
+    sourceBoundingRectChanged() function is called to notify the effects that
+    the source's bounding rectangle has changed (e.g., if the source is a
+    QGraphicsRectItem, then if the rectangle parameters have changed).

+    \since 4.6
+    \ingroup multimedia
+
+    \brief The QPixmapBlurFilter class provides blur filtering
+    for pixmaps.
+
+    QPixmapBlurFilter implements a blur pixmap filter,
+    which is applied when \l{QPixmapFilter::}{draw()} is called.
+
+    The filter lets you specialize the radius of the blur as well
+    as the quality.
+
+    By default, the blur effect is produced by applying an exponential
+    filter generated from the specified blurRadius().  Paint engines
+    may override this with a custom blur that is faster on the
+    underlying hardware.

+    CUSTOM SHADER CODE
     ==================
 
     The use of custom shader code is supported by the engine for drawImage and
     drawPixmap calls. This is implemented via hooks in the fragment pipeline.
+
     The custom shader is passed to the engine as a partial fragment shader
-    (QGLCustomizedShader). The shader will implement a pre-defined method name
-    which Qt's fragment pipeline will call. There are two different hooks which
-    can be implemented as custom shader code:
+    (QGLCustomShaderStage). The shader will implement a pre-defined method name
+    which Qt's fragment pipeline will call:
+
+        lowp vec4 customShader(sampler2d src, vec2 srcCoords)
 
-        mediump vec4 customShader(sampler2d src, vec2 srcCoords)
-        mediump vec4 customShaderWithDest(sampler2d dest, sampler2d src, vec2 srcCoords)
+    The provided src and srcCoords parameters can be used to sample from the
+    source image.
 
+    Transformations, clipping, opacity, and composition modes set using QPainter
+    will be respected when using the custom shader hook.

+/*!
+    \class QGraphicsShaderEffect
+    \brief The QGraphicsShaderEffect class is the base class for creating
+    custom GLSL shader effects in a QGraphicsScene.
+    \since 4.6
+    \ingroup multimedia
+    \ingroup graphicsview-api
+
+    The specific effect is defined by a fragment of GLSL source code
+    supplied to setPixelShaderFragment().  This source code must define a
+    function called \c{srcPixel()} that returns the source pixel value
+    to use in the paint engine's shader program.  The shader fragment
+    is linked with the regular shader code used by the GL2 paint engine
+    to construct a complete QGLShaderProgram.
+
+    The following example shader converts the incoming pixmap to
+    grayscale and then applies a colorize operation using the
+    \c effectColor value:
+
+    \code
+    static char const colorizeShaderCode[] =
+        "varying highp vec2 textureCoords;\n"
+        "uniform sampler2D imageTexture;\n"
+        "uniform lowp vec4 effectColor;\n"
+        "lowp vec4 srcPixel() {\n"
+        "    vec4 src = texture2D(imageTexture, textureCoords);\n"
+        "    float gray = dot(src.rgb, vec3(0.212671, 0.715160, 0.072169));\n"
+        "    vec4 colorize = 1.0-((1.0-gray)*(1.0-effectColor));\n"
+        "    return vec4(colorize.rgb, src.a);\n"
+        "}";
+    \endcode
+
+    To use this shader code, it is necessary to define a subclass
+    of QGraphicsShaderEffect as follows:
+
+    \code
+    class ColorizeEffect : public QGraphicsShaderEffect
+    {
+        Q_OBJECT
+    public:
+        ColorizeEffect(QObject *parent = 0)
+            : QGraphicsShaderEffect(parent), color(Qt::black)
+        {
+            setPixelShaderFragment(colorizeShaderCode);
+        }
+
+        QColor effectColor() const { return color; }
+        void setEffectColor(const QColor& c)
+        {
+            color = c;
+            setUniformsDirty();
+        }
+
+    protected:
+        void setUniforms(QGLShaderProgram *program)
+        {
+            program->setUniformValue("effectColor", color);
+        }
+
+    private:
+        QColor color;
+    };
+    \endcode
+
+    The setUniforms() function is called when the effect is about
+    to be used for drawing to give the subclass the opportunity to
+    set effect-specific uniform variables.
+
+    QGraphicsShaderEffect is only supported when the GL2 paint engine
+    is in use.  When any other paint engine is in use (GL1, raster, etc),
+    the drawItem() method will draw its item argument directly with
+    no effect applied.
