I haven't done graphics stuff in a while (unfortunately), but this should be as simple as: scene_xform = item->sceneTransform(); local_xform = next_parent->sceneTransform().inverted() * scene_xform; item.setTransform(local_xform); item.setScale(1.0); item.setRotation(0.0); item.setParentItem(next_parent); AFAIR, QGI's rotation and scale need to be reset b/c they are combined with QGI's transform() Hope this help!
