Member Enumeration Documentation

Raster data types.

This is modified and extended copy of GDALDataType.

Enumerator:
UnknownDataType 

Unknown or unspecified type

Byte 

Eight bit unsigned integer (quint8)

UInt16 

Sixteen bit unsigned integer (quint16)

Int16 

Sixteen bit signed integer (qint16)

UInt32 

Thirty two bit unsigned integer (quint32)

Int32 

Thirty two bit signed integer (qint32)

Float32 

Thirty two bit floating point (float)

Float64 

Sixty four bit floating point (double)

CInt16 

Complex Int16

CInt32 

Complex Int32

CFloat32 

Complex Float32

CFloat64 

Complex Float64

ARGB32 

Color, alpha, red, green, blue, 4 bytes the same as QImage::Format_ARGB32

ARGB32_Premultiplied

Enumerator:
Point 
Line

Note
that QGIS < 1.4 api had only Meters, Feet, Degrees and UnknownUnit
and QGIS >1.8 returns to that

The extents have been calculated by a provider of a layer.

ProviderCountCalcEvent 

The row count has been calculated by a provider of a layer.

Used for symbology operations.

Member Data Documentation

double QGis::DEFAULT_HIGHLIGHT_BUFFER_MM = 0.5
static

Default highlight buffer in mm.

Note
added in 2.3
const QColor QGis::DEFAULT_HIGHLIGHT_COLOR = QColor( 255, 0, 0, 128 )
static

Default highlight color.

The transparency is expected to only be applied to polygon fill. Lines and outlines are rendered opaque.

Note
added in 2.3
double QGis::DEFAULT_HIGHLIGHT_MIN_WIDTH_MM = 1.0
static

Default highlight line/outline minimum width in mm.

Note
added in 2.3
const double QGis::DEFAULT_IDENTIFY_RADIUS = 0.5
static

Old search radius in % of canvas width.

Deprecated:
since 2.3, use DEFAULT_SEARCH_RADIUS_MM
const float QGis::DEFAULT_MAPTOPIXEL_THRESHOLD = 1.0f
static

Default threshold between map coordinates and device coordinates for map2pixel simplification.

const double QGis::DEFAULT_SEARCH_RADIUS_MM = 2.
static

Identify search radius in mm.
