Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QgsRubberBand::QgsRubberBand ( QgsMapCanvas mapCanvas,
QGis::GeometryType  geometryType = QGis::Line 
)

Creates a new RubberBand.

Parameters
mapCanvasThe map canvas to draw onto. It's CRS will be used map points onto screen coordinates.
geometryTypeDefines how the data should be drawn onto the screen. (Use QGis::Line, QGis::Polygon or QGis::Point)
QgsRubberBand::QgsRubberBand ( QgsMapCanvas mapCanvas,
bool  isPolygon 
)

Creates a new RubberBand.

Deprecated:
Use the constructor which takes QGis::GeometryType as second argument instead
Parameters
mapCanvasThe map canvas to draw onto. It's CRS will be used map points onto screen coordinates.
isPolygontrue: draw as (multi-)polygon, false draw as (multi-)linestring

Member Function Documentation

void QgsRubberBand::addGeometry ( QgsGeometry geom,
QgsVectorLayer layer 
)

Add the geometry of an existing feature to a rubberband This is useful for multi feature highlighting.

As of 2.0, this method does not change the GeometryType any more. You need to set the GeometryType of the rubberband explicitly by calling reset or setToGeometry with appropriate arguments. setToGeometry is also to be preferred for backwards-compatibility.

Parameters
geomthe geometry object. Will be treated as a collection of vertices.
layerthe layer containing the feature, used for coord transformation to map crs. In case of 0 pointer, the coordinates are not going to be transformed.
void QgsRubberBand::addPoint ( const QgsPoint p,
bool  doUpdate = true,
int  geometryIndex = 0 
)

Add a vertex to the rubberband and update canvas.

The rendering of the vertex depends on the current GeometryType and icon. If adding more points consider using update=false for better performance

Parameters
pThe vertex/point to add
doUpdateShould the map canvas be updated immediately?
geometryIndexThe index of the feature part (in case of multipart geometries)

Add a point to the shape being created.

QgsGeometry * QgsRubberBand::asGeometry ( )

Returns the rubberband as a Geometry.

Returns
A geometry object which reflects the current state of the rubberband.
const QgsPoint * QgsRubberBand::getPoint ( int  i,
int  j = 0 
) const

Return vertex.

Parameters
iThe geometry index
jThe vertex index within geometry i
void QgsRubberBand::movePoint ( const QgsPoint p,
int  geometryIndex = 0 
)

Moves the rubber band point specified by index.

Note that if the rubber band is not used to track the last mouse position, the first point of the rubber band has two vertices

Update the line between the last added point and the mouse position.

void QgsRubberBand::movePoint ( int  index,
const QgsPoint p,
int  geometryIndex = 0 
)

Moves the rubber band point specified by index.

Note that if the rubber band is not used to track the last mouse position, the first point of the rubber band has two vertices

int QgsRubberBand::numberOfVertices ( ) const

Returns count of vertices in all lists of mPoint.

Returns
The total number of vertices
void QgsRubberBand::paint ( QPainter *  p)
protectedvirtual

Draw the shape in response to an update event.

Implements QgsMapCanvasItem.

int QgsRubberBand::partSize ( int  geometryIndex) const

Returns number of vertices in feature part.

Parameters
geometryIndexThe index of the feature part (in case of multipart geometries)
Returns
number of vertices
void QgsRubberBand::removeLastPoint ( int  geometryIndex = 0,
bool  doUpdate = true 
)

Removes the last point.

Most useful in connection with undo operations

void QgsRubberBand::removePoint ( int  index = 0,
bool  doUpdate = true,
int  geometryIndex = 0 
)

Remove a vertex from the rubberband and (optionally) update canvas.

Parameters
indexThe index of the vertex/point to remove, negative indexes start at end
doUpdateShould the map canvas be updated immediately?
geometryIndexThe index of the feature part (in case of multipart geometries)
void QgsRubberBand::reset ( QGis::GeometryType  geometryType = QGis::Line)

Clears all the geometries in this rubberband.

Sets the representation type according to geometryType.

Parameters
geometryTypeDefines how the data should be drawn onto the screen. (Use QGis::Line, QGis::Polygon or QGis::Point)

Remove all points from the shape being created.

void QgsRubberBand::reset ( bool  isPolygon)
Deprecated:
Use the reset method which takes QGis::GeometryType as second argument instead Clears all the geometries in this rubberband. Sets the representation type according to isPolygon.
Parameters
isPolygontrue: draw as (multi-)polygon, false draw as (multi-)linestring
void QgsRubberBand::setBorderColor ( const QColor &  color)

Set the border color for the rubberband.

Parameters
colorThe color used to render this rubberband
Note
Added in 2.6

Set the outline

void QgsRubberBand::setBrushStyle ( Qt::BrushStyle  brushStyle)

Set the style of the brush.

void QgsRubberBand::setColor ( const QColor &  color)

Set the color for the rubberband.

Parameters
colorThe color used to render this rubberband

Set the outline and fill color.

void QgsRubberBand::setFillColor ( const QColor &  color)

Set the fill color for the rubberband.

Added in 2.6

Set the fill color.

void QgsRubberBand::setIcon ( IconType  icon)

Sets this rubber band to a map canvas rectangle.

Parameters
rectrectangle in canvas coordinates
void QgsRubberBand::setToGeometry ( QgsGeometry geom,
QgsVectorLayer layer 
)

Sets this rubber band to the geometry of an existing feature.

This is useful for feature highlighting. In contrast to addGeometry, this method does also change the geometry type of the rubberband.

Parameters

Set the outline width.

int QgsRubberBand::size ( void  ) const

Returns number of geometries.

Returns
number of geometries
void QgsRubberBand::updateRect ( )
