Detailed Description

Abstract base class for all map tools.

Map tools are user interactive tools for manipulating the map canvas. For example map pan and zoom features are implemented as map tools.

Check whether this MapTool performs an edit operation.

If it does, we will deactivate it when editing is turned off

Definition at line 190 of file qgsmaptool.cpp.

bool QgsMapTool::isTransient ( )

virtual

Check whether this MapTool performs a zoom or pan operation.

If it does, we will be able to perform the zoom and then resume operations with the original / previously used tool.

void QgsMapTool::setAction ( QAction * action )

Use this to associate a QAction to this maptool.

Use this to associate a button to this maptool.

It has the same meaning as setAction() function except it works with a button instead of an QAction.
