bool QgsLayoutSnapper::readXml ( const QDomElement &  gridElement,
const QDomDocument &  document,
const QgsReadWriteContext context 
)
overridevirtual

Sets the snapper's state from a DOM element.

snapperElement is the DOM node corresponding to the snapper.

◆ setSnapToGuides()

void QgsLayoutSnapper::setSnapToGuides ( bool  enabled)

Sets whether snapping to guides is enabled.

Definition at line 46 of file qgslayoutsnapper.cpp.

◆ setSnapToItems()

void QgsLayoutSnapper::setSnapToItems ( bool  enabled)

Sets whether snapping to items is enabled.

Definition at line 51 of file qgslayoutsnapper.cpp.

◆ setSnapTolerance()

void QgsLayoutSnapper::setSnapTolerance ( int  snapTolerance)

Sets the snap tolerance (in pixels) to use when snapping.

See also
snapTolerance()

Definition at line 36 of file qgslayoutsnapper.cpp.

◆ snapPoint()

QPointF QgsLayoutSnapper::snapPoint ( QPointF  point,
double  scaleFactor,
bool &  snapped,
QGraphicsLineItem *  horizontalSnapLine = nullptr,
QGraphicsLineItem *  verticalSnapLine = nullptr,
const QList< QgsLayoutItem * > *  ignoreItems = nullptr 
) const

Snaps a layout coordinate point.

If point was snapped, snapped will be set to true.

The scaleFactor argument should be set to the transformation from scalar transform from layout coordinates to pixels, i.e. the graphics view transform().m11() value.

This method considers snapping to the grid, snap lines, etc.

If the horizontalSnapLine and verticalSnapLine arguments are specified, then the snapper will automatically display and position these lines to indicate snapping positions to item bounds.

A list of items to ignore during the snapping can be specified via the ignoreItems list.

snapRect()

Definition at line 56 of file qgslayoutsnapper.cpp.

◆ snapPointsToGrid()

QPointF QgsLayoutSnapper::snapPointsToGrid ( const QList< QPointF > &  points,
double  scaleFactor,
bool &  snappedX,
bool &  snappedY 
) const

Snaps a set of points to the grid.

If the points were snapped, snapped will be set to true.

The scaleFactor argument should be set to the transformation from scalar transform from layout coordinates to pixels, i.e. the graphics view transform().m11() value.

If snapToGrid() is disabled, this method will not attempt to snap the points.

The returned value is the smallest delta which the points need to be shifted by in order to align one of the points to the grid.

snapPointToGrid()

Definition at line 195 of file qgslayoutsnapper.cpp.

◆ snapPointsToGuides()

double QgsLayoutSnapper::snapPointsToGuides ( const QList< double > &  points,
Qt::Orientation  orientation,
double  scaleFactor,
bool &  snapped 
) const

Snaps a set of points to the guides.

If the points were snapped, snapped will be set to true.

The scaleFactor argument should be set to the transformation from scalar transform from layout coordinates to pixels, i.e. the graphics view transform().m11() value.

If snapToGuides() is disabled, this method will not attempt to snap the points.

The returned value is the smallest delta which the points need to be shifted by in order to align one of the points to a guide.

snapPointToGuides()

Definition at line 269 of file qgslayoutsnapper.cpp.

◆ snapPointsToItems()

double QgsLayoutSnapper::snapPointsToItems ( const QList< double > &  points,
Qt::Orientation  orientation,
double  scaleFactor,
const QList< QgsLayoutItem * > &  ignoreItems,
bool &  snapped,
QGraphicsLineItem *  snapLine = nullptr 
) const

Snaps a set of points to the item bounds.

If the points were snapped, snapped will be set to true.

The scaleFactor argument should be set to the transformation from scalar transform from layout coordinates to pixels, i.e. the graphics view transform().m11() value.

If snapToItems() is disabled, this method will not attempt to snap the points.

The returned value is the smallest delta which the points need to be shifted by in order to align one of the points to an item bound.

◆ snapPointToGrid()

QPointF QgsLayoutSnapper::snapPointToGrid ( QPointF  point,
double  scaleFactor,
bool &  snappedX,
bool &  snappedY 
) const

Snaps a layout coordinate point to the grid.

If point was snapped horizontally, snappedX will be set to true. If point was snapped vertically, snappedY will be set to true.

The scaleFactor argument should be set to the transformation from scalar transform from layout coordinates to pixels, i.e. the graphics view transform().m11() value.

If snapToGrid() is disabled, this method will return the point unchanged.

snapPointsToGrid()

Definition at line 189 of file qgslayoutsnapper.cpp.

◆ snapPointToGuides()

double QgsLayoutSnapper::snapPointToGuides ( double  original,
Qt::Orientation  orientation,
double  scaleFactor,
bool &  snapped 
) const

Snaps an original layout coordinate to the guides.

If the point was snapped, snapped will be set to true.

The scaleFactor argument should be set to the transformation from scalar transform from layout coordinates to pixels, i.e. the graphics view transform().m11() value.

If snapToGuides() is disabled, this method will return the point unchanged.

◆ snapPointToItems()

double QgsLayoutSnapper::snapPointToItems ( double  original,
Qt::Orientation  orientation,
double  scaleFactor,
const QList< QgsLayoutItem * > &  ignoreItems,
bool &  snapped,
QGraphicsLineItem *  snapLine = nullptr 
) const

Snaps an original layout coordinate to the item bounds.

If the point was snapped, snapped will be set to true.

The scaleFactor argument should be set to the transformation from scalar transform from layout coordinates to pixels, i.e. the graphics view transform().m11() value.

If snapToItems() is disabled, this method will return the point unchanged.

A list of items to ignore during the snapping can be specified via the ignoreItems list.

If snapLine is specified, the snapper will automatically show (or hide) the snap line based on the result of the snap, and position it at the correct location for the snap.

snapPointsToItems()

Definition at line 309 of file qgslayoutsnapper.cpp.

◆ snapRect()

QRectF QgsLayoutSnapper::snapRect ( const QRectF &  rect,
double  scaleFactor,
bool &  snapped,
QGraphicsLineItem *  horizontalSnapLine = nullptr,
QGraphicsLineItem *  verticalSnapLine = nullptr,
const QList< QgsLayoutItem * > *  ignoreItems = nullptr 
) const

Snaps a layout coordinate rect.

If rect was snapped, snapped will be set to true.

Snapping occurs by moving the rectangle alone. The rectangle will not be resized as a result of the snap operation.

The scaleFactor argument should be set to the transformation from scalar transform from layout coordinates to pixels, i.e. the graphics view transform().m11() value.

This method considers snapping to the grid, snap lines, etc.

If the horizontalSnapLine and verticalSnapLine arguments are specified, then the snapper will automatically display and position these lines to indicate snapping positions to item bounds.

A list of items to ignore during the snapping can be specified via the ignoreItems list.

bool QgsLayoutSnapper::writeXml ( QDomElement &  parentElement,
