Detailed Description

A class for highlight features on the map.

The QgsHighlight class provides a transparent overlay canvas item for highlighting features or geometries on a map canvas.

color = QColor(Qt.red)
highlight = QgsHighlight(mapCanvas, feature, layer)
highlight.setColor(color)
color.setAlpha(50)
highlight.setFillColor(color)
highlight.show()

QgsMapLayer layer 
)

Constructor for QgsHighlight.

Parameters
mapCanvasassociated map canvas
geominitial geometry of highlight
layerassociated map layer

Definition at line 49 of file qgshighlight.cpp.

◆ QgsHighlight() [2/2]

QgsHighlight::QgsHighlight ( QgsMapCanvas mapCanvas,
const QgsFeature feature,
QgsVectorLayer layer 
)

Constructor for highlighting true feature shape using feature attributes and renderer.

Parameters
mapCanvasmap canvas

Member Function Documentation

◆ layer()

QgsMapLayer* QgsHighlight::layer ( ) const
inline

Returns the layer for which this highlight has been created.

Definition at line 108 of file qgshighlight.h.

◆ paint()

void QgsHighlight::paint ( QPainter *  painter)
overrideprotectedvirtual

function to be implemented by derived classes

Implements QgsMapCanvasItem.

Definition at line 251 of file qgshighlight.cpp.

◆ setBuffer()

void QgsHighlight::setBuffer ( double  buffer)
inline

Set line / stroke buffer in millimeters.

overridevirtual

called on changed extent or resize event to update position of the item

Reimplemented from QgsMapCanvasItem.

Definition at line 246 of file qgshighlight.cpp.

◆ updateRect()

void QgsHighlight::updateRect ( )
protected

recalculates needed rectangle
