Detailed Description

This class provides map rendering functionality for vector tile layers.

In render() function (assumed to be run in a worker thread) it will:

fetch vector tiles using QgsVectorTileLoader

decode raw tiles into QgsFeature objects using QgsVectorTileDecoder

render tiles using a class derived from QgsVectorTileRenderer

QGIS 3.14

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsVectorTileLayerRenderer()

QgsVectorTileLayerRenderer::QgsVectorTileLayerRenderer ( QgsVectorTileLayer layer,
QgsRenderContext context 
)

Creates the renderer. Always called from main thread, should copy whatever necessary from the layer.

Definition at line 33 of file qgsvectortilelayerrenderer.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ feedback()

virtual QgsFeedback* QgsVectorTileLayerRenderer::feedback ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Access to feedback object of the layer renderer (may be nullptr)

Since
QGIS 3.0

Reimplemented from QgsMapLayerRenderer.

Definition at line 48 of file qgsvectortilelayerrenderer.h.

◆ forceRasterRender()

bool QgsVectorTileLayerRenderer::forceRasterRender ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns true if the renderer must be rendered to a raster paint device (e.g.

QImage).

Some layer settings require layers to be effectively "flattened" while rendering maps, which is achieved by first rendering the layer onto a raster paint device and then compositing the resultant image onto the final map render.

E.g. if a layer contains features with transparency or alternative blending modes, and the effects of these opacity or blending modes should be restricted to only affect other features within the SAME layer, then a flattened raster based render is required.

Subclasses should return true whenever their corresponding layer settings require the layer to always be rendered using a raster paint device.

Since
QGIS 3.18

Reimplemented from QgsMapLayerRenderer.

Definition at line 196 of file qgsvectortilelayerrenderer.cpp.

◆ render()

bool QgsVectorTileLayerRenderer::render ( )
overridevirtual

Do the rendering (based on data stored in the class).

Returns true if the layer was completely rendered successfully (i.e. the render was not canceled early).

Implements QgsMapLayerRenderer.
