Detailed Description

Stores GUI metadata about one layout item class.

This is a companion to QgsLayoutItemAbstractMetadata, storing only the components related to the GUI behavior of a layout item.

Note

In C++ you can use QgsLayoutItemGuiMetadata convenience class.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata()

QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata ( int  type, const QString &  visibleName, const QString &  groupId = QString(), bool  isNodeBased = false, Flags  flags = QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::Flags()  )

inline

Constructor for QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata with the specified class type.

visibleName should be set to a translated, user visible name identifying the corresponding layout item.

An optional groupId can be set, which allows grouping of related layout item classes. See QgsLayoutItemGuiMetadata for details.

If isNodeBased is true, then the corresponding item is a node based item.

Member Function Documentation

createItem()

QgsLayoutItem * QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::createItem ( QgsLayout *  layout )

virtual

Creates an instance of the corresponding item type.

Reimplemented in QgsLayoutItemGuiMetadata.

Definition at line 35 of file qgslayoutitemguiregistry.cpp.

createItemWidget()

virtual QgsLayoutItemBaseWidget * QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::createItemWidget ( QgsLayoutItem *  item )

inlinevirtual

Creates a configuration widget for an item of this type.

Can return nullptr if no configuration GUI is required.

Reimplemented in QgsLayoutItemGuiMetadata.

Definition at line 124 of file qgslayoutitemguiregistry.h.

createNodeRubberBand()

QAbstractGraphicsShapeItem * QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::createNodeRubberBand ( QgsLayoutView *  view )

virtual

Creates a rubber band for use when creating layout node based items of this type.

Can return nullptr if no rubber band should be created. The default behavior is to return nullptr.

createRubberBand()

Reimplemented in QgsLayoutItemGuiMetadata.

Definition at line 30 of file qgslayoutitemguiregistry.cpp.

createRubberBand()

QgsLayoutViewRubberBand * QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::createRubberBand ( QgsLayoutView *  view )

virtual

Creates a rubber band for use when creating layout items of this type.

Can return nullptr if no rubber band should be created. The default behavior is to create a rectangular rubber band.

creationIcon()

virtual QIcon QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::creationIcon ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns an icon representing creation of the layout item type.

Reimplemented in QgsLayoutItemGuiMetadata.

Definition at line 104 of file qgslayoutitemguiregistry.h.

flags()

Flags QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::flags ( ) const

inline

Returns item flags.

Definition at line 84 of file qgslayoutitemguiregistry.h.

groupId()

QString QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::groupId ( ) const

inline

Returns the item group ID, if set.

Definition at line 89 of file qgslayoutitemguiregistry.h.

isNodeBased()

bool QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::isNodeBased ( ) const

inline

Returns true if the associated item is a node based item.

Definition at line 94 of file qgslayoutitemguiregistry.h.

newItemAddedToLayout()

void QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::newItemAddedToLayout ( QgsLayoutItem *  item )

virtual

Called when a newly created item of the associated type has been added to a layout.

This is only called for additions which result from GUI operations - i.e. it is not called for items added from templates.

Reimplemented in QgsLayoutItemGuiMetadata.

Definition at line 40 of file qgslayoutitemguiregistry.cpp.

type()

int QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::type ( ) const

inline

Returns the unique item type code for the layout item class.

Definition at line 79 of file qgslayoutitemguiregistry.h.

visibleName()

QString QgsLayoutItemAbstractGuiMetadata::visibleName ( ) const

inline

Returns a translated, user visible name identifying the corresponding layout item.
