Detailed Description

A vector feature renderer which uses embedded feature symbology to render per-feature symbols.

This renderer can be used for vector layers with a data provider which supports the QgsVectorDataProvider::FeatureSymbology capability, where the dataset has embedded information on how each feature should be rendered.

Since
QGIS 3.20

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer()

QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer ( QgsSymbol defaultSymbol)

Constructor for QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer.

The defaultSymbol will be used to render any feature without embedded symbology. Ownership of defaultSymbol is transferred to the renderer.

Definition at line 23 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ ~QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer()

Member Function Documentation

◆ capabilities()

QgsFeatureRenderer::Capabilities QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::capabilities ( )
overridevirtual

Returns details about internals of this renderer.

E.g. if you only want to deal with visible features:

if not renderer.capabilities().testFlag(QgsFeatureRenderer.Filter) or renderer.willRenderFeature(feature, context):
deal_with_my_feature()
else:
skip_the_curren_feature()

Reimplemented from QgsFeatureRenderer.

Definition at line 99 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ clone()

QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer * QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::clone ( ) const
overridevirtual

Create a deep copy of this renderer.

Should be implemented by all subclasses and generate a proper subclass.

Returns
A copy of this renderer

Implements QgsFeatureRenderer.

Definition at line 92 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ convertFromRenderer()

QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer * QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::convertFromRenderer ( const QgsFeatureRenderer renderer)
static

Creates a QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer from an existing renderer.

Returns
a new renderer if the conversion was possible, otherwise nullptr.

Definition at line 119 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ create()

QgsFeatureRenderer * QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::create ( QDomElement &  element,
const QgsReadWriteContext context 
)
static

Creates a new embedded symbol renderer from an XML element, using the supplied read/write context.

The caller takes ownership of the returned renderer.

Definition at line 104 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ defaultSymbol()

QgsSymbol * QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::defaultSymbol ( ) const

Returns the default symbol which will be rendered for any feature which does not have embedded symbology.

See also
setDefaultSymbol()

Definition at line 160 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ originalSymbolForFeature()

QgsSymbol * QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::originalSymbolForFeature ( const QgsFeature feature,
QgsRenderContext context 
) const
overridevirtual

Returns symbol for feature.

The difference compared to symbolForFeature() is that it returns original symbol which can be used as an identifier for renderer's rule - the former may return a temporary replacement of a symbol for use in rendering.

Since
QGIS 2.12

Reimplemented from QgsFeatureRenderer.

Definition at line 40 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ renderFeature()

bool QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::renderFeature ( const QgsFeature feature,
QgsRenderContext context,
int  layer = -1,
bool  selected = false,
bool  drawVertexMarker = false 
)
overridevirtual

Render a feature using this renderer in the given context.

Must be called between startRender() and stopRender() calls. Default implementation renders a symbol as determined by symbolForFeature() call. Returns true if the feature has been returned (this is used for example to determine whether the feature may be labelled).

If layer is not -1, the renderer should draw only a particular layer from symbols (in order to support symbol level rendering).

startRender()
stopRender()

Reimplemented from QgsFeatureRenderer.

Definition at line 56 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ save()

QDomElement QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::save ( QDomDocument &  doc,
const QgsReadWriteContext context 
)
overridevirtual

Stores renderer properties to an XML element.

Subclasses which override this method should call saveRendererData() as part of their implementation in order to store all common base class properties in the returned DOM element.

Reimplemented from QgsFeatureRenderer.

Definition at line 137 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ setDefaultSymbol()

void QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::setDefaultSymbol ( QgsSymbol symbol)

Sets the default symbol which will be rendered for any feature which does not have embedded symbology.

Ownership of symbol is transferred to the renderer.

See also
defaultSymbol()

Definition at line 165 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ startRender()

void QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::startRender ( QgsRenderContext context,
const QgsFields fields 
)
overridevirtual

Must be called when a new render cycle is started.

A call to startRender() must always be followed by a corresponding call to stopRender() after all features have been rendered.

Parameters
contextAdditional information passed to the renderer about the job which will be rendered
fieldsThe fields available for rendering
See also
stopRender()
Warning
This method is not thread safe. Before calling startRender() in a non-main thread, the renderer should instead be cloned and startRender()/stopRender() called on the clone.

Reimplemented from QgsFeatureRenderer.

Definition at line 49 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ stopRender()

void QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::stopRender ( QgsRenderContext context)
overridevirtual

Must be called when a render cycle has finished, to allow the renderer to clean up.

Calls to stopRender() must always be preceded by a call to startRender().

Warning
This method is not thread safe. Before calling startRender() in a non-main thread, the renderer should instead be cloned and startRender()/stopRender() called on the clone.

startRender()

Reimplemented from QgsFeatureRenderer.

Definition at line 73 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ symbolForFeature()

QgsSymbol * QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::symbolForFeature ( const QgsFeature feature,
QgsRenderContext context 
) const
overridevirtual

To be overridden.

Must be called between startRender() and stopRender() calls.

Parameters
featurefeature
contextrender context
Returns
returns pointer to symbol or 0 if symbol was not found

◆ symbols()

QgsSymbolList QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::symbols ( QgsRenderContext context) const
overridevirtual

Returns list of symbols used by the renderer.

Parameters
contextrender context
Since
QGIS 2.12

◆ usedAttributes()

QSet< QString > QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::usedAttributes ( const QgsRenderContext context) const
overridevirtual

Returns a list of attributes required by this renderer.

Attributes not listed in here may not have been requested from the provider at rendering time.

Returns
A set of attributes

Implements QgsFeatureRenderer.

Definition at line 79 of file qgsembeddedsymbolrenderer.cpp.

◆ usesEmbeddedSymbols()

bool QgsEmbeddedSymbolRenderer::usesEmbeddedSymbols ( ) const

Returns true if the renderer uses embedded symbols for features.

The default implementation returns false.
