Detailed Description

Contains settings for how a map layer will be labeled.

Definition at line 86 of file qgspallabeling.h.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ DirectionSymbols

Deprecated:
use QgsLabelLineSettings::DirectionSymbolPlacement instead
Enumerator
SymbolLeftRight 

Place direction symbols on left/right of label.

SymbolAbove 

Place direction symbols on above label.

SymbolBelow 

Place direction symbols on below label.

Definition at line 118 of file qgspallabeling.h.

◆ LinePlacementFlags

Line placement flags, which control how candidates are generated for a linear feature.

Deprecated:
Use Qgis::LabelLinePlacementFlags instead
Enumerator
OnLine 

Labels can be placed directly over a line feature.

AboveLine 

Labels can be placed above a line feature.

Unless MapOrientation is also specified this mode respects the direction of the line feature, so a line from right to left labels will have labels placed placed below the line feature.

BelowLine 

Labels can be placed below a line feature.

Unless MapOrientation is also specified this mode respects the direction of the line feature, so a line from right to left labels will have labels placed placed above the line feature.

MapOrientation 

Signifies that the AboveLine and BelowLine flags should respect the map's orientation rather than the feature's orientation.

For example, AboveLine will always result in label's being placed above a line, regardless of the line's direction.

Definition at line 103 of file qgspallabeling.h.

◆ ObstacleType

Valid obstacle types, which affect how features within the layer will act as obstacles for labels.

Enumerator
PolygonInterior 

avoid placing labels over interior of polygon (prefer placing labels totally outside or just slightly inside polygon)

PolygonBoundary 

avoid placing labels over boundary of polygon (prefer placing outside or completely inside polygon)

PolygonWhole 

avoid placing labels over ANY part of polygon. Where PolygonInterior will prefer to place labels with the smallest area of intersection between the label and the polygon, PolygonWhole will penalise any label which intersects with the polygon by an equal amount, so that placing labels over any part of the polygon is avoided.
