Detailed Description

The QgsFieldComboBox is a combo box which displays the list of fields of a given layer.

It might be combined with a QgsMapLayerComboBox to automatically update fields according to a chosen layer. If expression must be used, QgsFieldExpressionWidget shall be used instead.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsFieldComboBox()

QgsFieldComboBox::QgsFieldComboBox ( QWidget * parent = nullptr )

explicit

QgsFieldComboBox creates a combo box to display the fields of a layer.

The layer can be either manually given or dynamically set by connecting the signal QgsMapLayerComboBox::layerChanged to the slot setLayer.

Definition at line 22 of file qgsfieldcombobox.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ allowEmptyFieldName()

bool QgsFieldComboBox::allowEmptyFieldName ( ) const

Returns true if the combo box allows the empty field ("not set") choice.

See also: setAllowEmptyFieldName()

Since: QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 41 of file qgsfieldcombobox.cpp.

◆ currentField()

QString QgsFieldComboBox::currentField ( ) const

Returns the currently selected field.

Definition at line 92 of file qgsfieldcombobox.cpp.

◆ fieldChanged

void QgsFieldComboBox::fieldChanged ( const QString & fieldName )

signal

Emitted when the currently selected field changes.

◆ fields()

QgsFields QgsFieldComboBox::fields ( ) const

Returns the fields currently shown in the combobox.

This will either be fields from the associated layer() or the fields manually set by a call to setFields().

Since: QGIS 3.14

◆ indexChanged

◆ layer()

QgsVectorLayer * QgsFieldComboBox::layer ( ) const

Returns the layer currently associated with the combobox.

See also: setLayer()

Definition at line 52 of file qgsfieldcombobox.cpp.

◆ setAllowEmptyFieldName()

void QgsFieldComboBox::setAllowEmptyFieldName ( bool allowEmpty )

Sets whether an optional empty field ("not set") option is shown in the combo box.

See also: allowEmptyFieldName()

Since: QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 36 of file qgsfieldcombobox.cpp.

◆ setField

void QgsFieldComboBox::setField ( const QString & fieldName )

slot

setField sets the currently selected field

Definition at line 67 of file qgsfieldcombobox.cpp.

◆ setFields()

void QgsFieldComboBox::setFields ( const QgsFields & fields )

Manually sets the fields to use for the combo box.

This method should only be used when the combo box ISN'T associated with a layer() and needs to show the fields from an arbitrary field collection instead. Calling setFields() will automatically clear any existing layer().

See also: fields()

Since: QGIS 3.14

Definition at line 57 of file qgsfieldcombobox.cpp.

◆ setFilters()

void QgsFieldComboBox::setFilters ( QgsFieldProxyModel::Filters filters )

setFilters allows filtering according to the type of field

Definition at line 31 of file qgsfieldcombobox.cpp.

◆ setLayer

void QgsFieldComboBox::setLayer ( QgsMapLayer * layer )

slot

Sets the layer for which fields are listed in the combobox.

If no layer is set or a non-vector layer is set then the combobox will be empty.
