Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QgsScaleCalculator::QgsScaleCalculator	(	double	dpi = `0`,
		QgsUnitTypes::DistanceUnit	mapUnits = `QgsUnitTypes::DistanceMeters`
	)

Constructor.

Parameters

dpi	Monitor resolution in dots per inch
mapUnits	Units of the data on the map

Definition at line 24 of file qgsscalecalculator.cpp.

double QgsScaleCalculator::calculate	(	const QgsRectangle &	mapExtent,
		double	canvasWidth
	)

Calculate the scale denominator.

Parameters

mapExtent	QgsRectangle containing the current map extent
canvasWidth	Width of the map canvas in pixel (physical) units

Returns: scale denominator of current map view, e.g. 1000.0 for a 1:1000 map.
