Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ Flag

Various flags that affect drawing and placement of labels.

Enumerator
UseAllLabels 

Whether to draw all labels even if there would be collisions.

UsePartialCandidates 

Whether to use also label candidates that are partially outside of the map view.

RenderOutlineLabels 

Whether to render labels as text or outlines. Deprecated and of QGIS 3.4.3 - use defaultTextRenderFormat() instead.

DrawLabelRectOnly 

Whether to only draw the label rect and not the actual label text (used for unit tests)

DrawCandidates 

Whether to draw rectangles of generated candidates (good for debugging)

Definition at line 33 of file qgslabelingenginesettings.h.

◆ Search

Search methods in the PAL library to remove colliding labels (methods have different processing speed and number of labels placed)

Enumerator
Chain 
Popmusic_Tabu 
Popmusic_Chain 
Popmusic_Tabu_Chain 
Falp
