Detailed Description

Stores a fragment of document along with formatting overrides to be used when rendering the fragment.

Text fragments consist of either a block of text or another atomic component of a document (such as an image).

Each fragment has an associated characterFormat(), which specifies the text formatting overrides to use when rendering the fragment. Additionally, the characterFormat() may contain properties for other fragment types, such as image paths and sizes for image fragments.

Warning

This API is not considered stable and may change in future QGIS versions.

applyCapitalization()

void QgsTextFragment::applyCapitalization

(

Qgis::Capitalization

capitalization

)

Applies a capitalization style to the fragment's text.

Since

QGIS 3.16

Definition at line 70 of file qgstextfragment.cpp.

characterFormat()

const QgsTextCharacterFormat & QgsTextFragment::characterFormat ( ) const

inline

Returns the character formatting for the fragment.

setCharacterFormat()

horizontalAdvance()

double QgsTextFragment::horizontalAdvance	(	const QFont &	font,
		const QgsRenderContext &	context,
		bool	fontHasBeenUpdatedForFragment = false,
		double	scaleFactor = 1.0
	)		const

Returns the horizontal advance associated with this fragment, when rendered using the specified base font within the specified render context.

Set fontHasBeenUpdatedForFragment to true if font already represents the character format for this fragment.

The optional scaleFactor parameter can specify a font size scaling factor. It is recommended to set this to QgsTextRenderer::calculateScaleFactorForFormat() and then manually calculations based on the resultant font metrics. Failure to do so will result in poor quality text rendering at small font sizes.
