Detailed Description

Stores metadata about one symbol layer class.

Note
It's necessary to implement createSymbolLayer() function. In C++ you can use QgsSymbolLayerMetadata convenience class.

Member Function Documentation

◆ createSymbolLayer()

virtual QgsSymbolLayer* QgsSymbolLayerAbstractMetadata::createSymbolLayer ( const QVariantMap &  map)
pure virtual

Create a symbol layer of this type given the map of properties.

Implemented in QgsSymbolLayerMetadata.

◆ createSymbolLayerFromSld()

virtual QgsSymbolLayer* QgsSymbolLayerAbstractMetadata::createSymbolLayerFromSld ( QDomElement &  )
inlinevirtual

Create a symbol layer of this type given the map of properties.

Reimplemented in QgsSymbolLayerMetadata.

Definition at line 63 of file qgssymbollayerregistry.h.

◆ createSymbolLayerWidget()

virtual QgsSymbolLayerWidget* QgsSymbolLayerAbstractMetadata::createSymbolLayerWidget ( QgsVectorLayer )
inlinevirtual

Create widget for symbol layer of this type. Can return nullptr if there's no GUI.

Reimplemented in QgsSymbolLayerMetadata.

Definition at line 61 of file qgssymbollayerregistry.h.

◆ name()

QString QgsSymbolLayerAbstractMetadata::name ( ) const
inline

Definition at line 54 of file qgssymbollayerregistry.h.

◆ resolveFonts()

virtual void QgsSymbolLayerAbstractMetadata::resolveFonts ( const QVariantMap &  properties,
const QgsReadWriteContext context 
)
inlinevirtual

Resolve fonts from the symbol layer's properties.

This tests whether the required fonts from the encoded properties are available on the system, and records warnings in the context if not.

Since
QGIS 3.20

Reimplemented in QgsSymbolLayerMetadata.

Definition at line 87 of file qgssymbollayerregistry.h.

◆ resolvePaths()

virtual void QgsSymbolLayerAbstractMetadata::resolvePaths ( QVariantMap &  properties,
const QgsPathResolver pathResolver,
bool  saving 
)
inlinevirtual

Resolve paths in symbol layer's properties (if there are any paths).

When saving is true, paths are converted from absolute to relative, when saving is false, paths are converted from relative to absolute. This ensures that paths in project files can be relative, but in symbol layer instances the paths are always absolute

Reimplemented in QgsSymbolLayerMetadata.
