Public Slots

void refreshLayerSymbology (const QString &layerId)
 Force refresh of layer symbology. Normally not needed as the changes of layer's renderer are monitored by the model.

Signals

void currentLayerChanged (QgsMapLayer *layer)
 Emitted when a current layer is changed.

Detailed Description

The QgsLayerTreeView class extends QTreeView and provides some additional functionality when working with a layer tree.

The view updates expanded state of layer tree nodes and also listens to changes to expanded states in the layer tree.

The view keeps track of the current layer and emits a signal when the current layer has changed.

Allows the client to specify a context menu provider with custom actions. Also it comes with a set of default actions that can be used when building context menu.
