Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsLayoutMultiFrame()

QgsLayoutMultiFrame::QgsLayoutMultiFrame ( QgsLayout layout)

Construct a new multiframe item, attached to the specified layout.

Definition at line 24 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

◆ ~QgsLayoutMultiFrame()

QgsLayoutMultiFrame::~QgsLayoutMultiFrame ( )

Definition at line 33 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ addFrame()

void QgsLayoutMultiFrame::addFrame ( QgsLayoutFrame frame,
bool  recalcFrameSizes = true

See also
removeFrame()

Definition at line 55 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

◆ beginCommand()

void QgsLayoutMultiFrame::beginCommand ( const QString &  commandText,
QgsLayoutMultiFrame::UndoCommand  command = UndoNone 
)

Starts new undo command for this item.

The commandText should be a capitalized, imperative tense description (e.g. "Add Map Item"). If specified, multiple consecutive commands for this item with the same command will be collapsed into a single undo command in the layout history.

See also
endCommand()
cancelCommand()

Definition at line 282 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

◆ cancelCommand()

void QgsLayoutMultiFrame::cancelCommand ( )

Cancels the current item command and discards it.

See also
beginCommand()
endCommand()

Definition at line 296 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

void QgsLayoutMultiFrame::contentsChanged ( )
signal

Emitted when the contents of the multi frame have changed and the frames must be redrawn.

◆ createCommand()

QgsAbstractLayoutUndoCommand * QgsLayoutMultiFrame::createCommand ( const QString &  text,
int  id,
QUndoCommand *  parent = nullptr 
)
overridevirtual

Creates a new layout undo command with the specified text and parent.

The id argument can be used to specify an id number for the source event - this is used to determine whether QUndoCommand command compression can apply to the command.

Implements QgsLayoutUndoObjectInterface.

Definition at line 277 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

◆ createNewFrame()

QgsLayoutFrame * QgsLayoutMultiFrame::createNewFrame ( QgsLayoutFrame currentFrame,
QPointF  pos,
QSizeF  size 
)

Creates a new frame and adds it to the multi frame and layout.

Parameters
currentFramean existing QgsLayoutFrame from which to copy the size and general frame properties (e.g., frame style, background, rendering settings).
posposition of top-left corner of the new frame, in layout units
sizesize of the new frame, in layout units

Definition at line 246 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

◆ deleteFrames()

virtual

Returns the multiframe display name.

Reimplemented in QgsLayoutItemHtml, QgsLayoutItemAttributeTable, and QgsLayoutItemTextTable.

Definition at line 272 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

◆ endCommand()

Definition at line 290 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

◆ finalizeRestoreFromXml()

void QgsLayoutMultiFrame::finalizeRestoreFromXml ( )
virtual

Called after all pending items have been restored from XML.

Multiframes can use this method to run steps which must take place after all items have been restored to the layout, such as connecting to signals emitted by other items, which may not have existed in the layout at the time readXml() was called. E.g. a scalebar can use this to connect to its linked map item after restoration from XML.

See also
readXml()

Reimplemented in QgsLayoutItemAttributeTable.

Definition at line 302 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

◆ findNearbyPageBreak()

double QgsLayoutMultiFrame::findNearbyPageBreak ( double  yPos)
virtual

Finds the optimal position to break a frame at.

Parameters
yPosmaximum vertical position for break, in layout units.
Returns
the optimal breakable position which occurs in the multi frame close to and before the specified yPos

Reimplemented in QgsLayoutItemHtml.

Definition at line 50 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

◆ fixedFrameSize()

QSizeF QgsLayoutMultiFrame::fixedFrameSize ( int  frameIndex = -1) const
virtual

Returns the fixed size for a frame, if desired.

If the fixed frame size changes, the sizes of all frames can be recalculated by calling recalculateFrameRects().

See also
fixedFrameSize()
recalculateFrameRects()

Reimplemented in QgsLayoutTable.

Definition at line 44 of file qgslayoutmultiframe.cpp.

◆ readPropertiesFromElement()

bool QgsLayoutMultiFrame::readPropertiesFromElement ( const QDomElement &  element,

)
protectedvirtual

Parameters
elementis the DOM element for the multiframe
documentDOM document
contextread write context

Note that item subclasses should not rely on all other items being present in the layout at the time this method is called. Instead, any connections and links to other items must be made in the finalizeRestoreFromXml() method. E.g. when restoring a scalebar, the connection to the linked map's signals should be implemented in finalizeRestoreFromXml(), not readPropertiesFromElement().

See also
readXml()

◆ recalculateFrameSizes

void QgsLayoutMultiFrame::recalculateFrameSizes ( )
virtualslot

Recalculates the portion of the multiframe item which is shown in each of its component frames.

If the resize mode is set to anything but UseExistingFrames then this may cause new frames to be added or frames to be removed, in order to fit the current size of the multiframe's content.
