Member Function Documentation

◆ drawPart() [1/2]

void QgsTextRenderer::drawPart ( const QRectF &  rect,
double  rotation,
HAlignment  alignment,
const QStringList &  textLines,
QgsRenderContext context,
const QgsTextFormat format,
QgsTextRenderer::TextPart  part,
bool  drawAsOutlines = true 
)
static

Draws a single component of rendered text using the specified settings.

Parameters
rectdestination rectangle for text
rotationtext rotation
alignmenthorizontal alignment
textLineslist of lines of text to draw
contextrender context
formattext format
partcomponent of text to draw. Note that Shadow parts cannot be drawn individually and instead are drawn with their associated part (e.g., drawn together with the text or background parts)
drawAsOutlinesset to false to render text as text. This allows outputs to formats like SVG to maintain text as text objects, but at the cost of degraded rendering and may result in side effects like misaligned text buffers. This setting is deprecated and has no effect as of QGIS 3.4.3 and the text format should be set using QgsRenderContext::setTextRenderFormat() instead.

Definition at line 1766 of file qgstextrenderer.cpp.

◆ drawPart() [2/2]

void QgsTextRenderer::drawPart ( QPointF  origin,
double  rotation,
QgsTextRenderer::HAlignment  alignment,
const QStringList &  textLines,
QgsRenderContext context,
const QgsTextFormat format,
QgsTextRenderer::TextPart  part,
bool  drawAsOutlines = true 
)
static

Draws a single component of rendered text using the specified settings.

Parameters
originorigin for start of text. Y coordinate will be used as baseline.
rotationtext rotation
alignmenthorizontal alignment
textLineslist of lines of text to draw
contextrender context
formattext format
partcomponent of text to draw. Note that Shadow parts cannot be drawn individually and instead are drawn with their associated part (e.g., drawn together with the text or background parts)
drawAsOutlinesset to false to render text as text. This allows outputs to formats like SVG to maintain text as text objects, but at the cost of degraded rendering and may result in side effects like misaligned text buffers.

Draws text within a rectangle using the specified settings.

Parameters

drawAsOutlinesset to false to render text as text. This allows outputs to formats like SVG to maintain text as text objects, but at the cost of degraded rendering and may result in side effects like misaligned text buffers. This setting is deprecated and has no effect as of QGIS 3.4.3 and the text format should be set using QgsRenderContext::setTextRenderFormat() instead.

const QStringList &  textLines,
QgsRenderContext context,
const QgsTextFormat format,
bool  drawAsOutlines = true 
)
static

Draws text at a point origin using the specified settings.

Parameters
pointorigin of text
rotationtext rotation
alignmenthorizontal alignment
textLineslist of lines of text to draw
contextrender context
formattext format
drawAsOutlinesset to false to render text as text. This allows outputs to formats like SVG to maintain text as text objects, but at the cost of degraded rendering and may result in side effects like misaligned text buffers. This setting is deprecated and has no effect as of QGIS 3.4.3 and the text format should be set using QgsRenderContext::setTextRenderFormat() instead.

◆ fontMetrics()

QFontMetricsF QgsTextRenderer::fontMetrics ( QgsRenderContext context,
const QgsTextFormat format 
)
static

Returns the font metrics for the given text format, when rendered in the specified render context.

The font metrics will take into account all scaling required by the render context.

Since
QGIS 3.2

Definition at line 1874 of file qgstextrenderer.cpp.

◆ sizeToPixel()

int QgsTextRenderer::sizeToPixel ( double  size,
const QgsRenderContext c,
QgsUnitTypes::RenderUnit  unit,
const QgsMapUnitScale mapUnitScale = QgsMapUnitScale() 
)
static

Calculates pixel size (considering output size should be in pixel or map units, scale factors and optionally oversampling)

Parameters
sizesize to convert
crendercontext
unitsize units
mapUnitScalea mapUnitScale clamper
Returns
font pixel size

Definition at line 1706 of file qgstextrenderer.cpp.
