Detailed Description

The QgsVectorLayerLabelProvider class implements a label provider for vector layers.

Parameters for the labeling are taken from the layer's custom properties or from the given settings.

◆ QgsVectorLayerLabelProvider()

QgsVectorLayerLabelProvider::QgsVectorLayerLabelProvider ( QgsVectorLayer layer,
const QString &  providerId,
bool  withFeatureLoop,
const QgsPalLayerSettings settings,
const QString &  layerName = QString() 
)
explicit

Convenience constructor to initialize the provider from given vector layer.

Member Function Documentation

◆ drawLabel()

void QgsVectorLayerLabelProvider::drawLabel ( QgsRenderContext context,
pal::LabelPosition label 
) const
overridevirtual

draw this label at the position determined by the labeling engine

Implements QgsAbstractLabelProvider.

Reimplemented in QgsDxfRuleBasedLabelProvider, and QgsDxfLabelProvider.

Definition at line 268 of file qgsvectorlayerlabelprovider.cpp.

◆ drawLabelPrivate()

void QgsVectorLayerLabelProvider::drawLabelPrivate ( pal::LabelPosition label,
QgsRenderContext context,
QgsPalLayerSettings tmpLyr,
QgsTextRenderer::TextPart  drawType,
double  dpiRatio = 1.0 
) const
protected

Internal label drawing method.

Definition at line 376 of file qgsvectorlayerlabelprovider.cpp.

◆ getPointObstacleGeometry()

QgsGeometry QgsVectorLayerLabelProvider::getPointObstacleGeometry ( QgsFeature fet,
QgsRenderContext context,
const QgsSymbolList symbols 
)
static

Returns the geometry for a point feature which should be used as an obstacle for labels.

This obstacle geometry will respect the dimensions and offsets of the symbol used to render the point, and ensures that labels will not overlap large or offset points.

Parameters
fetpoint feature
contextrender context
symbolssymbols rendered for point feature

QGIS 2.14

◆ init()

void QgsVectorLayerLabelProvider::init ( )
protected

initialization method - called from constructors

Definition at line 56 of file qgsvectorlayerlabelprovider.cpp.

◆ labelFeatures()

QList< QgsLabelFeature * > QgsVectorLayerLabelProvider::labelFeatures ( QgsRenderContext context)
overridevirtual

Returns list of label features (they are owned by the provider and thus deleted on its destruction)

Implements QgsAbstractLabelProvider.

Definition at line 100 of file qgsvectorlayerlabelprovider.cpp.

◆ prepare()

bool QgsVectorLayerLabelProvider::prepare ( const QgsRenderContext context,
QSet< QString > &  attributeNames 
)
virtual

Prepare for registration of features.

Must be called after provider has been added to engine (uses its map settings)

Parameters
contextrender context.
attributeNameslist of attribute names to which additional required attributes shall be added
Returns
Whether the preparation was successful - if not, the provider shall not be used

Reimplemented in QgsRuleBasedLabelProvider.

Definition at line 93 of file qgsvectorlayerlabelprovider.cpp.

◆ registerFeature()

void QgsVectorLayerLabelProvider::registerFeature ( const QgsFeature feature,
QgsRenderContext context,
const QgsGeometry obstacleGeometry = QgsGeometry() 
)
virtual

Register a feature for labeling as one or more QgsLabelFeature objects stored into mLabels.

Parameters
featurefeature to label
contextrender context. The QgsExpressionContext contained within the render context must have already had the feature and fields sets prior to calling this method.
obstacleGeometryoptional obstacle geometry, if a different geometry to the feature's geometry should be used as an obstacle for labels (e.g., if the feature has been rendered with an offset point symbol, the obstacle geometry should represent the bounds of the offset symbol). If not set, the feature's original geometry will be used as an obstacle for labels.

Reimplemented in QgsRuleBasedLabelProvider.
