  • dialogTitle

acceptLiveUpdates(self) → bool

Returns whether the button accepts live updates from QgsColorRampDialog.

Return type

bool

Returns

True if the button will be accepted immediately when the dialog’s color ramp changes

changeEvent(self, e: QEvent)
Parameters

e (QEvent) –

checkStateSet(self)
childEvent(self, QChildEvent)
