Return type

bool

adjustPointForReferencePosition(self, point: Union[QPointF, QPoint], size: QSizeF, reference: QgsLayoutItem.ReferencePoint) QPointF

Adjusts the specified point at which a reference position of the item sits and returns the top left corner of the item, if reference point were placed at the specified position.
