Class: QgsLayoutItemMapItemClipPathSettings

class qgis.core.QgsLayoutItemMapItemClipPathSettings(map: QgsLayoutItemMap = None)

Bases: PyQt5.QtCore.QObject

Constructor for QgsLayoutItemMapItemClipPathSettings, with the specified map parent.

Contains settings relating to clipping a layout map by another layout item.

Methods

childEvent

clipPathInMapItemCoordinates

Returns the clipping path geometry, in the map item’s coordinate space.

clippedMapExtent

Returns the geometry to use for clipping the parent map, in the map item’s CRS.

connectNotify

customEvent

disconnectNotify

enabled

Returns True if the map content should be clipped to the associated item.

featureClippingType

Returns the feature clipping type to apply when clipping to the associated item.

finalizeRestoreFromXml

To be called after all pending items have been restored from XML.

forceLabelsInsideClipPath

Returns True if labels should only be placed inside the clip path geometry.

isActive

Returns True if the item clipping is enabled and set to a valid source item.

isSignalConnected

readXml

Sets the setting’s state from a DOM document, where element is the DOM node corresponding to a ‘LayoutMap’ tag.

receivers

sender

senderSignalIndex

setEnabled

Sets whether the map content should be clipped to the associated item.

setFeatureClippingType

Sets the feature clipping type to apply when clipping to the associated item.

setForceLabelsInsideClipPath

Sets whether labels should only be placed inside the clip path geometry.

setSourceItem

Sets the source item which will provide the clipping path for the map.

sourceItem

Returns the source item which will provide the clipping path for the map, or None if no item is set.

timerEvent

toMapClippingRegion

Returns the clip path as a map clipping region.

writeXml

Stores settings in a DOM element, where element is the DOM element corresponding to a ‘LayoutMap’ tag.

Signals

changed

Emitted when the item clipping settings are changed.

changed

Emitted when the item clipping settings are changed. [signal]

childEvent(self, QChildEvent)
clipPathInMapItemCoordinates(self)QgsGeometry

Returns the clipping path geometry, in the map item’s coordinate space.

Warning

The return path is not in geographic coordinates, rather the map layout item’s QGraphicsItem coordinate space. Use clippedMapExtent() to retrieve the clip path in the map’s CRS.

Return type

QgsGeometry

clippedMapExtent(self)QgsGeometry

Returns the geometry to use for clipping the parent map, in the map item’s CRS.

Return type

QgsGeometry

connectNotify(self, QMetaMethod)
customEvent(self, QEvent)
disconnectNotify(self, QMetaMethod)
enabled(self)bool

Returns True if the map content should be clipped to the associated item.

Returns the feature clipping type to apply when clipping to the associated item.

Return type

QgsMapClippingRegion.FeatureClippingType

finalizeRestoreFromXml(self)

To be called after all pending items have been restored from XML.
