class qgis.core.QgsRectangle

Bases: sip.wrapper

QgsRectangle(xMin: float, yMin: float = 0, xMax: float = 0, yMax: float = 0) Constructor

QgsRectangle(p1: QgsPointXY, p2: QgsPointXY) Construct a rectangle from two points. The rectangle is normalized after construction.

QgsRectangle(qRectF: QRectF) Construct a rectangle from a QRectF. The rectangle is normalized after construction.

QgsRectangle(other: QgsRectangle) Copy constructor

A rectangle specified with double values.

QgsRectangle is used to store a rectangle when double values are required. Examples are storing a layer extent or the current view extent of a map

center(self) → QgsPointXY

Returns the center point of the rectangle.

combineExtentWith(self, rect: QgsRectangle)

Expands the rectangle so that it covers both the original rectangle and the given rectangle.

combineExtentWith(self, x: float, y: float) Expands the rectangle so that it covers both the original rectangle and the given point.

combineExtentWith(self, point: QgsPointXY) Expands the rectangle so that it covers both the original rectangle and the given point.

New in version 3.2.

contains(self, rect: QgsRectangle) → bool

Returns true when rectangle contains other rectangle.

contains(self, p: QgsPointXY) -> bool Returns true when rectangle contains a point.

fromCenterAndSize(center: QgsPointXY, width: float, height: float) → QgsRectangle

Creates a new rectangle, given the specified center point and width and height.

New in version 3.0.

fromWkt(wkt: str) → QgsRectangle

Creates a new rectangle from a wkt string. The WKT must contain only 5 vertices, representing a rectangle aligned with X and Y axes.

grow(self, delta: float)

Grows the rectangle in place by the specified amount.

height(self) → float

Returns the height of the rectangle.

include(self, p: QgsPointXY)

Updates the rectangle to include the specified point.

intersect(self, rect: QgsRectangle) → QgsRectangle

Returns the intersection with the given rectangle.

intersects(self, rect: QgsRectangle) → bool

Returns true when rectangle intersects with other rectangle.

invert(self)

Swap x/y coordinates in the rectangle.

isEmpty(self) → bool

Returns true if the rectangle is empty. An empty rectangle may still be non-null if it contains valid information (e.g. bounding box of a point).

isFinite(self) → bool

Returns true if the rectangle has finite boundaries. Will return false if any of the rectangle boundaries are NaN or Inf.

isNull(self) → bool

Test if the rectangle is null (all coordinates zero or after call to setMinimal()). A null rectangle is also an empty rectangle.

New in version 2.4.

normalize(self)

Normalize the rectangle so it has non-negative width/height.

perimeter(self) → float

Returns the perimeter of the rectangle.
