sourceAsImage()

sourceAsImage(self, context: QgsRenderContext) QImage

Returns the source QPicture rendered to a new QImage. The draw() member can utilize this when drawing the effect. The image will be padded or cropped from the original source QPicture by the results of the boundingRect() method. The result is cached to speed up subsequent calls to sourceAsImage.

Returns

source QPicture rendered to an image
