Class: QgsExpressionSelectionDialog

class qgis.gui.QgsExpressionSelectionDialog

Bases: PyQt5.QtWidgets.QDialog

This class offers a dialog to change feature selections. To do so, a QgsExpressionBuilderWidget is shown in a dialog. It offers the possibilities to create a new selection, add to the current selection remove from the current selection or select within the current selection.

QgsExpressionSelectionDialog(layer: Optional[QgsVectorLayer], startText: Optional[str] = ‘’, parent: Optional[QWidget] = None) Creates a new selection dialog.

Parameters:
actionEvent(self, a0: QActionEvent | None)
changeEvent(self, a0: QEvent | None)
childEvent(self, a0: QChildEvent | None)
closeEvent(self, closeEvent: QCloseEvent | None)

Implementation for closeEvent Saves the window geometry

Parameters:

closeEvent (Optional[QCloseEvent]) – Event object. Unused.

connectNotify(self, signal: QMetaMethod)
contextMenuEvent(self, a0: QContextMenuEvent | None)
create(self, window: PyQt5.sip.voidptr = None, initializeWindow: bool = True, destroyOldWindow: bool = True)
customEvent(self, a0: QEvent | None)
destroy(self, destroyWindow: bool = True, destroySubWindows: bool = True)
disconnectNotify(self, signal: QMetaMethod)
done(self, r: int)

Implementation for done (default behavior when pressing esc) Calls close, so the window geometry gets saved and the object deleted.

Parameters:

r (int) – Result value. Unused.

dragEnterEvent(self, a0: QDragEnterEvent | None)
dragLeaveEvent(self, a0: QDragLeaveEvent | None)
dragMoveEvent(self, a0: QDragMoveEvent | None)
dropEvent(self, a0: QDropEvent | None)
enterEvent(self, a0: QEvent | None)
event(self, a0: QEvent | None) bool
eventFilter(self, a0: QObject | None, a1: QEvent | None) bool
expressionBuilder(self) QgsExpressionBuilderWidget | None

Return type:

Optional[QgsExpressionBuilderWidget]

Returns:

The builder widget that is used by the dialog

expressionText(self) str

Returns the current expression text

Return type:

str

Returns:

The expression text
