Parameters

pen (Union[QPen) –

sizeChanged

Emitted when the size of the rubber band is changed. The size argument gives a translated string describing the new rubber band size, with a format which differs per subclass (e.g. rectangles may describe a size using width and height, while circles may describe a size by radius). [signal]

start(self, position: Union[QPointF, QPoint], modifiers: Union[Qt.KeyboardModifiers, Qt.KeyboardModifier])

Called when a rubber band should be created at the specified starting position (in layout coordinate space).

Parameters
  • position (Union[QPointF) –

  • modifiers (Union[Qt.KeyboardModifiers) –

timerEvent()
update(self, position: Union[QPointF, QPoint], modifiers: Union[Qt.KeyboardModifiers, Qt.KeyboardModifier])

Called when a rubber band should be updated to reflect a temporary ending position (in layout coordinate space).

Parameters
  • position (Union[QPointF) –

  • modifiers (Union[Qt.KeyboardModifiers) –

updateRect(self, start: Union[QPointF, QPoint], position: Union[QPointF, QPoint], constrainSquare: bool, fromCenter: bool) → QRectF

Calculates an updated bounding box rectangle from a original start position and new position. If constrainSquare is true then the bounding box will be forced to a square shape. If fromCenter is true then the original start position will form the center point of the returned rectangle.

Parameters
  • start (Union[QPointF) –

  • position (Union[QPointF) –

  • constrainSquare (bool) –

  • fromCenter (bool) –

Return type

QRectF

view(self) → QgsLayoutView

Returns the view associated with the rubber band.
