Class: QgsMapToolCaptureLayerGeometry¶

Base class for map tools digitizing layer geometries.

This map tool subclass automatically handles intersection avoidance with other layers in the active project whenever a geometry is digitized by the user.

Added in version 3.26.

Class Hierarchy¶

Base classes¶

`QgsMapToolCapture`	Base class for map tools capable of capturing point, lines and polygons.
`QgsMapToolAdvancedDigitizing`	A `QgsMapTool` which gives events directly in map coordinates and allows filtering of events.
`QgsMapToolEdit`	Base class for map tools that edit vector geometry.
`QgsMapTool`	Abstract base class for all map tools.
QObject

Subclasses¶

QgsMapToolDigitizeFeature

This tool digitizes geometry of new point/line/polygon features on already existing vector layers.

Virtual Methods

In PyQGIS, only methods marked as virtual can be safely overridden in a Python subclass of QgsMapToolCaptureLayerGeometry. See the FAQ for more details.

`layerGeometryCaptured`	Called when the geometry is captured.
`layerLineCaptured`	Called when a line is captured.
`layerPointCaptured`	Called when a point is captured.
`layerPolygonCaptured`	Called when a polygon is captured.

class qgis.gui.QgsMapToolCaptureLayerGeometry[source]¶

Bases: QgsMapToolCapture

__init__(canvas: QgsMapCanvas | None, cadDockWidget: QgsAdvancedDigitizingDockWidget | None, mode: QgsMapToolCapture.CaptureMode)

Constructor

Parameters:

canvas (Optional[QgsMapCanvas])
cadDockWidget (Optional[QgsAdvancedDigitizingDockWidget])
mode (QgsMapToolCapture.CaptureMode)

virtual layerGeometryCaptured(self, geometry: QgsGeometry)[source]¶

Called when the geometry is captured.

A more specific handler is also called afterwards (layerPointCaptured(), layerLineCaptured() or layerPolygonCaptured()).

Parameters:: geometry (QgsGeometry)

virtual layerLineCaptured(self, line: QgsCurve | None)[source]¶

Called when a line is captured.

The generic layerGeometryCaptured() method will be called immediately before this line-specific method.

Parameters:: line (Optional[QgsCurve])

virtual layerPointCaptured(self, point: QgsPoint)[source]¶

Called when a point is captured.

The generic layerGeometryCaptured() method will be called immediately before this point-specific method.

Parameters:: point (QgsPoint)

virtual layerPolygonCaptured(self, polygon: QgsCurvePolygon | None)[source]¶

Called when a polygon is captured.

The generic layerGeometryCaptured() method will be called immediately before this polygon-specific method.

Parameters:: polygon (Optional[QgsCurvePolygon])
