layout (QgsLayout) –

Return type

QgsLayoutItem

createMultiFrame(self, type: int, layout: QgsLayout) → QgsLayoutMultiFrame ¶

isSignalConnected(self, QMetaMethod) → bool¶

itemMetadata(self, type: int) → QgsLayoutItemAbstractMetadata ¶

Returns the metadata for the specified item type. Returns None if a corresponding type was not found in the registry.

Parameters: type (int) –
Return type: QgsLayoutItemAbstractMetadata

itemTypes(self) → Dict[int, str]¶

Returns a map of available item types to translated name.

Return type: Dict[int, str]

multiFrameTypeAdded¶

Emitted whenever a new multiframe type is added to the registry, with the specified type and visible name. [signal]

Parameters

type (int) –
name (str) –

populate(self) → bool¶

Populates the registry with standard item types. If called on a non-empty registry then this will have no effect and will return False.
