Class: QgsColorRampButton

class qgis.gui.QgsColorRampButton

Bases: PyQt5.QtWidgets.QToolButton

A cross platform button subclass for selecting color ramps. Will open color ramp dialogs when clicked. Offers live updates to button from color ramp dialog. An attached drop-down menu allows for access to saved color ramps, as well as option to invert the current color ramp and create new ramps.

QgsColorRampButton(parent: QWidget = None, dialogTitle: str = ‘’) Construct a new color ramp button. Use parent to attach a parent QWidget to the dialog. Use dialogTitle string to define the title to show in the color ramp dialog

colorRampChanged

pyqtSignal(*types, name: str = …, revision: int = …, arguments: Sequence = …) -> PYQT_SIGNAL

types is normally a sequence of individual types. Each type is either a type object or a string that is the name of a C++ type. Alternatively each type could itself be a sequence of types each describing a different overloaded signal. name is the optional C++ name of the signal. If it is not specified then the name of the class attribute that is bound to the signal is used. revision is the optional revision of the signal that is exported to QML. If it is not specified then 0 is used. arguments is the optional sequence of the names of the signal’s arguments.

Parameters:
  • name (str = ...) –

  • revision (int = ...) –

  • arguments (Sequence = ...) –

Return type:

PYQT_SIGNAL

colorRampDialogTitle(self) str

Returns the title for the color ramp dialog window.

Return type:

str

Returns:

title for the color ramp dialog

colorRampName(self) str

Returns the name of the current color ramp when it’s available in the style manager

Return type:

str

connectNotify(self, QMetaMethod)
context(self) str

Returns the context string for the color ramp button. The context string is passed to all color ramp preview icons shown in the button’s drop-down menu, to (eventually) allow them to customize their display colors based on the context.

Return type:

str

Returns:

context context string for the color dialog button’s color ramp preview icons
