sizeChanged

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

start(self, position: QPointF | QPoint, modifiers: 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(self, QTimerEvent)
update(self, position: QPointF | QPoint, modifiers: 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: QPointF | QPoint, position: 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.
