Class: QgsSensorAbstractGuiMetadata

Stores GUI metadata about one sensor class.

This is a companion to QgsSensorAbstractMetadata, storing only the components related to the GUI behavior of sensor.

Note

In C++ you can use QgsSensorGuiMetadata convenience class.

Added in version 3.32.

Methods

type	Returns the unique type code for the sensor class.
visibleName	Returns a translated, user visible name identifying the corresponding sensor.

Virtual Methods

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

createSensor	Creates an instance of the corresponding sensor type.
createSensorWidget	Creates a configuration widget for an sensor of this type.
creationIcon	Returns an icon representing creation of the sensor type.
