This new setting, located in the layout item "Rendering" section,
allows users to set an optional "group name" for use in GeoPDF
exports. When set, a matching layer tree group will be created
in the exported GeoPDF and the item will only be visible when
this group is checked.
This allows content to be selectively displayed as a group by
viewers of the GeoPDF. Eg, it can allow extra layout content
such as descriptive labels or legends to only be shown when
layers from the group are visible, making GeoPDF export much
more flexible.
This is a new opt-in flag for map settings/render context/layouts.
If set, then when applying clipping paths for selective masking,
we always use global ("entire map") paths, instead of calculating
local clipping paths per rendered feature. This results in
considerably more complex vector exports in all current Qt versions,
but gives us a way to force this IF/when a future Qt version adds
optimisations which make global masks desirable.
And API mechanism to propagate these from layout exports down
to the render context
Gives us a place to specify fine-tuned control over masking
settings for map renders
Similar to the existing setting for temporal filtering of 2d layout
maps, this setting allows users to set a specific elevation/z range
for a layout map item. When set, map layers with support for 2d
z range filtering (currently point clouds and raster DEMs) will
be filtered to show only content within this range.
The z range can be data-defined, allowing differing z range
for different atlas or report features.
The original workaround was only supposed to apply to QList/
QVector of QVariantMaps. By replacing them all in sip we
break mapping of signals defined in c++ which are emitted
by Python code.
Fixes exceptions after running processing algorithms in Qt6
builds.
