The SAGA version of this algorithm is of limited use in QGIS, because the
volume calculated is embedded only in the SAGA terminal output. This prevents
it being saved to a file, or reused within a model as an input to a later
model step.
It's also very user-unfriendly, because users must know to manually scan
the algorithm log to find the SAGA output.
Given that the maths here is trivial, this commit ports the algorithm across
to be a native QGIS c++ algorithm. The algorithm duplicates the SAGA alg
1:1, but outputs the volume (and area) to either a HTML report, or a vector
table. Additionally, the outputs are exported as numeric outputs from the
algorithm, allowing them to be re-used within models.
(It's also considerably faster, because it avoids the forced conversion
to SAGA raster format)
Fixes#8607 (properly, even though that report is closed)
This feature allows for expressions to be embedded directly inside
legend item text (e.g. group, subgroup and item text). The expressions
are evaluated at render time, with full knowledge of the legend's
expression context (so can utilise variables from the layout/layout item/
etc)
There's no UI for this yet (that will come in 3.8), but expressions are
entered using the standard [% 1 + 2 %] format.
E.g. a legend item text of
My layer (rendered at 1:[% @map_scale %])
will show in the output as
My layer (renderer at 1:1000)
Adds new variables for use in data defined expressions for layout legend items, including
- @legend_title
- @legend_column_count
- @legend_split_layers
- @legend_wrap_string
- @legend_filter_by_map
- @legend_filter_out_atlas
Additionally, if the legend is linked to a map, then expressions used in that legend will also have access to the linked variables, including @map_scale, @map_extent, etc.
has been linked to a project color
Instead of only showing linked color status in the accompanying
data defined button, we now also show it inside the color button
itself. So now the button color is a live reflection of the
project color it is linked to.
Additionally, when the color is linked, the button only allows
users the choice of "unlinking" the color from the linked
project color. The usual color button options allowing users
to directly change the color are not present. (As linked
colors must be edited in the project colors section from
the project properties dialog)
This allows optional creation of geodesic lines, which represent the
shortest distance between the points based on the ellipsoid.
When geodesic mode is used, it is possible to split the created lines
at the antimeridian (±180 degrees longitude), which can improve
rendering of the lines. Additionally, the distance between vertices
can be specified. A smaller distance results in a denser, more accurate
line.
Similarly to raster calculator, mesh calculator can take dataset groups from current mesh layer and
combine them with various aritmentic/logical operators to new dataset group.
Ports the similar algorithm from the shape tools plugin to c++, and utilises
built in QgsDistanceArea ellipsoidal calculations to split the lines.
This algorithm splits a line into multiple geodesic segments, whenever the
line crosses the antimeridian (±180 degrees longitude)
Splitting at the antimeridian helps the visual display of the lines in some
projections. The returned geometry will always be a multi-part geometry.
Whenever line segments in the input geometry cross the antimeridian,
they will be split into two segments, with the latitude of the breakpoint
being determined using a geodesic line connecting the points either side
of this segment. The current project ellipsoid setting will be used when
calculating this breakpoint.
If the input geometry contains M or Z values, these will be linearly
interpolated for the new vertices created at the antimeridian.
Supports in-place edit mode also.

This adds a new "Project Colors" section in data defined buttons
which are linked to a color value. The color menu contains all
colors defined as part of the current project's Project Color
Scheme (which is defined through project properties).
When a project color is selected from the button, the property
becomes linked to that color. It will automatically follow any
future changes to the color when made through project properties.
This allows users to define common colors for a project once,
and then "bind" symbol, label, layout, etc colors to these
preset colors. The link is live, so you change it once, and
the change is reflected EVERYWHERE. Sure beats updating a color
100 times when it's use has been scattered throughout a project's
symbols, labels, etc...
(Basically, this is just adding a shortcut to setting a data
defined expression "project_color(...)" for the property. The
project_color function has been around a LOOONG time, but it's
only really been usable by power users before this change)

- raise TypeError when these methods are called with incompatible
geometry types, instead of silently returning empty lists
