QgsSipUtils.isPyOwned will return True if an object is owned
by python, or False if ownership is held by another object
or c++ class.
This gives a way to test in advance if we can safely assign
an object to a method which takes ownership (which always results
in a crash).
Deprecate old methods and make methods always take QgsSldExportContext.
Add capacity to QgsSldExportContext to collect export errors and
warnings.
The old API had no way to reliably report errors/warnings during
export to users.
Adds an API which an algorithm can implement to support auto-setting
parameter values. This is designed to handle the case
of eg an algorithm which does a file format translation, where
it's desirable to default the output parameter value to an input
parameter value with a different extension.
This can now be done by implementing autogenerateParameterValues
in the algorithm, eg:
def autogenerateParameterValues(self, existingParameters, changedParameter, mode):
if changedParameter == self.INPUT:
input_file = existingParameters.get(self.INPUT)
if input_file:
input_path = Path(input_file)
if input_path.exists():
# auto set output parameter to same as input but with 'qgs' extension
return {self.OUTPUT: input_path.with_suffix('.qgs').as_posix()}
return {}
Works for both toolbox and batch modes for algorithms
Improves the appearance of labels in situations like road networks,
where things like dual carriageways, service roads, etc can result
in many labels of the exact same text appearing close to each other.
When active, removes any labels with the exact same text (case
sensitive!) which are closer then this minimum distance.
The setting applies across layers, so duplicate text from ANY
layer will be considered.
- Deprecate global geographic crs strings, these should not be used
- Move some global constants to Qgis, and monkey patch for
API compatibility
- Deprecate global qgsVsiPrefix. Use QgsGdalUtils::vsiPrefixForPath()
instead
Adds:
- QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::createGeocentricCrs, which takes
an ellipsoid acronym and builds a matching geocentric CRS
- QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::toGeocentricCrs, which takes
an existing CRS and returns a corresponding geocentric CRS with
the same datum/datum ensemble
Always calculates the scale at the equator, regardless of the
actual visible map extent.
This method can be used to provide a consistent, static scale for
maps in geographic reference systems, regardless of the latitudes
actually visible in the map (permitting consistent appearance of
these maps when rendering relies on scale based visibility or
calculations). Otherwise a project in eg EPSG:4326 which uses
scale based visibility of layers and symbols will see layers
and features "randomly" disappear as the map is panned, even
though the user has not zoomed in or out of the map.
This method is only applicable when calculating scales with a
degree based reference system.
