draw shape/arrow/nodes/paper symbols
This commit removes some more instances where changes in the
canvas affect compositions. Previously the symbols drawn
in shape/arrow/etc items were using the scale from the canvas.
This meant that the appearance of these items in composer
would change depending on canvas zoom if they used symbols
with map unit sizes.
Now they take their map scale from the composition's reference
map. While this has the nice side effect that now map units
can be used in the appearance of these items and they're
guaranteed to match up with the reference map item, the main
intention here is to remove more of the forced links between
compositions (core) and the main canvas (app).
This option will be used for more than just world file generation,
and instead will indicate which map should be considered the master
map for the composition from which any composer properties
calculating map units will derive the scale from.
This adds a new item_variables expression function when expressions
are used inside a composition context.
The function takes a single argument, the id for an item inside
the composition, and returns a map of variable name to value
for that item.
This allows you to do things like insert text in a label fetching
properties of another item in the composition, eg
Insert scale of map into a label:
map_get( item_variables( 'map'),'map_scale')
Insert x coordinate of map center into a label:
x(map_get( item_variables( 'map'),'map_extent_center'))
Intended as a registry for the various processing components,
including providers, algorithms and various parameters and outputs.
Currently handles only registration of providers, as a step toward
removing processing's algList (this requires first porting
the algorithm class to c++)
A QgsProcessingRegistry instance is attached to QgsApplication,
and is retrieved by QgsApplication::processingRegistry()
Nothing particularly exciting here yet, but this commit
moves the definition of the provider base class to a c++
QgsProcessingProvider abstract base class.
As part of this some existing python methods were renamed
to make their use clearer and to fit with the QGIS c++
api conventions:
- getName was renamed to id
- getDescription was renamed to name
- getIcon was renamed to icon
These API breaks are documented
spell check will be done automatically in words by default (when some conditions are fulfilled)
possibility to avoid in words checking by adding :* at the end in spelling.dat
one can add #spellok at the end of a line of code to skip spell check on this line

- Checking/unchecking a group doesn't change the check state of its children.
A node is visible if and only if it is checked and all its parents too.
- There is no more a semi-checked state for a group
- Ctrl-clic on a unchecked group will check the group and all its descendants.
- Ctrl-clic on a unchecked layer will check the lager and all its parents.
- Ctrl-clic on a checked group will uncheck the group and all its descendants.
- Ctrl-clic on a checked layer will uncheck the layer and all its parents.
- Those actions are available in contextual menu items in the tree view.
- Invisible layers because they or their parent(s) is unchecked are greyed out.
Adds a new method to QgsVectorDataProvider to truncate the layer.
The base implementation requires DeleteFeatures capability and
is not optimised. Providers can return the FastTruncate capability
and override the base implementation with a provider specific
optimised version. This is done in this commit for the Postgres
and Spatialite providers.
