This commit add the getLegendGraphic pixmap as legend in the QgsLegend. Due to architectural QgsLegend limitation pixmap is shown of the same dimension of every single legend element (too little) managing of getLegendGraphic popup and refresh - Developed with funding from Regione Toscana-SITA Due the fact that WMS pixmap is too little, has been added a popup to show WMS legend in the original size Has been added feature to refresh getLegendGraphics to every scale change due to extend modification. In this way getLagendGraphic can be updated basing on scale and in the future also basing on viewport. Modified QPixmap to QImage to be device independent set absolute position due to popup is not referred to legendInterface (avoid hiding of the legend)
README for QGIS
----------------------------------------
QGIS is an Open Source Geographic Information System. The project was born in
May of 2002 and was established as a project on SourceForge in June of the same
year. We've worked hard to make GIS software (which is traditionally expensive
commercial software) a viable prospect for anyone with basic access to a
Personal Computer. QGIS currently runs on most Unix platforms, Windows, and OS
X. QGIS is developed using the Qt toolkit (http://qt.digia.com) and C++. This
means that QGIS feels snappy to use and has a pleasing, easy to use graphical
user interface.
QGIS aims to be an easy to use GIS, providing common functions and
features. The initial goal was to provide a GIS data viewer. QGIS has
reached that point in its evolution and is being used by many for their
daily GIS data viewing and editing needs. QGIS supports a number of raster
and vector data formats, with new support easily added using the plugin
architecture.
QGIS is released under the GNU Public License (GPL) Version 2. Developing
QGIS under this license means that you can (if you want to) inspect and
modify the source code and guarantees that you, our happy user will always
have access to a GIS program that is free of cost and can be freely
modified.
Supported raster formats include:
Grass
USGS DEM
ArcInfo binary grid
ArcInfo ASCII grid
ERDAS Imagine
SDTS
GeoTiff
Tiff with world file
Supported vector formats include:
ESRI Shapefiles
PostgreSQL/PostGIS
GRASS
Spatialite
Other OGR supported formats
