Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ Flag

enum QgsLayoutRenderContext::Flag

Flags for controlling how a layout is rendered.

Enumerator
FlagDebug	Debug/testing mode, items are drawn as solid rectangles.
FlagOutlineOnly	Render items as outlines only.
FlagAntialiasing	Use antialiasing when drawing items.
FlagUseAdvancedEffects	Enable advanced effects such as blend modes.
FlagForceVectorOutput	Force output in vector format where possible, even if items require rasterization to keep their correct appearance.
FlagHideCoverageLayer	Hide coverage layer in outputs.
FlagDrawSelection	Draw selection.
FlagDisableTiledRasterLayerRenders	If set, then raster layers will not be drawn as separate tiles. This may improve the appearance in exported files, at the cost of much higher memory usage during exports.
FlagRenderLabelsByMapLayer	When rendering map items to multi-layered exports, render labels belonging to different layers into separate export layers.
FlagLosslessImageRendering	Render images losslessly whenever possible, instead of the default lossy jpeg rendering used for some destination devices (e.g. PDF).
FlagSynchronousLegendGraphics	Query legend graphics synchronously.
FlagAlwaysUseGlobalMasks	When applying clipping paths for selective masking, always use global ("entire map") paths, instead of calculating local clipping paths per rendered feature. This results in considerably more complex layout exports in all current Qt versions. This flag only applies to vector layout exports. Since QGIS 3.38
