Methods

maximumScale	Returns the selected maximum scale (i.e. most "zoomed in" scale), or 0 if maximum scale is not set.
minimumScale	Returns the selected minimum scale (i.e. most "zoomed out" scale), or 0 if minimum scale is not set.
reloadProjectScales	Call to reload the preset scales from the current project and apply them to the 2 scales combo boxes.
setMapCanvas	Sets the map canvas which will be used for the current scale buttons.
setMaximumScale	Set the maximum scale (i.e. most "zoomed in" scale), or 0 to indicate the minimum is not set.
setMinimumScale	Set the minimum scale (i.e. most "zoomed out" scale), or 0 to indicate the minimum is not set.
setScaleRange	Sets the scale range, from min scale (i.e. most "zoomed out" scale) to max scale (most "zoomed in" scale).

Signals

rangeChanged

Emitted when the scale range set in the widget is changed.

class qgis.gui.QgsScaleRangeWidget

Bases: QWidget

__init__(parent: QWidget | None = None)

Constructor for QgsScaleRangeWidget.

Parameters:

parent (Optional[QWidget] = None)

maximumScale(self) → float

Returns the selected maximum scale (i.e. most “zoomed in” scale), or 0 if maximum scale is not set. The scale value indicates the scale denominator, e.g. 1000.0 for a 1:1000 map.

setMaximumScale()

Return type:

float

minimumScale(self) → float

Returns the selected minimum scale (i.e. most “zoomed out” scale), or 0 if minimum scale is not set. The scale value indicates the scale denominator, e.g. 1000.0 for a 1:1000 map.

setMinimumScale()

Return type:

float

signal rangeChanged(min: float, max: float)

Emitted when the scale range set in the widget is changed. The scale values indicates the scale denominator, e.g. 1000.0 for a 1:1000 map, or 0 to indicate not set.

Parameters:

• min (float)

• max (float)

reloadProjectScales(self)

Call to reload the preset scales from the current project and apply them to the 2 scales combo boxes.

setMapCanvas(self, canvas: QgsMapCanvas | None)

Sets the map canvas which will be used for the current scale buttons. If not set, the buttons are hidden.

Parameters:

canvas (Optional[QgsMapCanvas])

setMaximumScale(self, scale: float)

Set the maximum scale (i.e. most “zoomed in” scale), or 0 to indicate the minimum is not set. The scale value indicates the scale denominator, e.g. 1000.0 for a 1:1000 map.

Warning

Calling setMinimumScale() places a restriction on the acceptable maximum scale for the widget, and will alter any previously set maximum scale to pass this constraint. Always call setMinimumScale() before setMaximumScale() when restoring a scale range in the widget, or use the convenience method setScaleRange() instead.

Parameters:

scale (float)

setMinimumScale(self, scale: float)

Set the minimum scale (i.e. most “zoomed out” scale), or 0 to indicate the minimum is not set. The scale value indicates the scale denominator, e.g. 1000.0 for a 1:1000 map.

Parameters:

setScaleRange(self, min: float, max: float)

Sets the scale range, from min scale (i.e. most “zoomed out” scale) to max scale (most “zoomed in” scale). The scale values indicates the scale denominator, e.g. 1000.0 for a 1:1000 map, or 0 to indicate not set.
