signal plotAboutToBeRemoved[source]

pyqtSignal(*types, name: str = …, revision: int = …, arguments: Sequence = …) -> PYQT_SIGNAL

types is normally a sequence of individual types. Each type is either a type object or a string that is the name of a C++ type. Alternatively each type could itself be a sequence of types each describing a different overloaded signal. name is the optional C++ name of the signal. If it is not specified then the name of the class attribute that is bound to the signal is used. revision is the optional revision of the signal that is exported to QML. If it is not specified then 0 is used. arguments is the optional sequence of the names of the signal’s arguments.

pyqtSignal(*types, name: str = …, revision: int = …, arguments: Sequence = …) -> PYQT_SIGNAL

types is normally a sequence of individual types. Each type is either a type object or a string that is the name of a C++ type. Alternatively each type could itself be a sequence of types each describing a different overloaded signal. name is the optional C++ name of the signal. If it is not specified then the name of the class attribute that is bound to the signal is used. revision is the optional revision of the signal that is exported to QML. If it is not specified then 0 is used. arguments is the optional sequence of the names of the signal’s arguments.

plotMetadata(self, type: str | None) QgsPlotAbstractMetadata | None[source]

Returns the metadata for the specified plot type. Returns None if a corresponding type was not found in the registry.

Parameters:

type (Optional[str])

Return type:

Optional[QgsPlotAbstractMetadata]

plotTypes(self) Dict[str, str]

Returns a map of available plot types to translated name.

Return type:

Dict[str, str]

populate(self) bool[source]

Populates the registry with standard plot types. If called on a non-empty registry then this will have no effect and will return False.

Return type:

bool

removePlotType(self, type: str | None) bool[source]

Removes a new a plot type from the registry.

Parameters:

type (Optional[str])

Return type:

bool
