[QGIS-Developer] flash geometries for (larger) polygons?

2022-07-03 Thread Richard Duivenvoorde via QGIS-Developer

Hi Devs,

We have a geocoder plugin, which is able to return polygons.

Wanting to be able to see what (province/neighourhoud/zip code etc) it is I 
thought to use:

https://qgis.org/pyqgis/master/gui/QgsMapCanvas.html#qgis.gui.QgsMapCanvas.flashGeometries

but that only flashes a full non transparant geometry (polygon in our case).

Looking into the code:

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/gui/qgsmapcanvas.cpp#L1876

it looks like it really is written towards a begin/end color flash, so I think 
adding a 'fill' would not fit.

Any idea's?

Maybe adding transparency is easiest then?

Regards & thanks for any input,

Richard Duivenvoorde

Hi Richard,

what are you trying to achieve?

If you would like to flash only the border of the polygon you could try 
to use


geometry.convertToType(1) 
(https://qgis.org/pyqgis/master/core/QgsGeometry.html#qgis.core.QgsGeometry.convertToType)


to flash only a LineGeometry instead of a polygon.

Cheers,
Bjoern

Ah, that's actually a very good idea too :-)

Thanks!
