MarbleModel Class Reference

from PyKDE4.marble import *

Inherits: QObject
Namespace: Marble

Detailed Description

The data model (not based on QAbstractModel) for a MarbleWidget.

This class provides a data storage and indexer that can be displayed in a MarbleWidget. It contains 3 different datatypes: tiles which provide the background, vectors which provide things like country borders and coastlines and placemarks which can show points of interest, such as cities, mountain tops or the poles.

The tiles provide the background of the image and can be for instance height and depth fields, magnetic strength, topographic data or anything else that is area based.

The vectors provide things like country borders and coastlines. They are stored in separate files and can be added or removed at anytime.

The placemarks contain points of interest, such as cities, mountain tops or the poles. These are sorted by size (for cities) and category (capitals, other important cities, less important cities, etc) and are displayed with different color or shape like square or round.

Method Documentation

__init__ (  self,
QObject  parent
)

Construct a new MarbleModel.

Parameters:
parent  the parent widget

addGeoDataFile (  self,
QString  filename
)
addGeoDataString (  self,
QString  data,
QString  key="data"
)
addPlacemarkData (  self,
QString  data,
QString  key="data"
)

Deprecated:
Please use addGeoDataString instead

addPlacemarkFile (  self,
QString  filename
)

Deprecated:
Please use addGeoDataFile instead

clearPersistentTileCache (   self )
QDateTime clockDateTime (   self )
int clockSpeed (   self )
int clockTimezone (   self )
home (  self,
float  lon,
float  lat,
int  zoom
)

get the home point

Parameters:
  lon the longitude of the home point.
  lat the latitude of the home point.
  zoom the default zoom level of the home point.

QTextDocument legend (   self )
QString mapThemeId (   self )

Return the name of the current map theme.

Returns:
the identifier of the current MapTheme. To ensure that a unique identifier is being used the theme does NOT get represented by its name but the by relative location of the file that specifies the theme:

Example: maptheme = "earth/bluemarble/bluemarble.dgml"

openGpxFile (  self,
QString  filename
)

Deprecated:
Please use addGeoDataFile instead

long persistentTileCacheLimit (   self )

Returns the limit in kilobytes of the persistent (on hard disc) tile cache.

Returns:
the limit of persistent tile cache in kilobytes.

QAbstractItemModel placemarkModel (   self )
QItemSelectionModel placemarkSelectionModel (   self )
Marble.Planet planet (   self )

Returns the planet object for the current map.

Returns:
the planet object for the current map

QString planetId (   self )
QString planetName (   self )
float planetRadius (   self )
Marble.PositionTracking positionTracking (   self )
removeGeoData (  self,
QString  key
)
removePlacemarkKey (  self,
QString  key
)

Deprecated:
Please use removeGeoData instead

setClockDateTime (  self,
QDateTime  datetime
)
setClockSpeed (  self,
int  speed
)
setClockTimezone (  self,
int  timeInSec
)
setHome (  self,
float  lon,
float  lat,
int  zoom=1050
)

Set the home point

Parameters:
  homePoint the new home point.
  zoom the default zoom level for the new home point.

setHome (  self,
Marble.GeoDataCoordinates  homePoint,
int  zoom=1050
)

Set the home point

Parameters:
  homePoint the new home point.
  zoom the default zoom level for the new home point.

setLegend (  self,
QTextDocument  document
)
setPersistentTileCacheLimit (  self,
long  kiloBytes
)

Set the limit of the persistent (on hard disc) tile cache.

Parameters:
  bytes The limit in kilobytes, 0 means no limit.

Marble.SunLocator sunLocator (   self )
QAbstractItemModel treeModel (   self )

Return the list of Placemarks as a QAbstractItemModel *

Returns:
a list of all Placemarks in the MarbleModel.
