Detailed Description

Provides a method of storing points, consisting of an x and y coordinate, for use in QGIS layouts.

Measurement units are stored alongside the position.

QgsLayoutMeasurementConverter

Note

This class does not inherit from QPointF since QPointF includes methods which should not apply to positions with units. For instance, the + and - operators would mislead users of this class to believe that addition of two QgsLayoutPoints with different unit types would automatically convert units. Instead, all unit conversion must be handled by a QgsLayoutMeasurementConverter so that conversion between paper and screen units can be correctly performed.
