23.1.1.2. Create categorized renderer from styles

Sets a vector layer's renderer to a categorized renderer using matching symbols from a style database. If no style file is specified, symbols from the user's current symbol library are used instead.

A specified expression or field is used to create categories for the renderer. Each category is individually matched to the symbols which exist within the specified QGIS XML style database. Whenever a matching symbol name is found, the category's symbol will be set to this matched symbol.

If desired, outputs can also be tables containing lists of the categories which could not be matched to symbols, and symbols which were not matched to categories.

23.1.1.3. Create style database from project

Extracts all style objects (symbols, color ramps, text formats and label settings) from a QGIS project.

The extracted symbols are saved to a QGIS style database (XML format), which can be managed and imported via the Style Manager dialog.

23.1.1.4. Print layout map extent to layer

Creates a polygon layer containing the extent of a print layout map item (or items), with attributes specifying the map size (in layout units, i.e. the reference map units), scale and rotation.

If the map item parameter is specified, then only the matching map extent will be exported. If it is not specified, all map extents from the layout will be exported.

Optionally, a specific output CRS can be specified. If it is not specified, the original map item CRS will be used.

Label	名称	Type	Description
Print layout	LAYOUT	[enumeration]	A print layout in the current project
Map item Optional	MAP	[enumeration] Default: All the map items	The map item(s) whose information you want to extract. If none is provided then all the map items are processed.
Overrride CRS Optional	CRS	[crs] Default: The layout CRS	Select the CRS for the layer in which the information will be reported.

23.1.1.5. Topological coloring

Assigns a color index to polygon features in such a way that no adjacent polygons share the same color index, whilst minimizing the number of colors required.

The algorithm allows choice of method to use when assigning colors.

A minimum number of colors can be specified if desired. The color index is saved to a new attribute named color_id.

The following example shows the algorithm with four different colors chosen; as you can see each color class has the same amount of features.

23.1.1.5.1. Parameters

Label	名称	Type	Description
Input layer	INPUT	[vector: polygon]	The input polygon layer
Minimum number of colors	MIN_COLORS	[number] Default: 4	The minimum number of colors to assign. Minimum 1, maximum 1000.
Minimum distance between features	MIN_DISTANCE	[number] Default: 0.0	Prevent nearby (but non-touching) features from being assigned equal colors. Minimum 0.0.
Balance color assignment	BALANCE	[enumeration] Default: 0	Options are: 0 --- By feature count Attempts to assign colors so that the count of features assigned to each individual color index is balanced. 1 --- By assigned area Assigns colors so that the total area of features assigned to each color is balanced. This mode can be useful to help avoid large features resulting in one of the colors appearing more dominant on a colored map. 2 --- By distance between colors Assigns colors in order to maximize the distance between features of the same color. This mode helps to create a more uniform distribution of colors across a map.
Colored	OUTPUT	[vector: polygon] Default: [Create temporary layer]	Specify the output layer. One of: Create Temporary Layer (TEMPORARY_OUTPUT) Save to File... Save to Geopackage... Save to PostGIS Table... The file encoding can also be changed here.
