UIGraphicsItem

class pyqtgraph.UIGraphicsItem(bounds=None, parent=None)

Base class for graphics items with boundaries relative to a GraphicsView or ViewBox. The purpose of this class is to allow the creation of GraphicsItems which live inside a scalable view, but whose boundaries will always stay fixed relative to the view’s boundaries. For example: GridItem, InfiniteLine

The view can be specified on initialization or it can be automatically detected when the item is painted.

NOTE: Only the item’s boundingRect is affected; the item is not transformed in any way. Use viewRangeChanged to respond to changes in the view.

__init__(bounds=None, parent=None)

Arguments:
bounds	QRectF with coordinates relative to view box. The default is QRectF(0,0,1,1), which means the item will have the same bounds as the view.

dataBounds(axis, frac=1.0, orthoRange=None)

Called by ViewBox for determining the auto-range bounds. By default, UIGraphicsItems are excluded from autoRange.

mouseShape()

Return the shape of this item after expanding by 2 pixels

setNewBounds()

Update the item’s bounding rect to match the viewport

viewRangeChanged()

Called when the view widget/viewbox is resized/rescaled
