5. Substitutions

5.1. Usage

To ease the use of icons in QGIS manuals, replacements are defined for each icon in /source/substitutions.txt file at QGIS-Documentation repository and some of these substitutions are listed below. Thus, when you want to use an icon from QGIS application in the documentation there is a big chance that there is already a substitution that can/should be used.

If no replacement exists:

  1. check the documentation repository whether the icon is available in /static/common folder. If no image, then you need to find and copy the icon image file from QGIS repository (often under default themes folder) and paste (in .png format) under /static/common folder. For convenience and update, it's advised to keep filename when possible.

  2. create the reference to the substitution in the /substitutions.txt file following the example below. The replacement text should be derived from file name and in camelCase:

    .. |dataSourceManager| image:: /static/common/mActionDataSourceManager.png
       :width: 1.5em
    .. |splitLayer| image:: /static/common/split_layer.png
       :width: 1.5em
    
  3. Update the target section(s) of the docs, using your new substitution.

  4. (optional but highly desirable) add the substitution to the list below.

  5. Add the new substitution reference in the substitutions list at the end of the file(s) it is used in, or run the convenient scripts/find_set_subst.py script.

    # from the repository main folder
    python3 scripts/find_set_subst.py
    

5.2. Common Substitutions
