Detailed Description

A 2-D plotting widget.

QwtPlot is a widget for plotting two-dimensional graphs. An unlimited number of plot items can be displayed on its canvas. Plot items might be curves (QwtPlotCurve), markers (QwtPlotMarker), the grid (QwtPlotGrid), or anything else derived from QwtPlotItem. A plot can have up to four axes, with each plot item attached to an x- and a y axis. The scales at the axes can be explicitely set (QwtScaleDiv), or are calculated from the plot items, using algorithms (QwtScaleEngine) which can be configured separately for each axis.

Example.RS 4 The following example shows (schematically) the most simple way to use QwtPlot. By default, only the left and bottom axes are visible and their scales are computed automatically.

 
 #include <qwt_plot.h>
 #include <qwt_plot_curve.h>
 
 QwtPlot *myPlot = new QwtPlot("Two Curves", parent);
 
 // add curves
 QwtPlotCurve *curve1 = new QwtPlotCurve("Curve 1");
 QwtPlotCurve *curve2 = new QwtPlotCurve("Curve 2");
 
 // copy the data into the curves
 curve1->setData(...);
 curve2->setData(...);
 
 curve1->attach(myPlot);
 curve2->attach(myPlot);
 
 // finally, refresh the plot
 myPlot->replot();
 
 

 

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtPlot::AxisAxis index

*

yLeft

*

yRight

*

xBottom

*

xTop

 

enum QwtPlot::LegendPositionPosition of the legend, relative to the canvas.

*

LeftLegend

 The legend will be left from the yLeft axis.

*

RightLegend

 The legend will be right from the yLeft axis.

*

BottomLegend

 The legend will be right below the xBottom axis.

*

TopLegend

 The legend will be between xTop axis and the title.

*

ExternalLegend

 External means that only the content of the legend will be handled by QwtPlot, but not its geometry. This might be interesting if an application wants to have a legend in an external window ( or on the canvas ).

Note:

In case of ExternalLegend, the legend is not printed by print().

If pos != QwtPlot::ExternalLegend the plot widget will become parent of the legend. It will be deleted when the plot is deleted, or another legend is set with insertLegend().

Parameters:

legend Legend
pos The legend's position. For top/left position the number of colums will be limited to 1, otherwise it will be set to unlimited.
ratio Ratio between legend and the bounding rect of title, canvas and axes. The legend will be shrinked if it would need more space than the given ratio. The ratio is limited to ]0.0 .. 1.0]. In case of <= 0.0 it will be reset to the default ratio. The default vertical/horizontal ratio is 0.33/0.5.
