NAME

QwtScaleEngine -

SYNOPSIS


Inherited by QwtLinearScaleEngine, and QwtLog10ScaleEngine.

Detailed Description

Base class for scale engines.

A scale engine trys to find 'reasonable' ranges and step sizes for scales.

The layout of the scale can be varied with setAttribute().

Qwt offers implementations for logarithmic (log10) and linear scales. Contributions for other types of scale engines (date/time, log2 ... ) are welcome.

Member Function Documentation

void QwtScaleEngine::setAttribute (Attribute attribute, bool on = true)

Change a scale attribute

Parameters:

attribute Attribute to change
on On/Off

The behaviour of the scale engine can be changed with the following attributes:

QwtScaleEngine::IncludeReference
Build a scale which includes the reference value.
QwtScaleEngine::Symmetric
Build a scale which is symmetric to the reference value.
QwtScaleEngine::Floating
The endpoints of the scale are supposed to be equal the outmost included values plus the specified margins (see setMargins()). If this attribute is not* set, the endpoints of the scale will be integer multiples of the step size.
QwtScaleEngine::Inverted
Turn the scale upside down.

bool QwtScaleEngine::testAttribute (Attribute attribute) const

Check if a attribute is set.

Parameters:

attribute Attribute to be tested

See also:

QwtScaleEngine::setAttribute() for a description of the possible options.

void QwtScaleEngine::setAttributes (int attributes)

Change the scale attribute

Parameters:

attributes Set scale attributes

Referenced by QwtLog10ScaleEngine::divideScale().

int QwtScaleEngine::attributes () const

Return the scale attributes

Referenced by QwtLog10ScaleEngine::divideScale().

void QwtScaleEngine::setReference (double r)

Specify a reference point.

Parameters:

r new reference value

The reference point is needed if options IncludeRef or Symmetric are active. Its default value is 0.0.

void QwtScaleEngine::setMargins (double mlo, double mhi)

Specify margins at the scale's endpoints.

Parameters:

mlo minimum distance between the scale's lower boundary and the smallest enclosed value
mhi minimum distance between the scale's upper boundary and the greatest enclosed value

Margins can be used to leave a minimum amount of space between the enclosed intervals and the boundaries of the scale.

Warning:

QwtLog10ScaleEngine measures the margins in decades.

virtual void QwtScaleEngine::autoScale (int maxNumSteps, double & x1, double & x2, double & stepSize) const [pure virtual]

Align and divide an interval

Parameters:

maxNumSteps Max. number of steps
x1 First limit of the interval (In/Out)
x2 Second limit of the interval (In/Out)
stepSize Step size (Return value)

Implemented in QwtLinearScaleEngine, and QwtLog10ScaleEngine.

virtual QwtScaleDiv QwtScaleEngine::divideScale (double x1, double x2, int maxMajSteps, int maxMinSteps, double stepSize = 0.0) const [pure virtual]

Calculate a scale division.

Parameters:
