Detailed Description

A class representing a text.

A QwtText is a text including a set of attributes how to render it.

*
Format

 A text might include control sequences (f.e tags) describing how to render it. Each format (f.e MathML, TeX, Qt Rich Text) has its own set of control sequences, that can be handles by a QwtTextEngine for this format.
*
Background

 A text might have a background, defined by a QPen and QBrush to improve its visibility.
*
Font

 A text might have an individual font.
*
Color

 A text might have an individual color.
*
Render Flags

 Flags from Qt::AlignmentFlag and Qt::TextFlag used like in QPainter::drawText.

QwtTextEngine, QwtTextLabel

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtText::LayoutAttribute

Layout Attributes. The layout attributes affects some aspects of the layout of the text.

*
MinimumLayout

 Layout the text without its margins. This mode is useful if a text needs to be aligned accurately, like the tick labels of a scale. If QwtTextEngine::textMargins is not implemented for the format of the text, MinimumLayout has no effect. 

enum QwtText::PaintAttribute

Paint Attributes. Font and color and background are optional attributes of a QwtText. The paint attributes hold the information, if they are set.

*
PaintUsingTextFont

 The text has an individual font.
*
PaintUsingTextColor

 The text has an individual color.
*
PaintBackground

 The text has an individual background. 

enum QwtText::TextFormat

Text format. The text format defines the QwtTextEngine, that is used to render the text.

*
AutoText

 The text format is determined using QwtTextEngine::mightRender for all available text engines in increasing order > PlainText. If none of the text engines can render the text is rendered like PlainText.
*
PlainText

 Draw the text as it is, using a QwtPlainTextEngine.
*
RichText

 Use the Scribe framework (Qt Rich Text) to render the text.
*
MathMLText

 Use a MathML (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MathML) render engine to display the text. The Qwt MathML extension offers such an engine based on the MathML renderer of the Qt solutions package. Unfortunately it is only available for owners of a commercial Qt license.
*
TeXText

 Use a TeX (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TeX) render engine to display the text.
*
OtherFormat

 The number of text formats can be extended using setTextEngine. Formats >= OtherFormat are not used by Qwt.

Parameters:

painter Painter
rect Rectangle

QFont QwtText::font () const

Return the font.

int QwtText::heightForWidth (int width, const QFont & defaultFont = QFont()) constFind the height for a given width

Parameters:

defaultFont Font, used for the calculation if the text has no font
width Width

Returns:

Calculated height

bool QwtText::isEmpty () const [inline]Returns:

text().isEmpty()

bool QwtText::isNull () const [inline]Returns:

text().isNull()

int QwtText::operator!= (const QwtText & other) const

int QwtText::renderFlags () constReturns:

Render flags

See also:

setRenderFlags()

void QwtText::setBackgroundBrush (const QBrush & brush)Set the background brush

Parameters:

brush Background brush

See also:

backgroundBrush(), setBackgroundPen()

void QwtText::setBackgroundPen (const QPen & pen)Set the background pen

Parameters:

pen Background pen

See also:

backgroundPen(), setBackgroundBrush()

void QwtText::setColor (const QColor & color)Set the pen color used for painting the text.

Parameters:

color Color

Note:

Setting the color might have no effect, when the text contains control sequences for setting colors.

void QwtText::setFont (const QFont & font)Set the font.

Parameters:

font Font

Note:

Setting the font might have no effect, when the text contains control sequences for setting fonts.

void QwtText::setLayoutAttribute (LayoutAttribute attribute, bool on = true)Change a layout attribute

Parameters:

attribute Layout attribute
on On/Off

See also:

testLayoutAttribute()

void QwtText::setPaintAttribute (PaintAttribute attribute, bool on = true)Change a paint attribute

void QwtText::setTextEngine (QwtText::TextFormat format, QwtTextEngine * engine) [static]Assign/Replace a text engine for a text format

With setTextEngine it is possible to extend Qwt with other types of text formats.

Owner of a commercial Qt license can build the qwtmathml library, that is based on the MathML renderer, that is included in MML Widget component of the Qt solutions package.

For QwtText::PlainText it is not allowed to assign a engine == NULL.

Parameters:

format Text format
engine Text engine

See also:

QwtMathMLTextEngine

Warning:

Using QwtText::AutoText does nothing.

bool QwtText::testLayoutAttribute (LayoutAttribute attribute) constTest a layout attribute

Parameters:

attribute Layout attribute

Returns:

true, if attribute is enabled

See also:

setLayoutAttribute()

bool QwtText::testPaintAttribute (PaintAttribute attribute) constTest a paint attribute

attribute Paint attribute

true, if attribute is enabled

See also:

setPaintAttribute()

QString QwtText::text () constReturn the text.

See also:

setText()

const QwtTextEngine * QwtText::textEngine (QwtText::TextFormat format) [static]

Find the text engine for a text format. textEngine can be used to find out if a text format is supported. F.e, if one wants to use MathML labels, the MathML renderer from the commercial Qt solutions package might be required, that is not available in Qt Open Source Edition environments.

Parameters:

format Text format

Returns:

The text engine, or NULL if no engine is available.

const QwtTextEngine * QwtText::textEngine (const QString & text, QwtText::TextFormat format = AutoText) [static]Find the text engine for a text format

In case of QwtText::AutoText the first text engine (beside QwtPlainTextEngine) is returned, where QwtTextEngine::mightRender returns true. If there is none QwtPlainTextEngine is returnd.

If no text engine is registered for the format QwtPlainTextEngine is returnd.

Parameters:

text Text, needed in case of AutoText
format Text format

QSize QwtText::textSize (const QFont & defaultFont = QFont()) constFind the height for a given width

Parameters:

defaultFont Font, used for the calculation if the text has no font

Returns:

Calculated height

Returns the size, that is needed to render text

Parameters:

defaultFont Font of the text

Returns:

Caluclated size

QColor QwtText::usedColor (const QColor & defaultColor) constReturn the color of the text, if it has one. Otherwise return defaultColor.

Parameters:

defaultColor Default color

See also:

setColor(), color(), PaintAttributes

QFont QwtText::usedFont (const QFont & defaultFont) constReturn the font of the text, if it has one. Otherwise return defaultFont.

Parameters:

defaultFont Default font
