Detailed Description

QwtLinearColorMap builds a color map from color stops.

A color stop is a color at a specific position. The valid range for the positions is [0.0, 1.0]. When mapping a value into a color it is translated into this interval. If mode() == FixedColors the color is calculated from the next lower color stop. If mode() == ScaledColors the color is calculated by interpolating the colors of the adjacent stops.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtColorMap::Format [inherited].IP • 2

RGB

 The map is intended to map into QRgb values.
  • Indexed

     The map is intended to map into 8 bit values, that are indices into the color table.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QwtLinearColorMap::QwtLinearColorMap (QwtColorMap::Formatformat = QwtColorMap::RGB)Build a color map with two stops at 0.0 and 1.0. The color at 0.0 is Qt::blue, at 1.0 it is Qt::yellow.

Parameters:

format Preferred format of the color map

QwtLinearColorMap::QwtLinearColorMap (const QColor &color1, const QColor &color2, QwtColorMap::Formatformat = QwtColorMap::RGB)Build a color map with two stops at 0.0 and 1.0.

Parameters:

color1 Color used for the minimum value of the value interval
color2 Color used for the maximum value of the value interval
format Preferred format of the coor map

QwtLinearColorMap::QwtLinearColorMap (const QwtLinearColorMap &other)

Copy constructor.

QwtLinearColorMap::~QwtLinearColorMap () [virtual]

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

void QwtLinearColorMap::addColorStop (doublevalue, const QColor &color)Add a color stop

The value has to be in the range [0.0, 1.0]. F.e. a stop at position 17.0 for a range [10.0,20.0] must be passed as: (17.0 - 10.0) / (20.0 - 10.0)

Parameters:

value Value between [0.0, 1.0]
color Color stop

QColor QwtColorMap::color (const QwtDoubleInterval &interval, doublevalue) const [inline, inherited]Map a value into a color

Parameters:

interval Valid interval for values
value Value

Returns:

Color corresponding to value

Warning:

This method is slow for Indexed color maps. If it is necessary to map many values, its better to get the color table once and find the color using colorIndex().

QColor QwtLinearColorMap::color1 () constReturns:

the first color of the color range

See also:

setColorInterval()

QColor QwtLinearColorMap::color2 () constReturns:

the second color of the color range

See also:

setColorInterval()

unsigned char QwtLinearColorMap::colorIndex (const QwtDoubleInterval &interval, doublevalue) const [virtual]Map a value of a given interval into a color index, between 0 and 255

Parameters:

interval Range for all values
value Value to map into a color index

Implements QwtColorMap.

QwtArray< double > QwtLinearColorMap::colorStops () constReturn all positions of color stops in increasing order

QwtColorTable QwtColorMap::colorTable (const QwtDoubleInterval &interval) const [virtual, inherited]Build and return a color map of 256 colors

The color table is needed for rendering indexed images in combination with using colorIndex().

Parameters:

interval Range for the values

Returns:

A color table, that can be used for a QImage

QwtColorMap * QwtLinearColorMap::copy () const [virtual]

Clone the color map.

Implements QwtColorMap.

QwtColorMap::Format QwtColorMap::format () const [inline, inherited]Returns:

Intended format of the color map

See also:

Format

QwtLinearColorMap::Mode QwtLinearColorMap::mode () constReturns:

Mode of the color map

See also:

setMode()

QwtLinearColorMap & QwtLinearColorMap::operator= (const QwtLinearColorMap &other)

Assignment operator.

QRgb QwtLinearColorMap::rgb (const QwtDoubleInterval &interval, doublevalue) const [virtual]Map a value of a given interval into a rgb value

Parameters:

interval Range for all values
value Value to map into a rgb value

Implements QwtColorMap.

void QwtLinearColorMap::setColorInterval (const QColor &color1, const QColor &color2)Set the color range

Add stops at 0.0 and 1.0.

Parameters:

color1 Color used for the minimum value of the value interval
color2 Color used for the maximum value of the value interval

See also:

color1(), color2()

void QwtLinearColorMap::setMode (Modemode)

Set the mode of the color map. FixedColors means the color is calculated from the next lower color stop. ScaledColors means the color is calculated by interpolating the colors of the adjacent stops.

mode()
