Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtScaleEngine::Attribute [inherited].IP • 2

IncludeReference

 Build a scale which includes the reference() value.

• Symmetric
  
   Build a scale which is symmetric to the reference() value.
• 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.
• Inverted
  
   Turn the scale upside down.

Member Function Documentation

QwtDoubleInterval QwtLinearScaleEngine::align (const QwtDoubleInterval &interval, doublestepSize) const [protected]

Align an interval to a step size. The limits of an interval are aligned that both are integer multiples of the step size.

Parameters:

interval Interval
stepSize Step size

Returns:

Aligned interval

int QwtScaleEngine::attributes () const [inherited]Return the scale attributes

See also:

Attribute, setAttributes(), testAttribute()

void QwtLinearScaleEngine::autoScale (intmaxNumSteps, double &x1, double &x2, double &stepSize) const [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 (Out)

See also:

setAttribute()

Implements QwtScaleEngine.

QwtDoubleInterval QwtScaleEngine::buildInterval (doublev) const [protected, inherited]

Build an interval for a value. In case of v == 0.0 the interval is [-0.5, 0.5], otherwide it is [0.5 * v, 1.5 * v]

bool QwtScaleEngine::contains (const QwtDoubleInterval &interval, doublevalue) const [protected, inherited]Check if an interval 'contains' a value

Parameters:

interval Interval
value Value

See also:

QwtScaleArithmetic::compareEps()

double QwtScaleEngine::divideInterval (doubleintervalSize, intnumSteps) const [protected, inherited]Calculate a step size for an interval size

Parameters:

intervalSize Interval size
numSteps Number of steps

Returns:

Step size

QwtScaleDiv QwtLinearScaleEngine::divideScale (doublex1, doublex2, intmaxMajSteps, intmaxMinSteps, doublestepSize = 0.0) const [virtual]

Calculate a scale division. Parameters:

x1 First interval limit
x2 Second interval limit
maxMajSteps Maximum for the number of major steps
maxMinSteps Maximum number of minor steps
stepSize Step size. If stepSize == 0, the scaleEngine calculates one.

See also:

QwtScaleEngine::stepSize(), QwtScaleEngine::subDivide()

Implements QwtScaleEngine.

double QwtScaleEngine::lowerMargin () const [inherited]Returns:

the margin at the lower end of the scale The default margin is 0.

See also:

setMargins()

double QwtScaleEngine::reference () const [inherited]Returns:

the reference value

See also:

setReference(), setAttribute()

void QwtScaleEngine::setAttribute (Attributeattribute, boolon = true) [inherited]Change a scale attribute

Parameters:

attribute Attribute to change
on On/Off

See also:

Attribute, testAttribute()

void QwtScaleEngine::setAttributes (intattributes) [inherited]Change the scale attribute

Parameters:

attributes Set scale attributes

See also:

Attribute, attributes()

void QwtScaleEngine::setMargins (doublelower, doubleupper) [inherited]

Specify margins at the scale's endpoints. Parameters:

lower minimum distance between the scale's lower boundary and the smallest enclosed value
upper 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.

See also:

upperMargin(), lowerMargin()

void QwtScaleEngine::setReference (doubler) [inherited]

Specify a reference point. Parameters:

r new reference value

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

Attribute

QwtValueList QwtScaleEngine::strip (const QwtValueList &ticks, const QwtDoubleInterval &interval) const [protected, inherited]Remove ticks from a list, that are not inside an interval

Parameters:

ticks Tick list
interval Interval

Returns:

Stripped tick list

bool QwtScaleEngine::testAttribute (Attributeattribute) const [inherited]Check if a attribute is set.

Parameters:

attribute Attribute to be tested

See also:

Attribute, setAttribute()

QwtScaleTransformation * QwtLinearScaleEngine::transformation () const [virtual]Return a transformation, for linear scales

Implements QwtScaleEngine.

double QwtScaleEngine::upperMargin () const [inherited]Returns:

the margin at the upper end of the scale The default margin is 0.

setMargins()
