Detailed Description
A transformation between coordinate systems.
QwtTransform manipulates values, when being mapped between the scale and the paint device coordinate system.
A transformation consists of 2 methods:
- transform
- invTransform
where one is is the inverse function of the other.
When p1, p2 are the boundaries of the paint device coordinates and s1, s2 the boundaries of the scale, QwtScaleMap uses the following calculations:
- p = p1 + ( p2 - p1 ) * ( T( s ) - T( s1 ) / ( T( s2 ) - T( s1 ) );
- s = invT ( T( s1 ) + ( T( s2 ) - T( s1 ) ) * ( p - p1 ) / ( p2 - p1 ) );
Member Function Documentation
double QwtTransform::bounded (doublevalue) const [virtual]
Modify value to be a valid value for the transformation. The default implementation does nothing.Parameters:
- value Value to be bounded
Returns:
- value unmodified
Reimplemented in QwtLogTransform.
virtual double QwtTransform::invTransform (doublevalue) const [pure virtual]
Inverse transformation functionParameters:
- value Value
Returns:
- Modified value
See Also:
- transform()
Implemented in QwtPowerTransform, QwtLogTransform, and QwtNullTransform.
virtual double QwtTransform::transform (doublevalue) const [pure virtual]
Transformation functionParameters:
- value Value
Returns:
- Modified value
See Also:
- invTransform()
Implemented in QwtPowerTransform, QwtLogTransform, and QwtNullTransform.
