Detailed Description

An alternative canvas for a QwtPlot derived from QOpenGLWidget.

Even if QwtPlotOpenGLCanvas is not derived from QFrame it imitates its API. When using style sheets it supports the box model - beside backgrounds with rounded borders.

QwtPlot::setCanvas(), QwtPlotCanvas, QwtPlotCanvas::OpenGLBuffer
Note
Another way for getting hardware accelerated graphics is using an OpenGL offscreen buffer ( QwtPlotCanvas::OpenGLBuffer ) with QwtPlotCanvas. Performance is worse, than rendering straight to a QOpenGLWidget, but is usually better integrated into a desktop application.

◆ event()

bool QwtPlotOpenGLCanvas::event ( QEvent *  event)
overridevirtual

Qt event handler for QEvent::PolishRequest and QEvent::StyleChange

Parameters
eventQt Event
Returns
See QGLWidget::event()

◆ paintEvent()

void QwtPlotOpenGLCanvas::paintEvent ( QPaintEvent *  event)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Paint event

Parameters
eventPaint event
