◆ renderDocument() [1/2]

void QwtPlotRenderer::renderDocument ( QwtPlot * plot,
const QString & fileName,
const QSizeF & sizeMM,
int resolution = 85 )

Render a plot to a file

The format of the document will be auto-detected from the suffix of the file name.

Parameters
plotPlot widget
fileNamePath of the file, where the document will be stored
sizeMMSize for the document in millimeters.
resolutionResolution in dots per Inch (dpi)

Definition at line 261 of file qwt_plot_renderer.cpp.

◆ renderDocument() [2/2]

void QwtPlotRenderer::renderDocument ( QwtPlot * plot,
const QString & fileName,
const QString & format,
const QSizeF & sizeMM,
int resolution = 85 )

Render a plot to a file

Supported formats are:

  • pdf
    Portable Document Format PDF
  • ps
    Postcript
  • svg
    Scalable Vector Graphics SVG
  • all image formats supported by Qt
    see QImageWriter::supportedImageFormats()

Scalable vector graphic formats like PDF or SVG are superior to raster graphics formats.

Parameters
