Detailed Description

A helper class for translating a series of points.

QwtPointMapper is a collection of methods and optimizations for translating a series of points into paint device coordinates. It is used by QwtPlotCurve but might also be useful for similar plot items displaying a QwtSeriesData<QPointF>.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ TransformationFlags

An ORed combination of TransformationFlag values.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ TransformationFlag

Flags affecting the transformation process.

setFlag(), setFlags()
Enumerator
RoundPoints 

Round points to integer values.

WeedOutPoints 

Try to remove points, that are translated to the same position.

WeedOutIntermediatePoints 

An even more aggressive weeding algorithm, that can be used in toPolygon().

A consecutive chunk of points being mapped to the same x coordinate is reduced to 4 points:

  • first point
  • point with the minimum y coordinate
  • point with the maximum y coordinate
  • last point

In the worst case ( first and last points are never one of the extremes ) the number of points will be 4 times the width.

As the algorithm is fast it can be used inside of a polyline render cycle.

◆ setFlag()

void QwtPointMapper::setFlag ( TransformationFlag flag,
bool on = true )

Modify a flag affecting the transformation process

Parameters
flagFlag type
onValue

flag(), setFlags()

◆ setFlags()

void QwtPointMapper::setFlags ( TransformationFlags flags)

Set the flags affecting the transformation process

Parameters

Parameters

◆ toImage()

QImage QwtPointMapper::toImage ( const QwtScaleMap & xMap,
const QwtScaleMap & yMap,
const QwtSeriesData< QPointF > * series,
int from,
int to,
const QPen & pen,
bool antialiased,
uint numThreads ) const

Translate a series into a QImage.

Parameters
xMapx map
yMapy map
seriesSeries of points to be mapped
fromIndex of the first point to be painted
toIndex of the last point to be painted
penPen used for drawing a point of the image, where a point is mapped to
antialiasedTrue, when the dots should be displayed antialiased
numThreadsNumber of threads to be used for rendering. If numThreads is set to 0, the system specific ideal thread count is used.
Returns
Image displaying the series

◆ toPoints()

QPolygon QwtPointMapper::toPoints ( const QwtScaleMap & xMap,
const QwtScaleMap & yMap,
const QwtSeriesData< QPointF > * series,
int from,
int to ) const

Translate a series of points into a QPolygon.

  • WeedOutPoints & boundingRect().isValid() All points that are mapped to the same position will be one point. Points outside of the bounding rectangle are ignored.
  • WeedOutPoints & !boundingRect().isValid() All consecutive points that are mapped to the same position will one point
  • !WeedOutPoints & boundingRect().isValid() Points outside of the bounding rectangle are ignored.
Parameters
xMapx map
yMapy map
seriesSeries of points to be mapped
fromIndex of the first point to be painted
toIndex of the last point to be painted
Returns
Translated polygon

Definition at line 833 of file qwt_point_mapper.cpp.

◆ toPointsF()

QPolygonF QwtPointMapper::toPointsF ( const QwtScaleMap & xMap,
const QwtScaleMap & yMap,
const QwtSeriesData< QPointF > * series,
int from,
int to ) const

Translate a series into a QPolygonF.

  • WeedOutPoints & RoundPoints & boundingRect().isValid() All points that are mapped to the same position will be one point. Points outside of the bounding rectangle are ignored.
  • WeedOutPoints & RoundPoints & !boundingRect().isValid() All consecutive points that are mapped to the same position will one point
  • WeedOutPoints & !RoundPoints All consecutive points that are mapped to the same position will one point
  • !WeedOutPoints & boundingRect().isValid() Points outside of the bounding rectangle are ignored.

When RoundPoints is set all points are rounded to integers but returned as PolygonF - what only makes sense when the further processing of the values need a QPolygonF.

Parameters
xMapx map
yMapy map
seriesSeries of points to be mapped
fromIndex of the first point to be painted
toIndex of the last point to be painted
Returns
Translated polygon

Definition at line 759 of file qwt_point_mapper.cpp.

◆ toPolygon()

QPolygon QwtPointMapper::toPolygon ( const QwtScaleMap & xMap,
const QwtScaleMap & yMap,
const QwtSeriesData< QPointF > * series,
int from,
int to ) const

Translate a series of points into a QPolygon.

When the WeedOutPoints flag is enabled consecutive points, that are mapped to the same position will be one point.

Parameters
xMapx map
yMapy map
seriesSeries of points to be mapped
fromIndex of the first point to be painted
toIndex of the last point to be painted
Returns
Translated polygon

Definition at line 702 of file qwt_point_mapper.cpp.

◆ toPolygonF()

QPolygonF QwtPointMapper::toPolygonF ( const QwtScaleMap & xMap,
const QwtScaleMap & yMap,
const QwtSeriesData< QPointF > * series,
int from,
int to ) const

Translate a series of points into a QPolygonF.

When the WeedOutPoints flag is enabled consecutive points, that are mapped to the same position will be one point.

When RoundPoints is set all points are rounded to integers but returned as PolygonF - what only makes sense when the further processing of the values need a QPolygonF.

When RoundPoints & WeedOutIntermediatePoints is enabled an even more aggressive weeding algorithm is enabled.

Parameters
xMapx map
yMapy map
seriesSeries of points to be mapped
fromIndex of the first point to be painted
toIndex of the last point to be painted
Returns
Translated polygon
