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

◆ bounded()

double QwtTransform::bounded ( double value) const
virtual

Modify value to be a valid value for the transformation. The default implementation does nothing.

Parameters
valueValue to be bounded
Returns
value unmodified

Reimplemented in QwtLogTransform.

Definition at line 33 of file qwt_transform.cpp.

◆ copy()

virtual QwtTransform * QwtTransform::copy ( ) const
pure virtual

Virtualized copy operation.

Implemented in QwtNullTransform, QwtLogTransform, and QwtPowerTransform.

◆ invTransform()

virtual double QwtTransform::invTransform ( double value) const
pure virtual

Inverse transformation function

Parameters
valueValue
Returns
Modified value
See also
transform()

Transformation function

Parameters
valueValue
Returns
Modified value
