Runtime type information. RttiValues is used to cast plot items, without having to enable runtime type information of the compiler.

Enumerator

Rtti_PolarItem

Unspecific value, that can be used, when it doesn't matter.

Rtti_PolarGrid

For QwtPolarGrid.

Rtti_PolarMarker

For QwtPolarMarker.

Rtti_PolarCurve

For QwtPolarCurve.

Rtti_PolarSpectrogram

For QwtPolarSpectrogram.

Rtti_PolarUserItem

Values >= Rtti_PolarUserItem are reserved for plot items not implemented in the QwtPolar library.

Definition at line 46 of file qwt_polar_item.h.

Constructor

Parameters

title Item title, f.e used on a legend

See also

setTitle()

Definition at line 48 of file qwt_polar_item.cpp.

Attach the item to a plot. This method will attach a QwtPolarItem to the QwtPolarPlot argument. It will first detach the QwtPolarItem from any plot from a previous call to attach (if necessary). If a NULL argument is passed, it will detach from any QwtPolarPlot it was attached to.

Parameters

plot Plot widget

See also

QwtPolarItem::detach()

Definition at line 74 of file qwt_polar_item.cpp.

Interval, that is necessary to display the item

This interval can be useful for operations like clipping or autoscaling For items ( like the grid ), where a bounding interval makes no sense an invalid interval is returned.

Parameters

scaleId Scale id ( QwtPolar::Scale )

Returns

Bounding interval of the plot item for a specific scale

Reimplemented in QwtPolarSpectrogram, QwtPolarMarker, and QwtPolarCurve.

Definition at line 381 of file qwt_polar_item.cpp.

This method detaches a QwtPolarItem from the QwtPolarPlot it has been associated with. detach() is equivalent to calling attach( NULL )

See also

attach()

Definition at line 95 of file qwt_polar_item.cpp.

Draw the item.

Parameters

painter Painter
azimuthMap Maps azimuth values to values related to 0.0, M_2PI
radialMap Maps radius values into painter coordinates.
pole Position of the pole in painter coordinates
radius Radius of the complete plot area in painter coordinates
canvasRect Contents rect of the canvas in painter coordinates

Implemented in QwtPolarSpectrogram, QwtPolarMarker, QwtPolarGrid, and QwtPolarCurve.

Returns

true if visible

Update the legend and call QwtPolarPlot::autoRefresh for the parent plot.

See also

updateLegend()

Definition at line 355 of file qwt_polar_item.cpp.

Update the legend of the parent plot.

Return all information, that is needed to represent the item on the legend. Most items are represented by one entry on the legend showing an icon and a text.

QwtLegendData is basically a list of QVariants that makes it possible to overload and reimplement legendData() to return almost any type of information, that is understood by the receiver that acts as the legend.

The default implementation returns one entry with the title() of the item and the legendIcon().

See also

title(), legendIcon(), QwtLegend

Definition at line 428 of file qwt_polar_item.cpp.

Returns

Icon representing the item on the legend

The default implementation returns an invalid icon

Parameters

index Index of the legend entry ( usually there is only one )
size Icon size

See also

setLegendIconSize(), legendData()

Reimplemented in QwtPolarCurve.

Definition at line 462 of file qwt_polar_item.cpp.

Returns

Legend icon size

See also

setLegendIconSize(), legendIcon()

Definition at line 308 of file qwt_polar_item.cpp.

Some items like to display something (f.e. the azimuth axis) outside of the area of the interval of the radial scale. The default implementation returns 0 pixels

Returns

Hint for the margin

Reimplemented in QwtPolarGrid.

Definition at line 478 of file qwt_polar_item.cpp.

Returns

Attached plot

Definition at line 118 of file qwt_polar_item.cpp.

Returns

Number of threads to be used for rendering. If numThreads() is set to 0, the system specific ideal thread count is used.

Definition at line 282 of file qwt_polar_item.cpp.

Return rtti for the specific class represented. QwtPolarItem is simply a virtual interface class, and base classes will implement this method with specific rtti values so a user can differentiate them.

The rtti value is useful for environments, where the runtime type information is disabled and it is not possible to do a dynamic_cast<...>.

Returns

rtti value

On multi core systems rendering of certain plot item ( f.e QwtPolarSpectrogram ) can be done in parallel in several threads.

The default setting is set to 1.

Parameters

numThreads Number of threads to be used for rendering. If numThreads is set to 0, the system specific ideal thread count is used.

The default thread count is 1 ( = no additional threads )

radialScaleDiv Scale division of the radius-axis
interval The interval of the radius-axis, that is visible on the canvas
