insertLegend()

Enumerator

LeftLegend

The legend will be left from the canvas.

RightLegend

The legend will be right from the canvas.

BottomLegend

The legend will be below the canvas.

TopLegend

The legend will be between canvas and title.

ExternalLegend

External means that only the content of the legend will be handled by QwtPlot, but not its geometry. This might be interesting if an application wants to have a legend in an external window ( or on the canvas ).

Note

The legend is not painted by QwtPolarRenderer

Identify the plot item according to an item info object, that has bee generated from itemToInfo(). The default implementation simply tries to unwrap a QwtPlotItem pointer:

if ( itemInfo.canConvert<QwtPlotItem *>() )
    return qvariant_cast<QwtPlotItem *>( itemInfo );

Parameters

itemInfo Plot item

Returns

A plot item, when successful, otherwise a NULL pointer.

itemToInfo()

Definition at line 1357 of file qwt_polar_plot.cpp.

Insert a legend. If the position legend is QwtPolarPlot::LeftLegend or QwtPolarPlot::RightLegend the legend will be organized in one column from top to down. Otherwise the legend items will be placed in a table with a best fit number of columns from left to right.

If pos != QwtPolarPlot::ExternalLegend the plot widget will become parent of the legend. It will be deleted when the plot is deleted, or another legend is set with insertLegend().

Parameters

legend Legend
pos The legend's position. For top/left position the number of columns will be limited to 1, otherwise it will be set to unlimited.
ratio Ratio between legend and the bounding rect of title, canvas and axes. The legend will be shrunk if it would need more space than the given ratio. The ratio is limited to ]0.0 .. 1.0]. In case of <= 0.0 it will be reset to the default ratio. The default vertical/horizontal ratio is 0.33/0.5.

Parameters

plotItem Plot item

Build an information, that can be used to identify a plot item on the legend. The default implementation simply wraps the plot item into a QVariant object. When overloading itemToInfo() usually infoToItem() needs to reimplemeted too.

qVariantSetValue( itemInfo, plotItem );

Parameters

plotItem Plot item

Set or reset the autoReplot option. If the autoReplot option is set, the plot will be updated implicitly by manipulating member functions. Since this may be time-consuming, it is recommended to leave this option switched off and call replot() explicitly if necessary.

The autoReplot option is set to false by default, which means that the user has to call replot() in order to make changes visible.

Parameters

enable true or false. Defaults to true.

replot()

Definition at line 342 of file qwt_polar_plot.cpp.

Enable autoscaling. This member function is used to switch back to autoscaling mode after a fixed scale has been set. Autoscaling calculates a useful scale division from the bounding interval of all plot items with the QwtPolarItem::AutoScale attribute.

Autoscaling is only supported for the radial scale and enabled as default.

Parameters

scaleId Scale index

Change the origin of the azimuth scale. The azimuth origin is the angle where the azimuth scale shows the value 0.0. The default origin is 0.0.

Parameters

origin New origin

Translate and in/decrease the zoom factor. In zoom mode the zoom position is in the center of the canvas. The radius of the circle depends on the size of the plot canvas, that is divided by the zoom factor. Thus a factor < 1.0 zoom in.

zoomFactor Zoom factor
