## Member Function Documentation

void QwtPlotItem::attach | ( | QwtPlot * | plot | ) | `[inherited]`

Attach the item to a plot.

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

Parameters:

  plot | Plot widget

See also:
  detach()

QRectF QwtPlotItem::boundingRect | ( |  | ) | const`[virtual, inherited]`

Returns:
  An invalid bounding rect: QRectF(1.0, 1.0, -2.0, -2.0)

Reimplemented in QwtPlotHistogram, QwtPlotIntervalCurve, QwtPlotMarker, QwtPlotRasterItem, QwtPlotSeriesItem< T >, QwtPlotSvgItem, QwtPlotSeriesItem< QwtIntervalSample >, QwtPlotSeriesItem< QPointF >, and QwtPlotSeriesItem< QwtPoint3D >.

void QwtPlotItem::detach | ( |  | ) | `[inherited]`

This method detaches a QwtPlotItem from any QwtPlot it has been associated with.

detach() is equivalent to calling attach( NULL )

See also:
  attach()

void QwtPlotAbstractSeriesItem::draw | ( | QPainter * | painter,
|  | const QwtScaleMap & | xMap,
|  | const QwtScaleMap & | yMap,
|  | const QRectF & | canvasRect
| ) |  | const`[virtual]`

Draw the complete series.

Parameters:

  painter | Painter
  xMap | Maps x-values into pixel coordinates.
  yMap | Maps y-values into pixel coordinates.
  canvasRect | Contents rect of the canvas

Implements QwtPlotItem.

virtual void QwtLegendItemManager::drawLegendIdentifier | ( | QPainter * | ,
|  | const QRectF & |
| ) |  | const`[inline, virtual, inherited]`

QwtLegendItem can display an icon-identifier followed by a text. The icon helps to identify a plot item on the plot canvas and depends on the type of information, that is displayed.

The default implementation paints nothing.

Reimplemented in QwtPlotCurve, QwtPlotHistogram, QwtPlotIntervalCurve, and QwtPlotMarker.

virtual void QwtPlotAbstractSeriesItem::drawSeries | ( | QPainter * | painter,
|  | const QwtScaleMap & | xMap,
|  | const QwtScaleMap & | yMap,
|  | const QRectF & | canvasRect,
|  | int | from,
|  | int | to
| ) |  | const`[pure virtual]`

Draw a subset of the samples

Parameters:

  painter | Painter
  xMap | Maps x-values into pixel coordinates.
  yMap | Maps y-values into pixel coordinates.
  canvasRect | Contents rect of the canvas
  from | Index of the first point to be painted
  to | Index of the last point to be painted. If to < 0 the curve will be painted to its last point.

Implemented in QwtPlotCurve, QwtPlotHistogram, QwtPlotIntervalCurve, and QwtPlotSpectroCurve.

void QwtPlotItem::hide | ( |  | ) | `[inherited]`

Hide the item.

bool QwtPlotItem::isVisible | ( |  | ) | const`[inherited]`

Returns:
  true if visible

See also:
  setVisible(), show(), hide()

void QwtPlotItem::itemChanged | ( |  | ) | `[virtual, inherited]`

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

See also:
  updateLegend()

QWidget * QwtPlotItem::legendItem | ( |  | ) | const`[virtual, inherited]`

Allocate the widget that represents the item on the legend.

The default implementation returns a QwtLegendItem(), but an item could be represented by any type of widget, by overloading legendItem() and updateLegend().

Returns:
  QwtLegendItem()

See also:
  updateLegend() QwtLegend()

Implements QwtLegendItemManager.

Qt::Orientation QwtPlotAbstractSeriesItem::orientation | ( |  | ) | const

Returns:
  Orientation of the plot item

See also:
  setOrientation()

QRectF QwtPlotItem::paintRect | ( | const QwtScaleMap & | xMap,
|  | const QwtScaleMap & | yMap
| ) |  | const`[inherited]`

Calculate the bounding paint rect of 2 maps.

Parameters:

  xMap | X map
  yMap | X map

Returns:
  Bounding paint rect of the scale maps, normalized

QwtPlot * QwtPlotItem::plot | ( |  | ) | const`[inherited]`

Return attached plot.

int QwtPlotItem::rtti | ( |  | ) | const`[virtual, inherited]`

Return rtti for the specific class represented. QwtPlotItem 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

See also:
  RttiValues

QRectF QwtPlotItem::scaleRect | ( | const QwtScaleMap & | xMap,
|  | const QwtScaleMap & | yMap
| ) |  | const`[inherited]`

Calculate the bounding scale rect of 2 maps.

Parameters:

  xMap | X map
  yMap | X map

Returns:
  Bounding scale rect of the scale maps, normalized

void QwtPlotItem::setAxes | ( | int | xAxis,
|  | int | yAxis
