.SH "Detailed Description"
.PP 
A class for drawing datetime scales\&. 

\fBQwtDateScaleDraw\fP displays values as datetime labels\&. The format of the labels depends on the alignment of the major tick labels\&.
.PP
The default format strings are:
.PP
.IP "\(bu" 2
Millisecond
.br
 'hh:mm:ss:zzz\\nddd dd MMM yyyy'
.IP "\(bu" 2
Second
.br
 'hh:mm:ss\\nddd dd MMM yyyy'
.IP "\(bu" 2
Minute
.br
 'hh:mm\\nddd dd MMM yyyy'
.IP "\(bu" 2
Hour
.br
 'hh:mm\\nddd dd MMM yyyy'
.IP "\(bu" 2
Day
.br
 'ddd dd MMM yyyy'
.IP "\(bu" 2
Week
.br
 'Www yyyy'
.IP "\(bu" 2
Month
.br
 'MMM yyyy'
.IP "\(bu" 2
Year
.br
 'yyyy'
.PP
.PP
The format strings can be modified using \fBsetDateFormat()\fP or individually for each tick label by overloading \fBdateFormatOfDate()\fP,
.PP
Usually \fBQwtDateScaleDraw\fP is used in combination with \fBQwtDateScaleEngine\fP, that calculates scales for datetime intervals\&.
