.SH "Detailed Description"
.PP 
Synthetic point data. 

\fBQwtSyntheticPointData\fP provides a fixed number of points for an interval. The points are calculated in equidistant steps in x-direction.
.PP
If the interval is invalid, the points are calculated for the 'rect of interest', what normally is the displayed area on the plot canvas. In this mode you get different levels of detail, when zooming in/out.

.SS "QRectF QwtSyntheticPointData::boundingRect () const\fC [virtual]\fP"
.PP
Calculate the bounding rect. This implementation iterates over all points, what could often be implemented much faster using the characteristics of the series. When there are many points it is recommended to overload and reimplement this method using the characteristics of the series ( if possible ).
