Detailed Description

A scale engine for linear scales.
 
The step size will fit into the pattern $re n is an integer.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtScaleEngine::Attribute [inherited] .IP • 2

IncludeReference
 

Build a scale which includes the reference() value.
Symmetric
 

Build a scale which is symmetric to the reference() value.
Floating
 

The endpoints of the scale are supposed to be equal the outmost included values plus the specified margins (see setMargins()). If this attribute is *not* set, the endpoints of the scale will be integer multiples of the step size.
Inverted
 

Turn the scale upside down.

Member Function Documentation

QwtDoubleInterval QwtLinearScaleEngine::align (const QwtDoubleInterval &interval, doublestepSize) const [protected]

Align an interval to a step size. The limits of an interval are aligned that both are integer multiples of the step size.
Parameters:
interval Interval
 
stepSize Step size
Returns:
Aligned interval
 

int QwtScaleEngine::attributes () const [inherited] Return the scale attributes

See also:
Attribute, setAttributes(), testAttribute()
 

void QwtLinearScaleEngine::autoScale (intmaxNumSteps, double &x1, double &x2, double &stepSize) const [virtual] Align and divide an interval

Parameters:
maxNumSteps Max. number of steps
 
x1 First limit of the interval (In/Out)
 
x2 Second limit of the interval (In/Out)
 
stepSize Step size (Out)
See also:
setAttribute()
 
Implements QwtScaleEngine.

QwtDoubleInterval QwtScaleEngine::buildInterval (doublev) const [protected, inherited]

Build an interval for a value. In case of v == 0.0 the interval is [-0.5, 0.5], otherwide it is [0.5 * v, 1.5 * v]

bool QwtScaleEngine::contains (const QwtDoubleInterval &interval, doublevalue) const [protected, inherited] Check if an interval 'contains' a value

Parameters:
interval Interval
 
value Value
See also:
QwtScaleArithmetic::compareEps()
 

double QwtScaleEngine::divideInterval (doubleintervalSize, intnumSteps) const [protected, inherited] Calculate a step size for an interval size

Parameters:
intervalSize Interval size
 
numSteps Number of steps
Returns:
Step size
 

QwtScaleDiv QwtLinearScaleEngine::divideScale (doublex1, doublex2, intmaxMajSteps, intmaxMinSteps, doublestepSize = 0.0) const [virtual]

Calculate a scale division. Parameters:
x1 First interval limit
 
x2 Second interval limit
 
maxMajSteps Maximum for the number of major steps
 
maxMinSteps Maximum number of minor steps
 
stepSize Step size. If stepSize == 0, the scaleEngine calculates one.
See also:
QwtScaleEngine::stepSize(), QwtScaleEngine::subDivide()
 
Implements QwtScaleEngine.

double QwtScaleEngine::lowerMargin () const [inherited] Returns:

the margin at the lower end of the scale The default margin is 0.
See also:
setMargins()
 

double QwtScaleEngine::reference () const [inherited] Returns:

the reference value
See also:
setReference(), setAttribute()
 

void QwtScaleEngine::setAttribute (Attributeattribute, boolon = true) [inherited] Change a scale attribute

Parameters:
attribute Attribute to change
 
on On/Off
See also:
Attribute, testAttribute()
 

void QwtScaleEngine::setAttributes (intattributes) [inherited] Change the scale attribute

Parameters:
attributes Set scale attributes
See also:
Attribute, attributes()
 

void QwtScaleEngine::setMargins (doublelower, doubleupper) [inherited]

Specify margins at the scale's endpoints. Parameters:
lower minimum distance between the scale's lower boundary and the smallest enclosed value
 
upper minimum distance between the scale's upper boundary and the greatest enclosed value
Margins can be used to leave a minimum amount of space between the enclosed intervals and the boundaries of the scale.
Warning:
QwtLog10ScaleEngine measures the margins in decades.
See also:
upperMargin(), lowerMargin()
 

void QwtScaleEngine::setReference (doubler) [inherited]

Specify a reference point. Parameters:
r new reference value
The reference point is needed if options IncludeReference or Symmetric are active. Its default value is 0.0.

Attribute
 

QwtValueList QwtScaleEngine::strip (const QwtValueList &ticks, const QwtDoubleInterval &interval) const [protected, inherited] Remove ticks from a list, that are not inside an interval

Parameters:
ticks Tick list
 
interval Interval
Returns:
Stripped tick list
 

bool QwtScaleEngine::testAttribute (Attributeattribute) const [inherited] Check if a attribute is set.

Parameters:
attribute Attribute to be tested
See also:
Attribute, setAttribute()
 

QwtScaleTransformation * QwtLinearScaleEngine::transformation () const [virtual] Return a transformation, for linear scales

Implements QwtScaleEngine.

double QwtScaleEngine::upperMargin () const [inherited] Returns:

the margin at the upper end of the scale The default margin is 0.
See also:
setMargins()
