Detailed Description

QwtPlotBarChart displays a series of a values as bars.

Each bar might be customized individually by implementing a specialSymbol(). Otherwise it is rendered using a default symbol.

Depending on its orientation() the bars are displayed horizontally or vertically. The bars cover the interval between the baseline() and the value.

By activating the LegendBarTitles mode each sample will have its own entry on the legend.

The most common use case of a bar chart is to display a list of y coordinates, where the x coordinate is simply the index in the list. But for other situations ( f.e. when values are related to dates ) it is also possible to set x coordinates explicitly.

LegendChartTitle 

One entry on the legend showing the default symbol and the title() of the chart

See Also

QwtPlotBarChart::QwtPlotBarChart ( const QString &  title = QString::null)
explicit

Constructor

Parameters
titleTitle of the curve
QwtPlotBarChart::QwtPlotBarChart ( const QwtText title)
explicit

Constructor

Parameters
titleTitle of the curve

Member Function Documentation

QwtText QwtPlotBarChart::barTitle ( int  sampleIndex) const
virtual

Return the title of a bar.

In LegendBarTitles mode the title is displayed on the legend entry corresponding to a bar.

The default implementation is a dummy, that is intended to be overloaded.

Parameters
sampleIndexIndex of the bar
Returns
An empty text
See Also
LegendBarTitles
QRectF QwtPlotBarChart::boundingRect ( ) const
virtual
Returns
Bounding rectangle of all samples. For an empty series the rectangle is invalid.

Reimplemented from QwtPlotSeriesItem.

void QwtPlotBarChart::drawBar ( QPainter *  painter,
int  sampleIndex,
const QPointF &  sample,
const QwtColumnRect rect 
) const
protectedvirtual

Draw a bar

Parameters
painterPainter
sampleIndexIndex of the sample represented by the bar
sampleValue of the sample
rectBounding rectangle of the bar
void QwtPlotBarChart::drawSample ( QPainter *  painter,
const QwtScaleMap xMap,
const QwtScaleMap yMap,
const QRectF &  canvasRect,
const QwtInterval boundingInterval,
int  index,
const QPointF &  sample 
) const
protectedvirtual

Draw a sample

Parameters
painterPainter
xMapx map
yMapy map
canvasRectContents rect of the canvas
boundingIntervalBounding interval of sample values
indexIndex of the sample
sampleValue of the sample

void QwtPlotBarChart::drawSeries ( QPainter *  painter,
const QwtScaleMap xMap,
const QwtScaleMap yMap,
const QRectF &  canvasRect,
int  from,
int  to 
) const
virtual

Draw an interval of the bar chart

Parameters
painterPainter
xMapMaps x-values into pixel coordinates.
yMapMaps y-values into pixel coordinates.
canvasRectContents rect of the canvas
fromIndex of the first point to be painted
toIndex of the last point to be painted. If to < 0 the curve will be painted to its last point.

drawSymbols()

Implements QwtPlotSeriesItem.

QList< QwtLegendData > QwtPlotBarChart::legendData ( ) const
protectedvirtual

Return all information, that is needed to represent the item on the legend.

In case of LegendBarTitles an entry for each bar is returned, otherwise the chart is represented like any other plot item from its title() and the legendIcon().

Returns
Information, that is needed to represent the item on the legend
See Also
title(), setLegendMode(), barTitle(), QwtLegend, QwtPlotLegendItem

Reimplemented from QwtPlotItem.

QwtGraphic QwtPlotBarChart::legendIcon ( int  index,
const QSizeF &  size 
) const
protectedvirtual
Returns
Icon representing a bar or the chart on the legend

When the legendMode() is LegendBarTitles the icon shows the bar corresponding to index - otherwise the bar displays the default symbol.

Parameters
indexIndex of the legend entry
sizeIcon size
See Also
setLegendMode(), drawBar(), QwtPlotItem::setLegendIconSize(), QwtPlotItem::legendData()

Reimplemented from QwtPlotItem.

QwtPlotBarChart::LegendMode QwtPlotBarChart::legendMode ( ) const
Returns
Legend mode
See Also
setLegendMode()
int QwtPlotBarChart::rtti ( ) const
virtual
Returns
QwtPlotItem::Rtti_PlotBarChart

Reimplemented from QwtPlotItem.

void QwtPlotBarChart::setLegendMode ( LegendMode  mode)

Set the mode that decides what to display on the legend

In case of LegendBarTitles barTitle() needs to be overloaded to return individual titles for each bar.

Parameters
modeNew mode
See Also
legendMode(), legendData(), barTitle(), QwtPlotItem::ItemAttribute
void QwtPlotBarChart::setSamples ( const QVector< QPointF > &  samples)

Initialize data with an array of points

Parameters
samplesVector of points
Note
QVector is implicitly shared
QPolygonF is derived from QVector<QPointF>
void QwtPlotBarChart::setSamples ( const QVector< double > &  samples)

Initialize data with an array of doubles

The indices in the array are taken as x coordinate, while the doubles are interpreted as y values.

Parameters
samplesVector of y coordinates
Note
QVector is implicitly shared
void QwtPlotBarChart::setSamples ( QwtSeriesData< QPointF > *  data)

Assign a series of samples

setSamples() is just a wrapper for setData() without any additional value - beside that it is easier to find for the developer.

Parameters
dataData
Warning
The item takes ownership of the data object, deleting it when its not used anymore.
void QwtPlotBarChart::setSymbol ( QwtColumnSymbol symbol)

Assign a symbol.

The bar chart will take the ownership of the symbol, hence the previously set symbol will be delete by setting a new one. If symbol is NULL no symbol will be drawn.

Parameters
symbolSymbol
See Also
symbol()
QwtColumnSymbol * QwtPlotBarChart::specialSymbol ( int  sampleIndex,
const QPointF &  sample 
) const
virtual

Needs to be overloaded to return a non default symbol for a specific sample

Parameters
sampleIndexIndex of the sample represented by the bar
sampleValue of the sample
Returns
NULL, indicating to use the default symbol
const QwtColumnSymbol * QwtPlotBarChart::symbol ( ) const
Returns
Current symbol or NULL, when no symbol has been assigned
