Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtPlotRenderer::DiscardFlag

Disard flags.

Enumerator
DiscardNone

Render all components of the plot.

DiscardBackground

Don’t render the background of the plot.

DiscardTitle

Don’t render the title of the plot.

DiscardLegend

Don’t render the legend of the plot.

DiscardCanvasBackground

Don’t render the background of the canvas.

DiscardFooter

Don’t render the footer of the plot.

DiscardCanvasFrame

Don’t render the frame of the canvas

Note:

This flag has no effect when using style sheets, where the frame is part of the background

enum QwtPlotRenderer::LayoutFlag

Layout flags.

setLayoutFlag(), testLayoutFlag()

Enumerator
DefaultLayout

Use the default layout as on screen.

FrameWithScales

Instead of the scales a box is painted around the plot canvas, where the scale ticks are aligned to.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QwtPlotRenderer::QwtPlotRenderer (QObject * parent = NULL) [explicit]

Constructor

Parameters:

parent Parent object

Member Function Documentation

QwtPlotRenderer::DiscardFlags QwtPlotRenderer::discardFlags () const

Returns:

Flags, indicating what to discard from rendering

renderDocument()

QwtPlotRenderer::LayoutFlags QwtPlotRenderer::layoutFlags () const

Returns:

Layout flags

See also:

LayoutFlag, setLayoutFlags(), setLayoutFlag(), testLayoutFlag()

void QwtPlotRenderer::render (QwtPlot * plot, QPainter * painter, constQRectF & plotRect) const [virtual]

Paint the contents of a QwtPlot instance into a given rectangle.

Parameters:

plot Plot to be rendered
painter Painter
plotRect Bounding rectangle

See also:

renderDocument(), renderTo(), QwtPainter::setRoundingAlignment()

void QwtPlotRenderer::renderCanvas (const QwtPlot * plot, QPainter * painter,const QRectF & canvasRect, const QwtScaleMap * maps) const [virtual]

Render the canvas into a given rectangle.

Parameters:

plot Plot widget
painter Painter
maps Maps mapping between plot and paint device coordinates
canvasRect Canvas rectangle

void QwtPlotRenderer::renderDocument (QwtPlot * plot, const QString &fileName, const QSizeF & sizeMM, int resolution = 85)

Render a plot to a file

The format of the document will be auto-detected from the suffix of the file name.

Parameters:

plot Plot widget
fileName Path of the file, where the document will be stored
sizeMM Size for the document in millimeters.
resolution Resolution in dots per Inch (dpi)

void QwtPlotRenderer::renderDocument (QwtPlot * plot, const QString &fileName, const QString & format, const QSizeF & sizeMM, int resolution =85)

Render a plot to a file

Supported formats are:

•

pdf

Portable Document Format PDF

•

ps

Postcript

•

svg

Scalable Vector Graphics SVG

•

all image formats supported by Qt

see QImageWriter::supportedImageFormats()

Scalable vector graphic formats like PDF or SVG are superior to raster graphics formats.

Parameters:

plot Plot widget
fileName Path of the file, where the document will be stored
format Format for the document
sizeMM Size for the document in millimeters.
resolution Resolution in dots per Inch (dpi)
