Detailed Description

An analog clock.

Example

#include <qwt_analog_clock.h>

  QwtAnalogClock *clock = new QwtAnalogClock(...);
  clock->scaleDraw()->setPenWidth(3);
  clock->setLineWidth(6);
  clock->setFrameShadow(QwtDial::Sunken);
  clock->setTime();

  // update the clock every second
  QTimer *timer = new QTimer(clock);
  timer->connect(timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), clock, SLOT(setCurrentTime()));
  timer->start(1000);

  

Qwt is missing a set of good looking hands. Contributions are very welcome.

Note:

The examples/dials example shows how to use QwtAnalogClock.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtDial::Direction [inherited] Direction of the dial

enum QwtAnalogClock::Hand Hand type

See also:

setHand(), hand()

enum QwtDial::Mode [inherited] In case of RotateNeedle the needle is rotating, in case of RotateScale, the needle points to origin() and the scale is rotating.

enum QwtDial::ScaleOptions [inherited]

see QwtDial::setScaleOptions

enum QwtAbstractSlider::ScrollMode [inherited] Scroll mode

See also:

getScrollMode()

enum QwtDial::Shadow [inherited]

Parameters:

origin New origin

See also:

void QwtDoubleRange::setPeriodic (booltf) [inherited]

Make the range periodic. When the range is periodic, the value will be set to a point inside the interval such that

point = value + n * width .fi


if the user tries to set a new value which is outside the range. If the range is nonperiodic (the default), values outside the range will be clipped.

Parameters:tf true for a periodic range

Specify range and step size. Parameters:

vmin lower boundary of the interval
vmax higher boundary of the interval
vstep step width
pageSize page size in steps

Warning:
  • A change of the range changes the value if it lies outside the new range. The current value will *not* be adjusted to the new step raster.
  • vmax < vmin is allowed.
  • If the step size is left out or set to zero, it will be set to 1/100 of the interval length.
  • If the step size has an absurd value, it will be corrected to a better one.

void QwtAbstractSlider::setReadOnly (boolreadOnly) [virtual, slot, inherited] En/Disable read only mode

In read only mode the slider can't be controlled by mouse or keyboard.
