Detailed Description

A plot item, which displays a spectrogram.

A spectrogram displays threedimenional data, where the 3rd dimension ( the intensity ) is displayed using colors. The colors are calculated from the values using a color map.

In ContourMode contour lines are painted for the contour levels.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtPlotRasterItem::CachePolicy [inherited] .IP · 2

NoCache
renderImage() is called, whenever the item has to be repainted

  • PaintCache
    renderImage() is called, whenever the image cache is not valid, or the scales, or the size of the canvas has changed. This type of cache is only useful for improving the performance of hide/show operations. All other situations are already handled by the plot canvas cache.
  • ScreenCache
    The screen cache is an image in size of the screen. As long as the scales don't change the target image is scaled from the cache. This might improve the performance when resizing the plot widget, but suffers from scaling effects.

The default policy is NoCache

enum QwtPlotSpectrogram::DisplayMode The display mode controls how the raster data will be represented.

  • ImageMode
    The values are mapped to colors using a color map.
  • ContourMode
    The data is displayed using contour lines

When both modes are enabled the contour lines are painted on top of the spectrogram. The default setting enables ImageMode.

See also:

setDisplayMode(), testDisplayMode()

enum QwtPlotItem::ItemAttribute [inherited] Plot Item Attributes

  • Legend
    The item is represented on the legend.
  • AutoScale
    The boundingRect() of the item is included in the autoscaling calculation.

See also:

setItemAttribute(), testItemAttribute()

enum QwtPlotItem::RenderHint [inherited]

Render hints.

enum QwtPlotItem::RttiValues [inherited]

Runtime type information. RttiValues is used to cast plot items, without having to enable runtime type information of the compiler.
