Enumerator

CubicRunout

The second derivate at the endpoint is related to the second derivatives at the 2 neighbours: cv[0] := 2.0 * cv[1] - cv[2].

Note

boundaryValue() is ignored

NotAKnot

The 3rd derivate at the endpoint matches the 3rd derivate at its neighbours. Or in other words: the first/last curve segment extents the polynomial of its neighboured polynomial

Note

boundaryValue() is ignored

Constructor. The default setting is a non closing spline with no parametrization ( QwtSplineParametrization::ParameterX ).

Definition at line 1228 of file qwt_spline.cpp.

Interpolate a curve with Bezier curves. Interpolates a polygon piecewise with cubic Bezier curves and returns the 2 control points of each curve as QLineF.

Parameters

points Control points

Returns

Control points of the interpolating Bezier curves

Note

The implementation simply calls QwtSplineC1::bezierControlLines(), but is intended to be replaced by a more efficient implementation that builds the polynomials by the curvatures some day.

Reimplemented from QwtSplineC1.

Reimplemented in QwtSplineCubic.

Definition at line 1270 of file qwt_spline.cpp.

Find the second derivative at the control points.

Parameters

points Control nodes of the spline

Returns

Vector with the values of the 2nd derivate at the control points

See also

slopes()

Note

The x coordinates need to be increasing or decreasing

Implemented in QwtSplineCubic.

Find an interpolated polygon with 'equidistant' points. The implementation is optimzed for non parametric curves ( QwtSplineParametrization::ParameterX ) and falls back to QwtSpline::equidistantPolygon() otherwise.

Parameters

points Control nodes of the spline
distance Distance between 2 points according to the parametrization
withNodes When true, also add the control nodes ( even if not being equidistant )

Returns

Interpolating polygon

Definition at line 1295 of file qwt_spline.cpp.

Interpolate a curve with Bezier curves. Interpolates a polygon piecewise with cubic Bezier curves and returns them as QPainterPath.

Parameters

points Control points

Returns

Painter path, that can be rendered by QPainter

Note

The implementation simply calls QwtSplineC1::painterPath(), but is intended to be replaced by a one pass calculation some day.

Calculate the interpolating polynomials for a non parametric spline. C2 spline interpolations are based on finding values for the second derivates of f at the control points. The interpolating polynomials can be calculated from the the second derivates using QwtSplinePolynomial::fromCurvatures.

The default implementation is a 2 pass calculation. In derived classes it might be overloaded by a one pass implementation.

Parameters

points Control points

Returns

Interpolating polynomials

Note

The x coordinates need to be increasing or decreasing

Definition at line 1381 of file qwt_spline.cpp.

Find the first derivative at the control points. An implementation calculating the 2nd derivatives and then building the slopes in a 2nd loop. QwtSplineCubic overloads it with a more performant implementation doing it in one loop.

Parameters

points Control nodes of the spline

Returns

Vector with the values of the 1nd derivate at the control points

curvatures()

Note

The x coordinates need to be increasing or decreasing
