Member Function Documentation

   QwtInterval QwtLinearScaleEngine::align (const QwtInterval & interval, double stepSize) const
       [protected]
       Align an interval to a step size. The limits of an interval are aligned that both are
       integer multiples of the step size.

       Parameters:
           interval Interval
           stepSize Step size

       Returns:
           Aligned interval

   void QwtLinearScaleEngine::autoScale (int maxNumSteps, double & x1, double & x2, double &
       stepSize) const [virtual]
       Align and divide an interval

       Parameters:
           maxNumSteps Max. number of steps
           x1 First limit of the interval (In/Out)
           x2 Second limit of the interval (In/Out)
           stepSize Step size (Out)

   QList< double > QwtLinearScaleEngine::buildMajorTicks (const QwtInterval & interval, double
       stepSize) const [protected]
       Calculate major ticks for an interval.

       Parameters:
           interval Interval
           stepSize Step size

       Returns:
           Calculated ticks

   void QwtLinearScaleEngine::buildMinorTicks (const QList< double > & majorTicks, int
       maxMinorSteps, double stepSize, QList< double > & minorTicks, QList< double > &
       mediumTicks) const [protected]
       Calculate minor/medium ticks for major ticks.

       Parameters:
           majorTicks Major ticks
           maxMinorSteps Maximum number of minor steps
           stepSize Step size
           minorTicks Array to be filled with the calculated minor ticks
           mediumTicks Array to be filled with the calculated medium ticks

   void QwtLinearScaleEngine::buildTicks (const QwtInterval & interval, double stepSize, int
       maxMinorSteps, QList< double > ticks[QwtScaleDiv::NTickTypes]) const [protected]
       Calculate ticks for an interval.

       Parameters:
           interval Interval
           stepSize Step size
           maxMinorSteps Maximum number of minor steps
           ticks Arrays to be filled with the calculated ticks

           buildMajorTicks(), buildMinorTicks

   QwtScaleDiv QwtLinearScaleEngine::divideScale (double x1, double x2, int maxMajorSteps, int
       maxMinorSteps, double stepSize = 0.0) const [virtual]
       Calculate a scale division for an interval.

       Parameters:
           x1 First interval limit
           x2 Second interval limit
           maxMajorSteps Maximum for the number of major steps
           maxMinorSteps Maximum number of minor steps
           stepSize Step size. If stepSize == 0, the engine calculates one.

       Returns:
           Calculated scale division
