Detailed Description
QwtPlotZoomer provides stacked zooming for a plot widget.
QwtPlotZoomer selects rectangles from user inputs ( mouse or keyboard ) translates them
into plot coordinates and adjusts the axes to them. The selection is supported by a rubber
band and optionally by displaying the coordinates of the current mouse position.
Zooming can be repeated as often as possible, limited only by maxStackDepth() or
minZoomSize(). Each rectangle is pushed on a stack.
The default setting how to select rectangles is a QwtPickerDragRectMachine with the
following bindings:
• QwtEventPattern::MouseSelect1
The first point of the zoom rectangle is selected by a mouse press, the second point
from the position, where the mouse is released.
• QwtEventPattern::KeySelect1
The first key press selects the first, the second key press selects the second point.
• QwtEventPattern::KeyAbort
Discard the selection in the state, where the first point is selected.
To traverse the zoom stack the following bindings are used:
• QwtEventPattern::MouseSelect3, QwtEventPattern::KeyUndo
Zoom out one position on the zoom stack
• QwtEventPattern::MouseSelect6, QwtEventPattern::KeyRedo
Zoom in one position on the zoom stack
• QwtEventPattern::MouseSelect2, QwtEventPattern::KeyHome
Zoom to the zoom base
The setKeyPattern() and setMousePattern() functions can be used to configure the zoomer
actions. The following example shows, how to configure the 'I' and 'O' keys for zooming in
and out one position on the zoom stack. The 'Home' key is used to 'unzoom' the plot.
zoomer = new QwtPlotZoomer( plot );
zoomer->setKeyPattern( QwtEventPattern::KeyRedo, Qt::Key_I, Qt::ShiftModifier );
zoomer->setKeyPattern( QwtEventPattern::KeyUndo, Qt::Key_O, Qt::ShiftModifier );
zoomer->setKeyPattern( QwtEventPattern::KeyHome, Qt::Key_Home );
QwtPlotZoomer is tailored for plots with one x and y axis, but it is allowed to attach a
second QwtPlotZoomer ( without rubber band and tracker ) for the other axes.
Note:
The realtime example includes an derived zoomer class that adds scrollbars to the plot
canvas.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation
QwtPlotZoomer::QwtPlotZoomer (QWidget * canvas, bool doReplot = true) [explicit]
Create a zoomer for a plot canvas. The zoomer is set to those x- and y-axis of the parent
plot of the canvas that are enabled. If both or no x-axis are enabled, the picker is set
to QwtPlot::xBottom. If both or no y-axis are enabled, it is set to QwtPlot::yLeft.
The zoomer is initialized with a QwtPickerDragRectMachine, the tracker mode is set to
QwtPicker::ActiveOnly and the rubber band is set to QwtPicker::RectRubberBand
Parameters:
canvas Plot canvas to observe, also the parent object
doReplot Call QwtPlot::replot() for the attached plot before initializing the zoomer
with its scales. This might be necessary, when the plot is in a state with pending
scale changes.
See also:
QwtPlot::autoReplot(), QwtPlot::replot(), setZoomBase()
QwtPlotZoomer::QwtPlotZoomer (int xAxis, int yAxis, QWidget * canvas, bool doReplot = true)
[explicit]
Create a zoomer for a plot canvas. The zoomer is initialized with a
QwtPickerDragRectMachine, the tracker mode is set to QwtPicker::ActiveOnly and the rubber
band is set to QwtPicker;;RectRubberBand
Parameters:
xAxis X axis of the zoomer
yAxis Y axis of the zoomer
canvas Plot canvas to observe, also the parent object
doReplot Call QwtPlot::replot() for the attached plot before initializing the zoomer
with its scales. This might be necessary, when the plot is in a state with pending
scale changes.

Member Function Documentation
bool QwtPlotZoomer::accept (QPolygon & pa) const [protected], [virtual]
Check and correct a selected rectangle. Reject rectangles with a height or width < 2,
otherwise expand the selected rectangle to a minimum size of 11x11 and accept it.
Returns:
true If the rectangle is accepted, or has been changed to an accepted one.
Reimplemented from QwtPicker.
void QwtPlotZoomer::begin () [protected], [virtual]
Rejects selections, when the stack depth is too deep, or the zoomed rectangle is
minZoomSize().
See also:
minZoomSize(), maxStackDepth()
Reimplemented from QwtPicker.
bool QwtPlotZoomer::end (bool ok = true) [protected], [virtual]
Expand the selected rectangle to minZoomSize() and zoom in if accepted.
Parameters:
ok If true, complete the selection and emit selected signals otherwise discard the
selection.
See also:
accept(), minZoomSize()
Returns:
True if the selection has been accepted, false otherwise
Reimplemented from QwtPlotPicker.
int QwtPlotZoomer::maxStackDepth () const
Returns:
Maximal depth of the zoom stack.
See also:
setMaxStackDepth()
QSizeF QwtPlotZoomer::minZoomSize () const [protected], [virtual]
Limit zooming by a minimum rectangle.
Returns:
zoomBase().width() / 10e4, zoomBase().height() / 10e4
void QwtPlotZoomer::moveBy (double dx, double dy) [slot]
Move the current zoom rectangle.
Parameters:
dx X offset
dy Y offset
Note:
The changed rectangle is limited by the zoom base
void QwtPlotZoomer::moveTo (const QPointF & pos) [virtual], [slot]
Move the the current zoom rectangle.
Parameters:
pos New position
See also:
QRectF::moveTo()
Note:
The changed rectangle is limited by the zoom base
void QwtPlotZoomer::rescale () [protected], [virtual]
Adjust the observed plot to zoomRect()
Note:
Initiates QwtPlot::replot()
void QwtPlotZoomer::setAxis (int xAxis, int yAxis) [virtual]
Reinitialize the axes, and set the zoom base to their scales.
Parameters:
xAxis X axis
yAxis Y axis
Reimplemented from QwtPlotPicker.
void QwtPlotZoomer::setMaxStackDepth (int depth)
Limit the number of recursive zoom operations to depth. A value of -1 set the depth to
unlimited, 0 disables zooming. If the current zoom rectangle is below depth, the plot is
unzoomed.
Parameters:
depth Maximum for the stack depth
See also:
maxStackDepth()
Note:
depth doesn't include the zoom base, so zoomStack().count() might be maxStackDepth() +
1.
void QwtPlotZoomer::setZoomBase (bool doReplot = true) [virtual]
Reinitialized the zoom stack with scaleRect() as base.
Parameters:
doReplot Call QwtPlot::replot() for the attached plot before initializing the zoomer
with its scales. This might be necessary, when the plot is in a state with pending
scale changes.
See also:
zoomBase(), scaleRect() QwtPlot::autoReplot(), QwtPlot::replot().
void QwtPlotZoomer::setZoomBase (const QRectF & base) [virtual]
Set the initial size of the zoomer. base is united with the current scaleRect() and the
zoom stack is reinitialized with it as zoom base. plot is zoomed to scaleRect().
Parameters:
base Zoom base
See also:
zoomBase(), scaleRect()
void QwtPlotZoomer::setZoomStack (const QStack< QRectF > & zoomStack, int zoomRectIndex = -1)
Assign a zoom stack. In combination with other types of navigation it might be useful to
modify to manipulate the complete zoom stack.
Parameters:
zoomStack New zoom stack
zoomRectIndex Index of the current position of zoom stack. In case of -1 the current
position is at the top of the stack.
Note:
The zoomed signal might be emitted.

zoomStack(), zoomRectIndex()
void QwtPlotZoomer::widgetKeyPressEvent (QKeyEvent * ke) [protected], [virtual]
Qt::Key_Plus zooms in, Qt::Key_Minus zooms out one position on the zoom stack,
