Detailed Description

       A abstract base class for drawing scales.

       QwtAbstractScaleDraw can be used to draw linear or logarithmic scales.

       After a scale division has been specified as a QwtScaleDiv object using
       QwtAbstractScaleDraw::setScaleDiv(const QwtScaleDiv &s), the scale can be drawn with the
       QwtAbstractScaleDraw::draw() member.

           drawTick(), drawLabel()

       Implemented in QwtRoundScaleDraw, and QwtScaleDraw.

   virtual void QwtAbstractScaleDraw::drawLabel (QPainter *painter, doublevalue) const [protected, pure virtual]
       Draws the label for a major scale tick
       Parameters:
           painter Painter
           value Value

       See also:
           drawTick(), drawBackbone()

       Implemented in QwtRoundScaleDraw, and QwtScaleDraw.

   virtual void QwtAbstractScaleDraw::drawTick (QPainter *painter, doublevalue, doublelen) const [protected,
       pure virtual] Draw a tick
       Parameters:
           painter Painter
           value Value of the tick
           len Lenght of the tick

       See also:
           drawBackbone(), drawLabel()

       Implemented in QwtRoundScaleDraw, and QwtScaleDraw.

   void QwtAbstractScaleDraw::enableComponent (ScaleComponentcomponent, boolenable = true) En/Disable a
       component of the scale
       Parameters:
           component Scale component
           enable On/Off

       See also:
           hasComponent()

   virtual double QwtAbstractScaleDraw::extent (const QFont &) const [pure virtual] Calculate the extent
       The extent is the distcance from the baseline to the outermost pixel of the scale draw in opposite to its
       orientation. It is at least minimumExtent() pixels.

       See also:
           setMinimumExtent(), minimumExtent()

       Implemented in QwtRoundScaleDraw, and QwtScaleDraw.

   bool QwtAbstractScaleDraw::hasComponent (ScaleComponentcomponent) const Check if a component is enabled
       See also:
           enableComponent()

   void QwtAbstractScaleDraw::invalidateCache () [protected] Invalidate the cache used by
       QwtAbstractScaleDraw::tickLabel
       The cache is invalidated, when a new QwtScaleDiv is set. If the labels need to be changed. while the same
       QwtScaleDiv is set, invalidateCache() needs to be called manually.

   QwtText QwtAbstractScaleDraw::label (doublevalue) const [virtual]
       Convert a value into its representing label. The value is converted to a plain text using
       QLocale::system().toString(value). This method is often overloaded by applications to have individual
       labels.

       Parameters:
           value Value

       Returns:
           Label string.

       Reimplemented in QwtDialScaleDraw.

   double QwtAbstractScaleDraw::maxTickLength () const Returns:
           Length of the longest tick

       Useful for layout calculations

       See also:
           tickLength(), setTickLength()

   double QwtAbstractScaleDraw::minimumExtent () const Get the minimum extent
       See also:
           extent(), setMinimumExtent()

   int QwtAbstractScaleDraw::penWidth () const Returns:
           Scale pen width

       See also:
           setPenWidth()

       Reimplemented in QwtDialScaleDraw.

   const QwtScaleDiv & QwtAbstractScaleDraw::scaleDiv () const Returns:
           scale division

   const QwtScaleMap & QwtAbstractScaleDraw::scaleMap () const Returns:
           Map how to translate between scale and pixel values

   QwtScaleMap & QwtAbstractScaleDraw::scaleMap () Returns:
           Map how to translate between scale and pixel values

   void QwtAbstractScaleDraw::setMinimumExtent (doubleminExtent)
       Set a minimum for the extent. The extent is calculated from the coomponents of the scale draw. In
       situations, where the labels are changing and the layout depends on the extent (f.e scrolling a scale),
       setting an upper limit as minimum extent will avoid jumps of the layout.

       Parameters:
           minExtent Minimum extent

       See also:
           extent(), minimumExtent()

   void QwtAbstractScaleDraw::setPenWidth (intwidth)
       Specify the width of the scale pen. Parameters:
           width Pen width

       See also:
           penWidth()

   void QwtAbstractScaleDraw::setScaleDiv (const QwtScaleDiv &sd) Change the scale division
       Parameters:
           sd New scale division

   void QwtAbstractScaleDraw::setSpacing (doublespacing)
       Set the spacing between tick and labels. The spacing is the distance between ticks and labels. The
       default spacing is 4 pixels.

       Parameters:
           spacing Spacing

       See also:
           spacing()

   void QwtAbstractScaleDraw::setTickLength (QwtScaleDiv::TickTypetickType, doublelength) Set the length of the
       ticks
       Parameters:
           tickType Tick type
           length New length

       Warning:
           the length is limited to [0..1000]

   void QwtAbstractScaleDraw::setTransformation (QwtScaleTransformation *transformation) Change the
       transformation of the scale
       Parameters:
           transformation New scale transformation

   double QwtAbstractScaleDraw::spacing () const
       Get the spacing. The spacing is the distance between ticks and labels. The default spacing is 4 pixels.

       See also:
           setSpacing()

   const QwtText & QwtAbstractScaleDraw::tickLabel (const QFont &font, doublevalue) const [protected]
       Convert a value into its representing label and cache it. The conversion between value and label is
       called very often in the layout and painting code. Unfortunately the calculation of the label sizes might
       be slow (really slow for rich text in Qt4), so it's necessary to cache the labels.

       Parameters:
           font Font
           value Value

       Returns:
           Tick label

   double QwtAbstractScaleDraw::tickLength (QwtScaleDiv::TickTypetickType) const Return the length of the ticks
       See also:
           setTickLength(), maxTickLength()
