Detailed Description

       QwtPicker provides selections on a widget.

       QwtPicker filters all mouse and keyboard events of a widget and translates them into an
       array of selected points. Depending on the QwtPicker::SelectionType the selection might be
       a single point, a rectangle or a polygon. The selection process is supported by optional
       rubberbands (rubberband selection) and position trackers.

       QwtPicker is useful for widgets where the event handlers can't be overloaded, like for
       components of composite widgets. It offers alternative handlers for mouse and key events.

       Example

           #include <qwt_picker.h>

           QwtPicker *picker = new QwtPicker(widget);
           picker->setTrackerMode(QwtPicker::ActiveOnly);
           connect(picker, SIGNAL(selected(const QwtPolygon &)), ...);

           // emit the position of clicks on widget
           picker->setSelectionFlags(QwtPicker::PointSelection | QwtPicker::ClickSelection);

               ...

           // now select rectangles
           picker->setSelectionFlags(QwtPicker::RectSelection | QwtPicker::DragSelection);
           picker->setRubberBand(QwtPicker::RectRubberBand);

       The selection process uses the commands begin(), append(), move() and end(). append() adds
       a new point to the selection, move() changes the position of the latest point.

       The commands are initiated from a small state machine (QwtPickerMachine) that translates
       mouse and key events. There are a couple of predefined state machines for point, rect and
       polygon selections. The selectionFlags() control which one should be used. It is possible
       to use other machines by overloading stateMachine().

       The picker is active (isActive()), between begin() and end(). In active state the
       rubberband is displayed, and the tracker is visible in case of trackerMode is ActiveOnly
       or AlwaysOn.

       The cursor can be moved using the arrow keys. All selections can be aborted using the
       abort key. (QwtEventPattern::KeyPatternCode)

       Warning:
           In case of QWidget::NoFocus the focus policy of the observed widget is set to
           QWidget::WheelFocus and mouse tracking will be manipulated for ClickSelection while
           the picker is active, or if trackerMode() is AlwayOn.
