Detailed Description

A class for drawing datetime scales.

QwtDateScaleDraw displays values as datetime labels. The format of the labels depends on the alignment of the major tick labels.

The default format strings are:

Millisecond

"hh:mm:ss:zzz\nddd dd MMM yyyy"

Second

"hh:mm:ss\nddd dd MMM yyyy"

Minute

"hh:mm\nddd dd MMM yyyy"

Hour

"hh:mm\nddd dd MMM yyyy"

Day

"ddd dd MMM yyyy"

Week

"Www yyyy"

Month

"MMM yyyy"

Year

"yyyy"

The format strings can be modified using setDateFormat() or individually for each tick label by overloading dateFormatOfDate(),

Usually QwtDateScaleDraw is used in combination with QwtDateScaleEngine, that calculates scales for datetime intervals.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QwtDateScaleDraw::QwtDateScaleDraw (Qt::TimeSpec timeSpec = Qt::LocalTime)[explicit]

Constructor. The default setting is to display tick labels for the given time specification. The first week of a year is defined like for QwtDate::FirstThursday.

Parameters

timeSpec Time specification

See also

setTimeSpec(), setWeek0Type()

Definition at line 48 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

QwtDateScaleDraw::˜QwtDateScaleDraw () [virtual]

Destructor.

Definition at line 54 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

QString QwtDateScaleDraw::dateFormat (QwtDate::IntervalType intervalType)const

Parameters

intervalType Interval type

Returns

Default format string for an datetime interval type

See also

setDateFormat(), dateFormatOfDate()

Definition at line 152 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

QString QwtDateScaleDraw::dateFormatOfDate (const QDateTime & dateTime,QwtDate::IntervalType intervalType) const [protected], [virtual]

Format string for the representation of a datetime

dateFormatOfDate() is intended to be overloaded for situations, where formats are individual for specific datetime values.

The default setting ignores dateTime and return the default format for the interval type.

Parameters

dateTime Datetime value
intervalType
Interval type

Returns

Format string

See also

setDateFormat(), QwtDate::toString()

Definition at line 180 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

QwtDate::IntervalType QwtDateScaleDraw::intervalType (const QwtScaleDiv &scaleDiv) const [protected], [virtual]

Find the less detailed datetime unit, where no rounding errors happen.

Parameters

scaleDiv Scale division

Returns

Interval type

See also

dateFormatOfDate()

Definition at line 223 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

QwtText QwtDateScaleDraw::label (double value) const [override], [virtual]

Convert a value into its representing label. The value is converted to a datetime value using toDateTime() and converted to a plain text using QwtDate::toString().

Parameters

value Value

Returns

Label string.

See also

dateFormatOfDate()

Reimplemented from QwtAbstractScaleDraw.

Definition at line 205 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

void QwtDateScaleDraw::setDateFormat (QwtDate::IntervalType intervalType,const QString & format)

Set the default format string for an datetime interval type

Parameters

intervalType Interval type
format
Default format string

dateFormat(), dateFormatOfDate(), QwtDate::toString()

Definition at line 137 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

void QwtDateScaleDraw::setTimeSpec (Qt::TimeSpec timeSpec)

Set the time specification used for the tick labels

Parameters

timeSpec Time specification

See also

timeSpec(), setUtcOffset(), toDateTime()

Definition at line 65 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

void QwtDateScaleDraw::setUtcOffset (int seconds)

Set the offset in seconds from Coordinated Universal Time

Parameters

seconds Offset in seconds

Note

The offset has no effect beside for the time specification Qt::OffsetFromUTC.

See also

QDate::utcOffset(), setTimeSpec(), toDateTime()

Definition at line 89 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

void QwtDateScaleDraw::setWeek0Type (QwtDate::Week0Type week0Type)

Sets how to identify the first week of a year.

Parameters

week0Type Mode how to identify the first week of a year

See also

week0Type().

Note

week0Type has no effect beside for intervals classified as QwtDate::Week.

Definition at line 115 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

Qt::TimeSpec QwtDateScaleDraw::timeSpec () const

Returns

Time specification used for the tick labels

See also

setTimeSpec(), utcOffset(), toDateTime()

Definition at line 74 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

QDateTime QwtDateScaleDraw::toDateTime (double value) const

Translate a double value into a QDateTime object.

Returns

QDateTime object initialized with timeSpec() and utcOffset().

timeSpec(), utcOffset(), QwtDate::toDateTime()

Definition at line 269 of file qwt_date_scale_draw.cpp.

int QwtDateScaleDraw::utcOffset () const

Returns

Offset in seconds from Coordinated Universal Time

Note

The offset has no effect beside for the time specification Qt::OffsetFromUTC.
