Detailed Description

Base class for spline interpolations providing a first order parametric continuity ( C1 ) between adjoining curves.

All interpolations with C1 continuity are based on rules for finding the 1. derivate at some control points.

In case of non parametric splines those points are the curve points, while for parametric splines the calculation is done twice using a parameter value t.

QwtSplineC1::QwtSplineC1 ()

Constructor. The default setting is a non closing spline with no parametrization ( QwtSplineParametrization::ParameterX ).

Member Function Documentation

QVector< QLineF > QwtSplineC1::bezierControlLines (const QPolygonF &points) const [override], [virtual]

Interpolate a curve with Bezier curves. Interpolates a polygon piecewise with cubic Bezier curves and returns the 2 control points of each curve as QLineF.

Parameters

points Control points

Returns

Control points of the interpolating Bezier curves

Implements QwtSplineInterpolating.

Reimplemented in QwtSplineC2, QwtSplineCubic, and QwtSplineLocal.

Definition at line 1101 of file qwt_spline.cpp.

QPolygonF QwtSplineC1::equidistantPolygon (const QPolygonF & points, doubledistance, bool withNodes) const [override], [virtual]

Find an interpolated polygon with "equidistant" points. The implementation is optimzed for non parametric curves ( QwtSplineParametrization::ParameterX ) and falls back to QwtSpline::equidistantPolygon() otherwise.

Parameters

points Control nodes of the spline
distance
Distance between 2 points according to the parametrization
withNodes
When true, also add the control nodes ( even if not being equidistant )

Returns

Interpolating polygon

See also

QwtSpline::equidistantPolygon()

Reimplemented from QwtSplineInterpolating.

Reimplemented in QwtSplineC2.

Definition at line 1167 of file qwt_spline.cpp.

QPainterPath QwtSplineC1::painterPath (const QPolygonF & points) const[override], [virtual]

Calculate an interpolated painter path. Interpolates a polygon piecewise into cubic Bezier curves and returns them as QPainterPath.

The implementation calculates the slopes at the control points and converts them into painter path elements in an additional loop.

Parameters

points Control points

Returns

QPainterPath Painter path, that can be rendered by QPainter

Note

Derived spline classes might overload painterPath() to avoid the extra loops for converting results into a QPainterPath

Reimplemented from QwtSplineInterpolating.

Reimplemented in QwtSplineC2, QwtSplineCubic, and QwtSplineLocal.

Definition at line 1043 of file qwt_spline.cpp.

QVector< QwtSplinePolynomial > QwtSplineC1::polynomials (const QPolygonF &points) const [virtual]

Calculate the interpolating polynomials for a non parametric spline. C1 spline interpolations are based on finding values for the first derivates at the control points. The interpolating polynomials can be calculated from the the first derivates using QwtSplinePolynomial::fromSlopes().

The default implementation is a two pass calculation. In derived classes it might be overloaded by a one pass implementation.

Parameters

points Control points

Returns

Interpolating polynomials

Note

The x coordinates need to be increasing or decreasing

Reimplemented in QwtSplineC2, QwtSplineCubic, and QwtSplineLocal.

Definition at line 1201 of file qwt_spline.cpp.

double QwtSplineC1::slopeAtBeginning (const QPolygonF & points, doubleslopeNext) const [virtual]

Parameters

points Control points
slopeNext
Value of the first derivative at the second point

Returns

value of the first derivative at the first point

slopeAtEnd(), QwtSpline::boundaryCondition(), QwtSpline::boundaryValue()

Definition at line 979 of file qwt_spline.cpp.

double QwtSplineC1::slopeAtEnd (const QPolygonF & points, doubleslopeBefore) const [virtual]

Parameters

points Control points
slopeBefore
Value of the first derivative at the point before the last one

Returns

value of the first derivative at the last point

See also

slopeAtBeginning(), QwtSpline::boundaryCondition(), QwtSpline::boundaryValue()

Definition at line 997 of file qwt_spline.cpp.

virtual QVector< double > QwtSplineC1::slopes (const QPolygonF & points)const [pure virtual]

Find the first derivative at the control points.

Parameters

points Control nodes of the spline

Returns

Vector with the values of the 2nd derivate at the control points

Note

The x coordinates need to be increasing or decreasing

Implemented in QwtSplineC2, QwtSplineCubic, and QwtSplineLocal.
