## Detailed Description

A spline with C1 continuity.

QwtSplineLocal offers several standard algorithms for interpolating a curve with polynomials having C1 continuity at the control points. All algorithms are local in a sense, that changing one control point only few polynomials.

## Member Enumeration Documentation

## ◆ Type

enum QwtSplineLocal::Type

Spline interpolation type.

All type of spline interpolations are lightweight algorithms calculating the slopes at a point by looking 1 or 2 points back and ahead.

Enumerator
Cardinal | A cardinal spline The cardinal spline interpolation is a very cheap calculation with a locality of 1.
ParabolicBlending | Parabolic blending is a cheap calculation with a locality of 1. Sometimes it is also called Cubic Bessel interpolation.
Akima | The algorithm of H.Akima is a calculation with a locality of 2.
PChip | Piecewise Cubic Hermite Interpolating Polynomial (PCHIP) is an algorithm that is popular because of being offered by MATLAB. It preserves the shape of the data and respects monotonicity. It has a locality of 1.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ bezierControlLines()

QVector< QLineF > QwtSplineLocal::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

Reimplemented from QwtSplineC1.

Definition at line 502 of file qwt_spline_local.cpp.

## ◆ locality()

uint QwtSplineLocal::locality | ( |  | ) | const
| override virtual

The locality of an spline interpolation identifies how many adjacent polynomials are affected, when changing the position of one point.

The Cardinal, ParabolicBlending and PChip algorithms have a locality of 1, while the Akima interpolation has a locality of 2.

Returns
  1 or 2.

Reimplemented from QwtSpline.

Definition at line 552 of file qwt_spline_local.cpp.

## ◆ painterPath()

QPainterPath QwtSplineLocal::painterPath | ( | const QPolygonF & | points | ) | const
| override virtual

Interpolate a curve with Bezier curves.

Interpolates a polygon piecewise with cubic Bezier curves and returns them as QPainterPath.

Parameters

  points | Control points

Returns
  Painter path, that can be rendered by QPainter

Reimplemented from QwtSplineC1.

Definition at line 482 of file qwt_spline_local.cpp.

## ◆ polynomials()

QVector< QwtSplinePolynomial > QwtSplineLocal::polynomials | ( | const QPolygonF & | points | ) | const
| override virtual

Calculate the interpolating polynomials for a non parametric spline.

Parameters

  points | Control points

Returns
  Interpolating polynomials

Note
  The x coordinates need to be increasing or decreasing
  The implementation simply calls QwtSplineC1::polynomials(), but is intended to be replaced by a one pass calculation some day.

Reimplemented from QwtSplineC1.

Definition at line 537 of file qwt_spline_local.cpp.

## ◆ slopes()

QVector< double > QwtSplineLocal::slopes | ( | const QPolygonF & | points | ) | const
| override 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

Implements QwtSplineC1.

Definition at line 521 of file qwt_spline_local.cpp.

## ◆ type()

QwtSplineLocal::Type QwtSplineLocal::type | ( |  | ) | const

Returns
  Spline type, specifying the type of interpolation
