## Detailed Description

QwtPlotHistogram represents a series of samples, where an interval is associated with a value ( ).

The representation depends on the style() and an optional symbol() that is displayed for each interval.

Note
  The term "histogram" is used in a different way in the areas of digital image processing and statistics. Wikipedia introduces the terms "image histogram" and "color histogram" to avoid confusions. While "image histograms" can be displayed by a QwtPlotCurve there is no applicable plot item for a "color histogram" yet.

## Member Enumeration Documentation

## ◆ HistogramStyle

enum QwtPlotHistogram::HistogramStyle

Histogram styles. The default style is QwtPlotHistogram::Columns.

See also
  setStyle(), style(), setSymbol(), symbol(), setBaseline()

Enumerator
Outline | Draw an outline around the area, that is build by all intervals using the pen() and fill it with the brush(). The outline style requires, that the intervals are in increasing order and not overlapping.
Columns | Draw a column for each interval. When a symbol() has been set the symbol is used otherwise the column is displayed as plain rectangle using pen() and brush().
Lines | Draw a simple line using the pen() for each interval.
UserStyle | Styles >= UserStyle are reserved for derived classes that overload drawSeries() with additional application specific ways to display a histogram.

Each column representing an QwtIntervalSample is defined by its interval and the interval between baseline and the value of the sample.

The default value of the baseline is 0.0.

Parameters

  value | Value of the baseline

See also
  baseline()

Definition at line 240 of file qwt_plot_histogram.cpp.

## ◆ setBrush()

void QwtPlotHistogram::setBrush | ( | const QBrush & | brush | ) |

Assign a brush, that is used in a style() depending way.

Parameters

  brush | New brush

See also
  pen(), brush()

Definition at line 174 of file qwt_plot_histogram.cpp.

## ◆ setPen() [1/2]

void QwtPlotHistogram::setPen | ( | const QColor & | color,
|  | qreal | width = 0.0,
|  | Qt::PenStyle | style = Qt::SolidLine )

Build and assign a pen

In Qt5 the default pen width is 1.0 ( 0.0 in Qt4 ) what makes it non cosmetic ( see QPen::isCosmetic() ). This method has been introduced to hide this incompatibility.

Parameters

  color | Pen color
  width | Pen width
  style | Pen style

See also
  pen(), brush()

Definition at line 137 of file qwt_plot_histogram.cpp.

## ◆ setPen() [2/2]

Assign a pen, that is used in a style() depending way.

Parameters

  pen | New pen

See also
  pen(), brush()

Definition at line 148 of file qwt_plot_histogram.cpp.

## ◆ setSamples() [1/2]

void QwtPlotHistogram::setSamples | ( | const QVector< QwtIntervalSample > & | samples | ) |

Initialize data with an array of samples.

Parameters

  samples | Vector of points

Definition at line 299 of file qwt_plot_histogram.cpp.

## ◆ setSamples() [2/2]

void QwtPlotHistogram::setSamples | ( | QwtSeriesData< QwtIntervalSample > * | data | ) |

Assign a series of samples

setSamples() is just a wrapper for setData() without any additional value - beside that it is easier to find for the developer.

Parameters

  data | Data

Warning
  The item takes ownership of the data object, deleting it when its not used anymore.

Definition at line 315 of file qwt_plot_histogram.cpp.

## ◆ setStyle()

void QwtPlotHistogram::setStyle | ( | HistogramStyle | style | ) |

Set the histogram's drawing style

Parameters

  style | Histogram style

See also
  HistogramStyle, style()

Definition at line 104 of file qwt_plot_histogram.cpp.

## ◆ setSymbol()

void QwtPlotHistogram::setSymbol | ( | const QwtColumnSymbol * | symbol | ) |

Assign a symbol.

In Column style an optional symbol can be assigned, that is responsible for displaying the rectangle that is defined by the interval and the distance between baseline() and value. When no symbol has been defined the area is displayed as plain rectangle using pen() and brush().

See also
  style(), symbol(), drawColumn(), pen(), brush()

Note
  In applications, where different intervals need to be displayed in a different way ( f.e different colors or even using different symbols) it is recommended to overload drawColumn().

Definition at line 208 of file qwt_plot_histogram.cpp.

## ◆ style()

QwtPlotHistogram::HistogramStyle QwtPlotHistogram::style | ( |  | ) | const

Returns
  Style of the histogram

  Current symbol or NULL, when no symbol has been assigned

See also
  setSymbol()
