QwtPlotPicker::trackertex for labels in qwtplot problem

[hamid ghous]

Hi Uwe,

I just figured out the problem was for loop so I just removed the loop out of the program and used distance function of vectors to get the index of the value and now its showing me the labels (problem solved)...but as I am showing label on the basis of pixel coordinates so its really hard to see the label cursor has to be on exact pixel coordinates. I am using Xcross as symbol. Is there any way that I can see label whenever cursor comes to the symbol.
Also how can I perform zooming with pixel coordinates?

I really appreciate your help.

Cheers,

I am using Xcross as symbol. Is there any way that I can see label whenever cursor comes to the symbol.

Setting EPS to 0.5 + symbol.size and you will have matches for the bounding rectangle of the cross. If you need exact compares with the shape of a symbol you could paint the symbol on a bitmap translate its center to the mapped curve point and compare the mouse position with the corresponding bit.

Also how can I perform zooming with pixel coordinates?

The only thing that need to be done in pixel coordinates is the point matching algo. I don't see a reason to do anything else in pixel coordinates.

Your code should be like this:

virtual QwtText YourPicker::trackerText(const QPoint &pos) const
{
    QwtText text;
    if ( isNearToACurvePoint(pos) );
        text = QwtPlotPicker::trackerText(pos);
 
    return text;
}

virtual QwtText YourPicker::trackerText(const QPoint &pos) const
{
    QwtText text;
    if ( isNearToACurvePoint(pos) );
        text = QwtPlotPicker::trackerText(pos);

    return text;
}

Thanks Uwe for your help..

Hi Uwe,

Here is what I was trying to say about zooming; I was performing simple zooming by using following code:

I am not after complicated zooming just the simple one.

QwtPlotZoomer *zoomer;
	zoomer= new QwtPlotZoomer(QwtPlot::xBottom,QwtPlot::yRight,myPlot->canvas());
	zoomer->setTrackerMode(QwtPicker::AlwaysOff);

QwtPlotZoomer *zoomer;
	zoomer= new QwtPlotZoomer(QwtPlot::xBottom,QwtPlot::yRight,myPlot->canvas());
	zoomer->setTrackerMode(QwtPicker::AlwaysOff);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

But Now when I zoom in,it doesn't show me the label on the point. Any idea how can I do it...

Regards,

Read this thread and do the same for your zoomer ( QwtPlotZoomer is derived from QwtPlotPicker ).

Where is this thread?

[Uwe]

It starts at the beginning of this page and ends at the bottom - are you serious ?

Oh sorry I thought may be you were saying the thread title is ( QwtPlotZoomer is derived from QwtPlotPicker )
