    Default plotting just the points not an actual curve

    Hello,
    I have a set of (x,y) coordinates.I've inherited from QwtData to override to x() and y() virtual functions. I then use a QwtPlotCurve and I set its data to my data, set the style to Dots.

    How can I make the dots look bolder?

    regards,

    Increase the width of your curve pen or use symbols.

    Thanks. I do this:
    Qt Code:
    1. pc->setStyle(QwtPlotCurve::Dots);
    2. QPen* pen = new QPen( pc->pen() );
    3. pen->setWidth( pen->width()*4 );
    4. pc->setPen(*pen);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    but the dots look just as small as before,

    is this what you meant?

    regards,

    I've tried with different numbers of pixels: 4 8 16 256
    pen->setWidth( 4 ); // and 8 and 16 and 256
    I don't see the dots anymore at all.

    regards,
