Detailed Description
The QPointF class defines a point in the plane using floating point precision.
A point is specified by a x coordinate and an y coordinate which can be accessed using the x() and y() functions. The coordinates of the point are specified using floating point numbers for accuracy. The isNull() function returns true if both x and y are set to 0.0. The coordinates can be set (or altered) using the setX() and setY() functions, or alternatively the rx() and ry() functions which return references to the coordinates (allowing direct manipulation).
Given a point p, the following statements are all equivalent:
QPointF p;
p.setX(p.x() + 1.0);
p += QPoint(1.0, 0.0);
p.rx()++;
A QPointF object can also be used as a vector: Addition and subtraction are defined as for vectors (each component is added separately). A QPointF object can also be divided or multiplied by an int or a qreal.
In addition, the QPointF class provides a constructor converting a QPoint object into a QPointF object, and a corresponding toPoint() function which returns a QPoint copy of this point. Finally, QPointF objects can be streamed as well as compared.
See also QPoint and QPolygonF.
Member Function Documentation
QPointF::QPointF ()
Constructs a null point, i.e. with coordinates (0.0, 0.0)
See also isNull().
QPointF::QPointF ( const QPoint & point )
Constructs a copy of the given point.
See also toPoint().
QPointF::QPointF ( qreal x, qreal y )
Constructs a point with the given coordinates (x, y).
See also setX() and setY().
bool QPointF::isNull () const
Returns true if both the x and y coordinates are set to 0.0, otherwise returns false.
qreal & QPointF::rx ()
Returns a reference to the x coordinate of this point.
Using a reference makes it possible to directly manipulate x. For example:
QPoint p(1.1, 2.5);
p.rx()--; // p becomes (0.1, 2.5)
See also x() and setX().
qreal & QPointF::ry ()
Returns a reference to the y coordinate of this point.
Using a reference makes it possible to directly manipulate y. For example:
QPoint p(1.1, 2.5);
p.ry()++; // p becomes (1.1, 3.5)
See also y() and setY().
void QPointF::setX ( qreal x )
Sets the x coordinate of this point to the given x coordinate.
See also x() and setY().
void QPointF::setY ( qreal y )
Sets the y coordinate of this point to the given y coordinate.
See also y() and setX().
QPoint QPointF::toPoint () const
Rounds the coordinates of this point to the nearest integer, and returns a QPoint object with the rounded coordinates.
See also QPointF().
qreal QPointF::x () const
Returns the x-coordinate of this point.
See also setX() and rx().
qreal QPointF::y () const
Returns the y-coordinate of this point.
See also setY() and ry().
QPointF & QPointF::operator*= ( qreal factor )
Multiplies this point's coordinates by the given factor, and returns a reference to this point. For example:
QPoint p(-1.1, 4.1);
p *= 2.5; // p becomes (-2.75,10.25)
See also operator/=().
QPointF & QPointF::operator+= ( const QPointF & point )
Adds the given point to this point and returns a reference to this point. For example:
QPoint p( 3.1, 7.1);
QPoint q(-1.0, 4.1);
p += q; // p becomes (2.1, 11.2)
See also operator-=().
QPointF & QPointF::operator-= ( const QPointF & point )
Subtracts the given point from this point and returns a reference to this point. For example:
QPoint p( 3.1, 7.1);
QPoint q(-1.0, 4.1);
p -= q; // p becomes (4.1, 3.0)
See also operator+=().
QPointF & QPointF::operator/= ( qreal divisor )
Divides both x and y by the given divisor, and returns a reference to this point. For example:
QPoint p(-2.75, 10.25);
p /= 2.5; // p becomes (-1.1,4.1)
See also operator*=().
