Creating Scatter Charts

To create scatter charts, a QScatterSeries instance is needed. Here we create a scatter series instance, and set the type and width of outline for the scatter points.

 
Sélectionnez
QScatterSeries *series0 = new QScatterSeries();
series0->setName("scatter1");
series0->setMarkerShape(QScatterSeries::MarkerShapeCircle);
series0->setMarkerSize(15.0);

QScatterSeries *series1 = new QScatterSeries();
series1->setName("scatter2");
series1->setMarkerShape(QScatterSeries::MarkerShapeRectangle);
series1->setMarkerSize(20.0);

QScatterSeries *series2 = new QScatterSeries();
series2->setName("scatter3");
series2->setMarkerShape(QScatterSeries::MarkerShapeRectangle);
series2->setMarkerSize(30.0);

We add the data to be shown. We can use the append() member function or use the stream operator.

 
Sélectionnez
series0->append(0, 6);
series0->append(2, 4);
series0->append(3, 8);
series0->append(7, 4);
series0->append(10, 5);

*series1 << QPointF(1, 1) << QPointF(3, 3) << QPointF(7, 6) << QPointF(8, 3) << QPointF(10, 2);
*series2 << QPointF(1, 5) << QPointF(4, 6) << QPointF(6, 3) << QPointF(9, 5);

We can define the brush of the scatter series to be an image. Here the image is a star created using QPainterPath.

 
Sélectionnez
QPainterPath starPath;
starPath.moveTo(28, 15);
for (int i = 1; i < 5; ++i) {
    starPath.lineTo(14 + 14 * qCos(0.8 * i * M_PI),
                    15 + 14 * qSin(0.8 * i * M_PI));
}
starPath.closeSubpath();

QImage star(30, 30, QImage::Format_ARGB32);
star.fill(Qt::transparent);

QPainter painter(&star);
painter.setRenderHint(QPainter::Antialiasing);
painter.setPen(QRgb(0xf6a625));
painter.setBrush(painter.pen().color());
painter.drawPath(starPath);

series2->setBrush(star);
series2->setPen(QColor(Qt::transparent));

In the end we enable anti-aliasing, set the chart title, and add the scatter series onto the chart. We also disable drop shadow, because it would not look good on an application with only chart view shown.
