A cartesian chart.
A cartesian chart is a chart that uses X and Y axes. It can display one or multiple data series, which each may be rendered using bars, lines, areas, or points.
To use a cartesian chart, the minimum you need to do is set a model using setModel(), set the model column that holds the X data using setXSeriesColumn(), and add one or more series using addSeries(const WDataSeries&). Each series corresponds to one data column that holds Y data.
A cartesian chart is either a CategoryChart or a ScatterPlot.
In a CategoryChart, the X series represent different categories, which are listed consecutively in model row order. The X axis scale is set to CategoryScale.
A category chart with bar series
Each series may be rendered differently, and this is configured in the data series (see WDataSeries for more information).
In a ScatterPlot, the X series data are interpreted as numbers on a numerical scale. The scale for the X axis defaults to a LinearScale, but this may be changed to a DateScale when the X series contains dates (of type WDate) to create a time series chart, or to a LogScale. A ScatterPlot supports the same types of data series as a CategoryChart, but does not support stacking. In a scatter plot, the X series do not need to be ordered in increasing values.
A time series scatter plot with line series
Missing data in a model series Y values is interpreted as a break. For curve-like series, this breaks the curve (or line). This may also be used to use different X series per Y series in a scatter plot.
The cartesian chart has support for dual Y axes. Each data series may be bound to one of the two Y axes. By default, only the first Y axis is displayed. To show the second Y axis you will need to call:
By default a chart has a horizontal X axis and a vertical Y axis, which corresponds to a Vertical orientation. The orientation may be changed to Horizontal using setOrientation().
The styling of the series data are dictated by a palette which may be set using setPalette(WChartPalette *), but may be overridden by settings in each data series.
Styling through CSS is not applicable.
Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::WCartesianChart | ( | WContainerWidget * | parent = 0 |
) |
Creates a new cartesian chart.
Creates a cartesian chart of type CategoryChart.
Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::WCartesianChart | ( | ChartType | type, | |
WContainerWidget * | parent = 0 | |||
) |
Creates a new cartesian chart.
Creates a cartesian chart of the indicated type.
void Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::addSeries | ( | const WDataSeries & | series | ) |
Adds a data series.
A single chart may display one or more data series. Each data series displays data from a single model column in the chart. Series are plotted in the order that they have been added to the chart.
Accesses a chart axis.
Returns a const reference to the specified axis.
Returns a chart axis.
Returns a reference to the specified axis.
double Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::barMargin | ( | ) | const [inline] |
Returns the margin between bars of different series.
WChart2DRenderer * Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::createRenderer | ( | WPainter & | painter, | |
const WRectF & | rectangle | |||
) | const [protected, virtual] |
Creates a renderer which renders the chart.
The rendering of the chart is delegated to a WChart2DRenderer class, which will render the chart within the rectangle of the painter.
You may want to reimplement this method if you wish to override one or more aspects of the rendering, by returning an new instance of a specialized WChart2DRenderer class.
After rendering, the renderer is deleted.
void Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::drawMarker | ( | const WDataSeries & | series, | |
WPainterPath & | result | |||
) | const [virtual] |
Draws the marker for a given data series.
Draws the marker for the indicated series in the result. This method is called while painting the chart, and you may want to reimplement this method if you wish to provide a custom marker for a particular data series.
Initializes the chart layout.
A cartesian chart delegates the rendering and layout of the chart and its axes to a WChart2DRenderer. As a consequence, the mapping between model and device coordinates is also established by this class, which is only created on-demand when painging.
If you wish to establish the layout, in order to use the mapFromDevice() and mapToDevice() methods before the chart has been rendered, you should call this method.
Unless a specific chart rectangle is specified, the entire widget area is assumed.
bool Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::isLegendEnabled | ( | ) | const [inline] |
Returns whether the legend is enabled.
WPointF Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::mapFromDevice | ( | const WPointF & | point, | |
Axis | ordinateAxis = OrdinateAxis | |||
) | const |
Maps from device coordinates to model coordinates.
Maps a position in the chart back to model coordinates.
This uses the axis dimensions that are based on the latest chart rendering. If you have not yet rendered the chart, or wish to already the mapping reflect model changes since the last rendering, you should call initLayout() first.
WPointF Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::mapToDevice | ( | const boost::any & | xValue, | |
const boost::any & | yValue, | |||
Axis | axis = OrdinateAxis , |
|||
int | xSegment = 0 , |
|||
int | ySegment = 0 | |||
) | const |
Maps model values onto chart coordinates.
This returns the chart device coordinates for a (x,y) pair of model values.
This uses the axis dimensions that are based on the latest chart rendering. If you have not yet rendered the chart, or wish to already the mapping reflect model changes since the last rendering, you should call initLayout() first.
The xSegment
and ySegment
arguments are relevant only when the corresponding axis is broken using WAxis::setBreak(). Then, its possible values may be 0 (below the break) or 1 (above the break).

const WPointF & | pos, | |||
const WDataSeries & | series | |||
) | const [virtual] |
Renders the legend icon for a given data series.
Renders the legend icon for the indicated series in the painter at position pos.
This method is called while rendering a legend item, and you may want to reimplement this method if you wish to provide a custom legend icon for a particular data series.
void Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::renderLegendItem | ( | WPainter & | painter, | |
const WPointF & | pos, | |||
const WDataSeries & | series | |||
) | const [virtual] |
Renders the legend item for a given data series.
Renders the legend item for the indicated series in the painter at position pos. The default implementation draws the marker, and the series description to the right. The series description is taken from the model's header data for that series' data column.
This method is called while painting the chart, and you may want to reimplement this method if you wish to provide a custom marker for a particular data series.
const std::vector<WDataSeries>& Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::series | ( | ) | const [inline] |

Returns a const reference to the first data series that plots data from modelColumn.
WDataSeries & Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::series | ( | int | modelColumn | ) |
Returns a data series corresponding to a data column.
Returns a reference to the first data series that plots data from modelColumn.
void Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::setBarMargin | ( | double | margin | ) |
Sets the margin between bars of different series.
Use this method to change the margin that is set between bars of different series. The margin is specified as a fraction of the width. For example, a value of 0.1 adds a 10% margin between bars of each series. Negative values are also allowed. For example, use a margin of -1 to plot the bars of different series on top of each other.
The default value is 0.
void Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::setLegendEnabled | ( | bool | enabled | ) |
Enables the legend.
If enabled is true, then a default legend is added to the right of the chart. You should provide space for the legend using the setChartPadding() method. Only series for which the legend is enabled or included in this legend (see WDataSeries::isLegendEnabled()).
To have more control over the legend, you could reimplement the renderLegendItem() method to customize how one item in the legend is rendered, or, alternatively you could reimplement the paint() method in which you use the renderLegendItem() method repeatedly to render a legend at an arbitrary position.
The default value is false.
void Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::setOrientation | ( | Orientation | orientation | ) |
Sets the chart orientation.
Sets the chart orientation, which corresponds to the orientation of the Y axis: a Vertical orientation corresponds to the conventional way of a horizontal X axis and vertical Y axis. A Horizontal orientation is the other way around.
The default orientation is Vertical.
void Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::setSeries | ( | const std::vector< WDataSeries > & | series | ) |
Sets all data series.
Replaces the current list of series with the new list.
void Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::setType | ( | ChartType | type | ) |
Sets the chart type.
The chart type determines how (x,y) data are interpreted. In a CategoryChart, the X values are categories, and these are plotted consecutively, evenly spaced, and in row order. In a ScatterPlot, the X values are interpreted numerically (as for Y values).
The default chart type is a CategoryChart.
void Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::setXSeriesColumn | ( | int | modelColumn | ) |
Sets the the model column for the X series.
Use this method to specify the data for the X series. For a ScatterPlot this is mandatory, while for a CategoryChart, if not specified, an increasing series of integer numbers will be used (1, 2, ...).
The default value is -1 (not specified).
ChartType Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::type | ( | ) | const [inline] |
Returns the chart type.
int Wt::Chart::WCartesianChart::XSeriesColumn | ( | ) | const [inline] |
Returns the model column for the X series.
