- NEW: improved plotting speed for line-graphs by a compression algorithm (see JKQTPGraphLinesCompressionMixin) that removes overlaying lines (e.g. in JKQTPXYLineGraph)
- NEW: improved plotting speed for line-graphs by a clipping algorithm (applies to JKQTPXYLineGraph, JKQTPGraphErrorStyleMixin, JKQTPSpecialLineHorizontalGraph, JKQTPSpecialLineVerticalGraph and others)
- NEW: improved plotting speed for scatter-graphs by not calling draw functions for symbols outside the plot window (e.g. in JKQTPXYLineGraph)
- for Qt 5.15: added missing #include statements that became necessary since Qt 5.15
- for Qt 5.15: fixed use of several deprecated functions
- for Qt 5.15/6: removed usage of QMatrix
new: iterator interface and improved documentation for JKQTPDatastore
reorganization of library (better separation of common code in jkqtpcommon and other code e.g. in jkqtplotter or jkqtmathtext)
new: user-interaction tool that measures distances and angles when mouse is dragged, while mouse button is pressed)
update: reworked error indicator base classes and styling settings
update: improved boxplot styling with a separate full-featured pen for the whiskers
- some reorganizations into different files
- additional options for graph filling (color gradients, textures, ...) as provided by QBrush
- PREPARATIONS: added a general feature to JKQTPPlotElement which allows to show a graph in a highlighted state (if supported by the derived graph class!)
- JKQTPXYParametrizedScatterGraph: added functors to transform column values into symbol type+size and line-width to give even more control
- JKQTPStepHorizontalGraph has been renamed to JKQTPSpecialLineHorizontalGraph (vertical variants also) and have gained additional features (baseline for filling and drawing of symbols)
- filled curve graphs (e.g. JKQTPSpecialLineHorizontalGraph) are now merely a specializedly initialized JKQTPSpecialLineHorizontalGraph
- improved documentation
- changed: using static const variables instead of \c #define for fixed default values (e.g. JKQTPImageTools::LUTSIZE, JKQTPImageTools::PALETTE_ICON_WIDTH, JKQTPlotterDrawinTools::ABS_MIN_LINEWIDTH, JKQTMathText::ABS_MIN_LINEWIDTH ...)
- new: added debugging option, which surrounds different regions with visible rectangles (JKQTBasePlotter::enableDebugShowRegionBoxes() )
- fixed: colorbars at top were positioned over the plot label
- new: frames (plot viewport, key/legend ...) may be rounded off at the corners
- new: diverse new styling options (default font name/size ...)
- speed improvements to JKQTMathText::useSTIX()
