\section page_whatsnew_V2019_11 v2019.11: Major rework of the library
Starting in summer 2018, JKQTPlotter received some major workover. During this, it lost compatibility to the QuickFit 3.0 code base.
\subsection page_whatsnew_V2019_11_OVERVIEW v2019.11: Overview
Changes, compared to \ref page_whatsnew_V2018_08 "v2018.08" include:
- new: CMake-base build, which deprecated the QMake-build
- new: added QMake-Projects for static and for shared library builds
- new: \ref exampleTutorialProjects "extensive set of Examples and Tutorials"
- new: checked builds with continuous integration from AppVeyor: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/jkriege2/jkqtplotter/branch/master
- new/update: support for building with Microsoft Visual Studio (Win), MinGW (Win), GCC (Linux/MacOS)
- update: massively improved (doxygen-generated) Online-Documentation (http://jkriege2.github.io/JKQtPlotter/index.html) (automatically generated after each commit using ravis CI)
- update: refactoring of the library's directory structure
- update: refactoring/renaming of API, including the function anming scheme and class names
- changed: using static const variables instead of
#define
for fixed default values (e.g. JKQTPImageTools::LUTSIZE, JKQTPImageTools::PALETTE_ICON_WIDTH, JKQTPlotterDrawinTools::ABS_MIN_LINEWIDTH, JKQTMathText::ABS_MIN_LINEWIDTH ...)
- Updates to JKQTPlotter:
- new: added JKQTPSingleColumnSymbolsGraph for single-column data, e.g. drawn as (random) scatter or bee-swarm or rug plots
- new: stacked barcharts with JKQTPBarVerticalStackableGraph, JKQTPBarHorizontalStackableGraph
- new: use/support of C++11 features (e.g. \c std::function<> and lambda functions in JKQTPXFunctionLineGraph / JKQTPYFunctionLineGraph )
- new: \ref jkqtpinterfaceopencv "optional OpenCV interface"
- new: \ref jkqtpinterfacecimg "optional CImg interface"
- new: \ref jkqtpplotter_styling "Styling System for JKQTPlotter"
- new: added debugging option, which surrounds different regions with visible rectangles (JKQTBasePlotter::enableDebugShowRegionBoxes() )
- new: frames (plot viewport, key/legend ...) may be rounded off at the corners
- new: diverse new styling options (default font name/size ...)
- new: additionl options for styling coordinate axes
- new: Mix-In classes to unify plot styleing functions (setters/getters) in all graphs
- new: additional options for graph filling (color gradients, textures, ...) as provided by QBrush
- new: added a general feature to JKQTPPlotElement which allows to show a graph in a highlighted state (if supported by the derived graph class!)
- new: JKQTPXYParametrizedScatterGraph: added functors to transform column values into symbol type+size and line-width to give even more control
- new: user-interaction tool that shows coordinates of data points near the current mouse position (when mouse is dragged, while mouse button is pressed), see: jkqtpmdaToolTipForClosestDataPoint
- new: user-interaction tool that measures distances and angles when mouse is dragged, while mouse button is pressed), see: jkqtpmdaRuler
- new: advanced styling options for boxplots + example for the styling: \ref JKQTPlotterBoxplotStyling
- new: notched boxplots, see: \ref JKQTPlotterBoxplotStyling
- new: several new plot symbols, see: JKQTPGraphSymbols
- new: Statistics library with functions to calculate histograms, regression, kernel density estimates, ... see: \ref jkqtptools_math_statistics
- new: iterator interface and improved documentation for JKQTPDatastore
- new: violin plots (see \ref JKQTPlotterViolinplotGraphs )
- changed: removed old selection-code and replaced by general highlighting feature
- changed: JKQTPStepHorizontalGraph has been renamed to JKQTPSpecialLineHorizontalGraph (vertical variants also) and have gained additional features (baseline for filling and drawing of symbols)
- changed: filled curve graphs (e.g. JKQTPSpecialLineHorizontalGraph) are now merely a specializedly initialized JKQTPSpecialLineHorizontalGraph
- removed: Removed datarange-feature
- update: \ref JKQTPLOTTER_USERINTERACTION "reworked user interactions API"
- update: \ref jkqtplotter_basegraphserrors "reworked error indicator base classes"
- update: improvements to contour plots (e.g. highlighting single contour levels, split into a class for simple C-arrays [JKQTPContourPlot] and one for image data in a JKQTPDatastore column [JKQTPColumnContourPlot]) + added example, see JKQTPColumnContourPlot and \ref JKQTPlotterContourPlot
- fixed: colorbars at top were positioned over the plot label
- fixed: RGB-image plots now work properly with inverted axes (image is inverted, befor image was not shown at all)
- Updates to JKQTMathText:
- new: slanted fractions (
\\sfrac{}{}
, \\stfrac{}{}
)
- update/fix: several general improvements and bugfixes
- update/fix: improved error handling
- update: updated contained version of STIX fonts, better handling of different STIX versions
- update: improved documentation
