/*! \defgroup jkqtplotter JKQTPlotter: Qt based Scientific Plotter Class A Qt based plotter for 2D scientific graphs. Main Plotting widget is JKQTPlotter. \defgroup jkqtpdatastorage Data Storage Classes/System \ingroup jkqtplotter The classes in this group implement a data storage system for use with the main plotter class. Basically a table of data is generated as a set of logical columns that may be bound to different data sources (internal or external memory arrays. Later on it is simply possible to plot graphs using the column number and the not a link to the actual data array, as the link is stored in these classes. \see \ref JKQTPlotterBasicJKQTPDatastore for a detailed description of how to use this class for data management! \defgroup jkqtpexternalinterfaces Interfaces To Other Libraries \ingroup jkqtpdatastorage \defgroup jkqtpinterfaceopencv OpenCV Interfaceing Tools \ingroup jkqtpexternalinterfaces Classes and functions in this group allow JKQTPlotter to directly work with OpenCV data structures. Examples: - \ref JKQTPlotterImagePlotOpenCV - \ref JKQTPlotterImagePlotRGBOpenCV . The OpenCV-binding itself is header-only, and NOT compiled into the JKQtPlotter libraries. Therefore you can simply include the header and use the facilities provided by it. The CMake-build system of JKQtPlotter (and its examples) is compatible with both OpenCV 3.4.x and 4.x and uses the standard `find_package(OpenCV)` facilities provided by OpenCV to compile and bind against that library. If you want to build the OpenCV-based JKQtPlotter examples (see list above), you either have to ensure that CMake finds OpenCV by itself (i.e. somewhere in the default search paths), or you can set the CMake variable `OpenCV_DIR` so it points to the OpenCV directory before configuring JKQtPlotter. \defgroup jkqtpinterfacecimg CImg Interfaceing Tools \ingroup jkqtpexternalinterfaces Classes and functions in this group allow JKQTPlotter to directly work with CImg data structures CImg<T>>. Examples: - \ref JKQTPlotterImagePlotCImg - \ref JKQTPlotterImagePlotRGBCImg . The CImg-binding itself is header-only (as CImg is itself), and NOT compiled into the JKQtPlotter libraries. Therefore you can simply include the header and use the facilities provided by it. The CMake-build system of JKQtPlotter (and its examples) provides facilities to allow for `find_package(CImg)` to compile against that library. If you want to build the CImg-based JKQtPlotter examples (see list above), you either have to ensure that CMake finds CImg by itself (i.e. somewhere in the default search paths, e.g. `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX`), or you can set the CMake variable `CImg_DIR` so it points to the directory of the `CImg.h` file, or before configuring JKQtPlotter. \defgroup jkqtpplottersupprt Support Classes and Functions \ingroup jkqtplotter \defgroup jkqtpplotterclasses Plotter Class & Plotter Widget \ingroup jkqtplotter This group contains the actual plotter classes, that implement layout management code, coordinate system management an actual plotter widget ... There are two main classes: - JKQTBasePlotter is a QObject-derived class that implements all the plotting logic and drawing code. It does not implement a Qt widget though. - JKQTPlotter is a QWidget-based class that contains a JKQTBasePlotter and uses it to draw plots onto a Qt form. . \defgroup jkqtplotter_elements Plot Elements \ingroup jkqtplotter This group assembles all classes that represent different elements of a plot (managed by JKQTBasePlotter/JKQTPlotter). There are these major subgroups: - \ref jkqtpbaseplotter_elements contains all non-graph objects, i.e. things like coordinate axes and so on - \ref jkqtplotter_graphsgroup contains the actual graph classes . \defgroup jkqtpbaseplotter_elements Basic (non-graph) Plot Elements (coordinate axes, ...) \ingroup jkqtplotter_elements This group contains some tool classes that implement basic elements of the plot (coordinate axes, key, ...). These classes are used by JKQTPlotterBase to output the plot. \defgroup jkqtplotter_graphsgroup Graph Classes \ingroup jkqtplotter_elements This group contains all classes in the JKQTPlotter library that may be used to draw a graph (i.e. a curve) onto a plot. \tableofcontents \section jkqtplotter_graphsgroup_classstructure Graph Class Structure \subsection jkqtplotter_graphsgroup_classstructure_basics Graph Classes Each type of graph is represented by another class, which has to be derived from JKQTPPlotElement. This class provides a basic virtual interface that allows JKQTPlotter to draw the graphs represented by them. This interface consists of these functions: - JKQTPPlotElement::draw() draws the graph onto a given JKQTPEnhancedPainter (derived from QPainter) - JKQTPPlotElement::drawKeyMarker() draws the small marker image in the plot legend - JKQTPPlotElement::getKeyLabelColor() returns a color for the legend entry for the graph - JKQTPPlotElement::getXMinMax() returns the extent of the graph in x-direction (e.g. for auto-zooming) - JKQTPPlotElement::getYMinMax() returns the extent of the graph in Y-direction (e.g. for auto-zooming) . In addition to these basic functions, there are additional functions that can be used to draw something outside the actual plot rectangle. These are used to e.g. add color-scales to the side of the graph: - JKQTPPlotElement::getOutsideSize() returns the amount of space required outside the plot rectangle - JKQTPPlotElement::drawOutside() draws the elements outside the plot rectangle . Usually if writing a new graph, one would not directly derive from JKQTPPlotElement, but from a cass in it's hirarchy of children. These children already provide certain facilities for certain types of graphs. \dot digraph { // LATEX_PDF_SIZE bgcolor="transparent"; edge [fontname="FreeSans",fontsize="12",labelfontname="FreeSans",labelfontsize="12"];

A prominent example are the classes for \ref jkqtplotter_basegraphserrors "error indicators". With these there are usually two variants of one type of graph: One without error indicators and one with error indicators, e.g.: - JKQTPXYLineGraph shows lines+symbols graphs made up from x/y-value pairs for each data point. - JKQTPXYLineErrorGraph extends JKQTPXYLineGraph with error indicator drawing/properties provided by JKQTPXYGraphErrors . This approach allows to keep interfaces and appearance recognizeable over different graph classes and locates the source code for a feature like error indicators in a single/in few class(es). Another example of such a class is JKQTPColorPaletteStyleAndToolsMixin, which provides functions that allow to use color palettes. It is mainly used for the \ref jkqtplotter_imagelots "Image/Matrix graphs", but also by e.g. JKQTPXYParametrizedScatterGraph. \defgroup jkqtplotter_basegraphs Baseclasses for Graphs \ingroup jkqtplotter_graphsgroup \defgroup jkqtplotter_basegraphserrors Mix-In Classes for Error Indicators \ingroup jkqtplotter_basegraphs \defgroup jkqtplotter_basegraphs_stylemixins Mix-In Classes for Plot Styling \ingroup jkqtplotter_basegraphs \defgroup jkqtplotter_linesymbolgraphs Line/Symbol Graphs \ingroup jkqtplotter_graphsgroup This group assembles graphs that show their data with symbols and optionally with connecting lines in diferent styles:

\defgroup jkqtpplotter_styling JKQTPlotter Styling System \ingroup jkqtplotter \image html stylesbanner.png JKQTPlotter (and JKQTBasePlotter) offer a styling system, which allows to easily define and transfer plot styling from one object to another. The system is based on a hirarchy of structs, which summarize properties, describing how a plot looks in general. The classes contained in this system are: - JKQTPlotterStyle for JKQTPlotter: Defines e.g. basic user-interactions, the display options of the toolbar - JKQTBasePlotterStyle for JKQTBasePlotter defines the appearance of the plot itself (colors, axis properties, key properties, default graph colors/styles, ...), contains JKQTPCoordinateAxisStyle instances to configrue the plot's coordinate axes - JKQTPCoordinateAxisStyle for JKQTPCoordinateAxis defines the appearance of a coordinate axis (colors, axis properties, ...) - JKQTPKeyStyle for the style of the key/legend in a JKQTBasePlotterStyle . In addition there are static methods that allow to manage a system-wide (actually program-instance wide) style that is applied to any new instance of JKQTPlotter and JKQTBasePlotter on construction: - JKQTPGetSystemDefaultStyle() / JKQTPSetSystemDefaultStyle() allows to access the central instace of JKQTPlotterStyle (mainly properties/style of the GUI-parts and user-action bindings) - JKQTPGetSystemDefaultBaseStyle() / JKQTPSetSystemDefaultBaseStyle() accesses the central instance of JKQTBasePlotterStyle (styles the actual plot/graphs with colors, axes styles, ...) . You can e.g. use these general methods to alter the styles for all JKQTPlotter instances, created in the future: \code{.cpp} // load the system-wide default settings from an INI-file: QSettings plotSettings("JKQTPlotterSettings.ini", QSettings::IniFormat);; JKQTPGetSystemDefaultStyle().loadSettings(plotSettings); JKQTPGetSystemDefaultBaseStyle().loadSettings(plotSettings); // alter a system-wide default setting by hand (here: set color of zooming rect to red) JKQTPGetSystemDefaultStyle().userActionColor=QColor("red"); \endcode Several pre-made styles are available in the JKQTPlotter repository (https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/tree/master/lib/jkqtplotter/resources/styles/). These are also linked into the JKQTPlotter library as Qt ressource into the subdirectory \c :/JKQTPlotter/styles/ . You can use them as follows: \code{.cpp} QSettings plotSettings(":/JKQTPlotter/styles/blackandwhite.ini", QSettings::IniFormat);; JKQTPGetSystemDefaultStyle().loadSettings(plotSettings); JKQTPGetSystemDefaultBaseStyle().loadSettings(plotSettings); \endcode Here is a table with all available ready-made styles:
