JKQTPlotter - A Qt Plotting Library

This is an extensive library of function/data plotter classes for Qt (>= 4.7, tested with Qt up to 5.11).

This software is licensed under the term of the GNU Lesser General Public License 2.1 (LGPL 2.1) or above.

Main Features

2D Plotter class (JKQTPlotter)
- high-quality plotting
- no other dependencies than Qt >=4.7 (compatible with Qt 5.xx)
- highly customizable axes/grids (linear/log, date/time, custom ticks ...)
- integrated LaTeX parser (pure C++, no dependencies) to render mathematical equations in axis labels, ticks, ...
- extensive user-interactions pre-programmed (several zooming modes, selecting regions, custom context menus, switch graph visibility, ...)
- full print and export (PDF,PNG,...) support with preview and parametrization out-the-box
- highly customizable look and feel
- supports the Qt layout system for graphs and allows to symchronize several graphs with each other
centralized data management in an internal datastore:
- data organized by columns, can also represent image data (ropw-major)
- allows to reuse a column in several graphs
- access via Qt's model view framework
- external or internal datasets
- complete with GUI (table view)
- export capabilities (e.g. to CSV, SYLK, ...)
- C++ standard iterator interface
- statistics library (basic statistics, boxplots, histograms, kernel density estimates, regression analysis, polynomial fitting)
large variety of graphs that can be added to a plot, e.g.:
- scatter-plots (also parametrized color/size/symbol by a third data-column)
- line graphs, step graphs, impulses
- filled curves
- barcharts (also stacked)
- extensive support for different styles of error indicators
- integrated mathematical function parser for function plots (with intelligent rendering algorithm)
- line/scatter graphs can also be based on C/C++ functions instead of data series (C++11 support!)
- statistical plots (e.g. boxplots)
- extensive library of image plots (inclusing different color-scale modes, RGBA-plots, overlays/masks)
- contour plots
- geometric forms/annotations
- can be easily extended by deriving a new graph from JKQTPPlotElement or JKQTPPlotObject
optional: OpenCV interface
CMake-based build system
extensive set of Examples/Tutorials
extensive doxygen-generated Documentation

Documentation

A Documentation (auto-)generated with doxygen from the trunk source code can be found here: http://jkriege2.github.io/JKQTPlotter/index.html

Documentation is auto-generated after pushes by Travis:

Examples

There is a large set of usage examples (with explanations for each) and tutorials in the folder ./examples/. All test-projects are Qt-projects that use qmake to build. You can load them into QtCreator easily.

Screenshots

The Screenshots-page contains several screenshots, partly taken from the provided examples, but also from other software using this libarary (e.g. QuickFit 3.0)

Building

Simply use CMake, e.g. from QTCreator, or by calling something like:

    $ mkdir build; cd build
    $ cmake ../
    $ make
    $ make install

Building instructions for QMake can be found here:

include necessary files into QMake project: ./lib/*.pri
build a static library: ./qmake/staticlib/*.pro
build a shared library (DLL, SO, ...): ./qmake/sharedlib/*.pro
