# JKQtPlotter
## Line Graph with Logarithmic y-axis
This project (see `./test/jkqtplotter_simpletest_logaxes/`) simply creates a JKQtPlotter widget (as a new window) and several line-graphs of different resonance curves.
The source code of the main application can be found in [`jkqtplotter_simpletest_logaxes.cpp`](https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/blob/master/test/jkqtplotter_simpletest_logaxes/jkqtplotter_simpletest_logaxes.cpp). Mainly several graphs are generated in a loop and then different line styles are applied to the graphs (set by ``graph->set_style()`). The colors are set automtically from an internal default palette. The main loop looks like this:
```c++
QVector<Qt::PenStyle> pens {Qt::SolidLine, Qt::DashLine, Qt::DotLine, Qt::DashDotLine, Qt::DashDotDotLine };
for (int id=0; id<D.size(); id++) {
// generate some plot data
QVector<double> Y;
for (auto& xx: X) {
Y<<1.0/sqrt(sqr(1-sqr(xx))+sqr(2*xx*D[id]));
}
JKQTPxyLineGraph* graph=new JKQTPxyLineGraph(&plot);
// copy data into datastore and immediately set the yColumn
graph->set_xColumn(columnX);
graph->set_yColumn(ds->addCopiedColumn(Y, "y"+QString::number(id)));
// don't use symbols
graph->set_symbol(JKQTPnoSymbol);
// use one of different pens
graph->set_style(pens[id%pens.size()]);
// set width of graph line
graph->set_lineWidth(1.5);
// graph title is made from symbol+penstyle
graph->set_title(QString("D=\\delta/\\omega_0=%1").arg(D[id]));
// add the graph to the plot, so it is actually displayed
plot.addGraph(graph);
}
```
Then a `JKQTPgeoText` is added to the graph, which shows the function plotted in the plot:
```c++
// 4. Also we add a text-element in the plot to show the plotted function
// This element (JKQTPgeoText) is taken from the set of geometric elements
// and is simply parametrized by a position (1.8/10) and the text to display.
// In addition you can also set the font size (here to 15)
plot.addGraph(new JKQTPgeoText(&plot, 1.8, 10, "\\frac{A}{A_{stat}}=\\frac{1}{\\sqrt{\\left(1-\\eta^2\\right)^2+\\left(2{\\eta}D\\right)^2}}", 15));
// for nicer rendering we set the fonts used by the internal LaTeX parser instance to XITS
plot.get_plotter()->get_mathText()->useXITS();
```
Finally the y-axis is switched to logarithmic scaling and the axis labels are set:
```c++
// 4. set y-axis to logarithmic (x-axis would be analogous)
// and set axis labels (using LaTeX notation)
plot.get_yAxis()->set_logAxis(true);
plot.get_yAxis()->set_axisLabel("Amplitude A/A_{stat}");
plot.get_xAxis()->set_axisLabel("relative driving frequency \\eta=\\omega/\\omega_0");
```
The result looks like this:

Without the logarithmic scaling we would have:
