Detailed Description

An alternative canvas for a QwtPlot derived from QGLWidget. QwtPlotGLCanvas implements the very basics to act as canvas inside of a QwtPlot widget. It might be extended to a full featured alternative to QwtPlotCanvas in a future version of Qwt.

Even if QwtPlotGLCanvas is not derived from QFrame it imitates its API. When using style sheets it supports the box model - beside backgrounds with rounded borders.

    QwtPlot::setCanvas(), QwtPlotCanvas

Note:
    With Qt4 you might want to use the QPaintEngine::OpenGL paint engine ( see QGL::setPreferredPaintEngine() ). On a Linux test system QPaintEngine::OpenGL2 shows very basic problems like translated geometries.

Member Enumeration Documentation

  enum QwtPlotGLCanvas::Shadow

Frame shadow. Unfortunately it is not possible to use QFrame::Shadow as a property of a widget that is not derived from QFrame. The following enum is made for the designer only. It is safe to use QFrame::Shadow instead.

Enumerator

Plain
    QFrame::Plain.

Raised
    QFrame::Raised.

Sunken
    QFrame::Sunken.

  enum QwtPlotGLCanvas::Shape

Frame shape. Unfortunately it is not possible to use QFrame::Shape as a property of a widget that is not derived from QFrame. The following enum is made for the designer only. It is safe to use QFrame::Shadow instead.

Note:
    QFrame::StyledPanel and QFrame::WinPanel are unsupported and will be displayed as QFrame::Panel.
