Detailed Description

Abstract base class for data display.

Library: ilvcharts

This abstract class defines a given type of graphical representation of data that is used within a chart. For example, data can be represented by markers, by polylines, and so on.

Each type of graphical representation of data is displayed within a chart by an instance of a derived class of IlvAbstractChartDisplayer. These objects that allow you to represent data in a specific way are commonly called displayers.

The displayers are divided into two categories:

displayers that display data with a single basic rendering shape. For example, these are the displayers representing data with markers, polylines, bars, and so on.

These displayers are all instances of subclasses of the IlvSingleChartDisplayer class, which is a subclass of IlvAbstractChartDisplayer.
displayers that display data with a composition of several rendering shapes, thus allowing you to represent more complex graphical representations of data. For example, these displayers represent data with stacked bars or with stock charts. The stacked-bar displayer (see the IlvStackedBarChartDisplayer class) is composed of several single displayers that represent data with bars (see the IlvBarChartDisplayer class). The stock-chart displayer (see the IlvHiLoOpenCloseChartDisplayer class) is composed of a single displayer that represents data with a high-low chart (see the IlvHiLoChartDisplayer class) and a single displayer that displays data with a high-low bar chart (see the IlvHiLoBarChartDisplayer class).

These displayers are all instances of subclasses of the IlvCompositeChartDisplayer class, which is a subclass of IlvAbstractChartDisplayer. They are defined as a composition of other displayers that can be single or composite displayers.

A displayer can be used to display one or several data sets, depending on the type of the displayer. (See the IlvChartDataSet class for details about the data sets.) For example, a displayer that displays data with bars displays a unique data set, and a displayer that displays data with a high-low chart displays at least two data sets. For a given displayer, there are two kinds of data sets:

The real data sets are the data sets to be displayed with this displayer and that are set on this displayer. These data sets are stored in the object managing data sets that is set on the chart using this displayer.
The virtual data sets are the data sets constructed just for the needs of the drawing from the real data sets that are to be displayed with the current displayer.

Virtual data sets are not constructed in each displayer. Virtual data sets are constructed only in displayer types that cannot directly display the real data sets to be displayed but that need to put the data into another format before being able to display them. This is the case, for example, for the pie displayer that needs a specific virtual data set to internally transform the data set into a set of angle values that will then be displayed by the pie displayer.

The virtual data sets that are constructed inside the displayers are defined as a combination of the real data sets. (See the IlvCombinedChartDataSet class for more details.)

If virtual data sets are defined for a given displayer, these data sets, constructed from the real data sets that are set on the displayer, will be displayed by the displayer. Otherwise, the displayer will directly display the real data sets that are set on it.

The current class stores a pointer to the chart graphic that uses it to display data and a pointer to a possible parent displayer. For a given displayer, the parent displayer corresponds to the composite displayer that uses this displayer if the displayer is used by a composite displayer.

◆ draw()

virtual void IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::draw	(	IlvPort *	dst,
		const IlvTransformer *	t = `0`,
		const IlvRegion *	clip = `0`
	)		const

pure virtual

Draws the graphical representation of data.

	)		const

pure virtual

Draws the graphical representation of the data point(s) at a given index.

Draws the graphical representation of the data point(s) at the index dataPtIdx in the data set(s) to be displayed by the current displayer. The drawing is performed in the port dst using the transformer t, and the clipping region clip.

Parameters

dataPtIdx	The index of the data point(s) to draw.
dst	The port used for the drawing.
t	The optional transformer.
clip	The optional clipping region.

Implemented in IlvCompositeChartDisplayer, and IlvSingleChartDisplayer.

◆ drawDataPoints()

		const IlvTransformer *	t = `0`,
		const IlvRegion *	clip = `0`
	)		const

pure virtual

Draws the graphical representation of the data points between a given interval.

Draws the graphical representation of the data points between the indexes iMin and iMax in the data set(s) to be displayed by the current displayer. The drawing is performed in the port dst using the transformer t and the clipping region clip.

Parameters

iMin	The minimum index used to select the data points to draw.
iMax	The maximum index used to select the data points to draw.
dst	The port used for the drawing.
t	The optional transformer.
clip	The optional clipping region.

Note: For handling the needs of chart drawing, iMin is decreased by 1 and iMax is increased by 1 before selecting the data points whenever possible. This ensures continuity when drawing the chart, especially when polylines are used.

Warning: This method is simplified for performance reasons and does not work if the data have to be shifted by the cycle length before being displayed. If the data must be shifted, you have to use the IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::drawDataPoint() method, which works for all cases.

Implemented in IlvCompositeChartDisplayer, and IlvSingleChartDisplayer.

◆ drawFill()

virtual void IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::drawFill ( IlBoolean b )

pure virtual

Sets the filling mode of the displayer.

This method tells the displayer whether the shape to render must be filled (using the background color of the palette) or simply outlined. In the case of a composite displayer, the new mode is propagated to all the child displayers.

Parameters

b	The new value of the Boolean indicating if the shape is to be filled (`IlTrue`) or only outlined (`IlFalse`).

Implemented in IlvCompositeChartDisplayer, and IlvSingleChartDisplayer.

◆ drawLegendItem()

virtual void IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::drawLegendItem	(	IlvPort *	dst,

		IlvPalette *	itemPal,
		const IlvRegion *	clip,
		IlAny	clientData = `0`
	)		const

pure virtual

Draws the graphic part of a legend item associated with the current displayer.

The drawing is performed in the port dst using the clipping region clip. It is bounded by the rectangle legendArea.

Parameters

dst	The port used for the drawing.
legendArea	The area where the drawing is performed.
itemPal	The palette of the legend item associated with the current displayer.
clip	The optional clipping region.

◆ getBackground()

virtual IlvColor* IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::getBackground ( IlUInt index = 0 ) const

pure virtual

Returns the background color of a palette used by the current displayer to display data.

If the current displayer is a single displayer (that is, an object inherited from the IlvSingleChartDisplayer class), this method just returns the background color of the palette stored inside the displayer. If the current displayer is a composite displayer (that is, an object inherited from the IlvCompositeChartDisplayer class), this method returns the background color of the palette used by the displayer at the index index in the collection of displayers that compose the current displayer.

Parameters

index If the current displayer is a composite displayer, this parameter indicates the index of the displayer within the displayers that compose the current displayer. Otherwise, this parameter can be omitted.

Returns: A pointer to the background color.

Implemented in IlvCompositeChartDisplayer, and IlvSingleChartDisplayer.

◆ getChartGraphic()

◆ getDataSet()

IlvChartDataSet* IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::getDataSet ( IlUInt index = 0 ) const

Returns a data set used by the current displayer.

The returned data set corresponds to the data set at the index index among the virtual data sets if the current displayer uses virtual data sets. (See the IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::useVirtualDataSets() method.) Otherwise, it corresponds to the data set at the index index among the real data sets to be displayed by the current displayer.

Parameters

index The index of the returned data set.

Returns: A pointer to the returned data set.

◆ getDataSetsCount()

IlUInt IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::getDataSetsCount ( ) const

Returns the number of data sets used by the current displayer.

This number of data sets corresponds to the number of virtual data sets if the current displayer uses virtual data sets. (See the IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::useVirtualDataSets() method.) Otherwise, it corresponds to the number of real data sets to be displayed by the current displayer.

Returns: The number of data sets used by the current displayer.

◆ getDisplayItem()

virtual IlUInt IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::getDisplayItem	(	IlvChartDataSet *&	dataSet,
		const IlvPoint &	viewPoint,
		const IlvTransformer *	t
	)		const

pure virtual

Returns the item to which a view point corresponds.

Returns the index of the data point in the data set dataSet displayed by the current displayer that has its corresponding representation colliding with the point viewPoint. The returned index is equal to IlvBadIndex if no data point has been found. If the data set dataSet passed as a parameter is equal to 0, the nearest data point is searched for in all the data sets displayed by the current displayer. Otherwise, it is searched for in the data set dataSet. At the end, dataSet references the data set in which the data point has been found or 0 if no data set has been found. If no point has been found in a data set, dataSet is also equal to 0.

Parameters

dataSet	The data set from which a data point is retrieved.
viewPoint	The point in screen coordinates for which we want to get the nearest displayed data point.
t	The optional transformer.

Returns: The index of the nearest data point that has been found.

This text, if it is defined, is used in a legend as comments for the data represented by the current displayer. (See the IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::getLegendText() method.) If the current displayer is a single displayer (that is, an object inherited from the IlvSingleChartDisplayer class), this method just returns the legend text stored inside the displayer. If the current displayer is a composite displayer (that is, an object inherited from the IlvCompositeChartDisplayer class), this method returns the legend text stored for the displayer at the index index in the collection of displayers that compose the current displayer.

Parameters

index If the current displayer is a composite displayer, this parameter indicates the index of the displayer within the displayers that compose the current displayer. Otherwise, this parameter can be omitted.

Returns: The legend text that is stored.

Implemented in IlvCompositeChartDisplayer, and IlvSingleChartDisplayer.

If a point information collection has been defined to be used by the current displayer to display the considered data set, this method returns the point information that is managed by this point information collection. If no such point information collection has been defined, this method returns the point information that is managed by the point information collection that has directly been set on the considered data set (by using the IlvChartDataSet::setPointInfoCollection() method) if this point information collection exists.

Parameters

dataPtIdx	The index of the data point for which we want to get the point information.
dataSet	The data set to which the data point belongs.

Returns: A pointer to the point information associated with the considered data point.

Note: The returned point information will be used by the current displayer to display the data point with which it is associated.

dataSet	The data set to insert.
index	The index at which the data set must be inserted.

◆ isContinuous()

virtual IlBoolean IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::isContinuous ( ) const

virtual

Indicates whether the graphical representation is continuous.

The graphical representation of data displayed by a displayer is continuous if the graphical representation displayed for a given data point extends to and relies on another data point. So it is continuous if a given data point is not sufficient to display the graphical representation for this data point. For example, the graphical representation of data by a polyline is continuous since it requires the given data point and the following data point to be able to draw the graphical representation for a given data point. On the other hand, the graphical representation of data by markers is not continuous.

This method returns IlTrue if the current displayer is continuous and IlFalse otherwise.

Returns: IlFalse by default.

Reimplemented in IlvStepChartDisplayer, IlvPolylineChartDisplayer, IlvPieChartDisplayer, IlvHiLoChartDisplayer, and IlvCompositeChartDisplayer.

◆ isFilled()

virtual IlBoolean IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::isFilled ( ) const

virtual

Indicates whether the graphical representation is filled.

A graphical representation is filled for a given data point if it is not only located around this data point but also if it extends towards the origin. This is the case, for example, for displayers representing data with bars. A bar begins at the data point position and is drawn to the abscissa scale in Cartesian charts and to the center of the data display area in polar charts.

This method returns IlTrue if the graphical representation displayed by the current displayer is filled and IlFalse otherwise.

Returns: IlFalse by default.

Reimplemented in IlvStairChartDisplayer, IlvPolygonChartDisplayer, IlvHiLoChartDisplayer, IlvCompositeChartDisplayer, and IlvBarChartDisplayer.

◆ isViewable()

virtual IlBoolean IlvAbstractChartDisplayer::isViewable ( ) const

virtual

Indicates whether the graphical representation can be viewed.

The graphical representation displayed by the current displayer can be viewed if and only if all the elements required to be able to display this graphical representation are verified.
