## Detailed Description

A plot item, which displays a spectrogram.

A spectrogram displays 3-dimensional data, where the 3rd dimension ( the intensity ) is displayed using colors. The colors are calculated from the values using a color map.

On multi-core systems the performance of the image composition can often be improved by dividing the area into tiles - each of them rendered in a different thread ( see QwtPlotItem::setRenderThreadCount() ).

In ContourMode contour lines are painted for the contour levels.

## Member Enumeration Documentation

Enumerator

explicit

Sets the following item attributes:

- QwtPlotItem::AutoScale: true
- QwtPlotItem::Legend: false

The z value is initialized by 8.0.

Parameters

See also
  setColorMap()

## ◆ contourLevels()

QList< double > QwtPlotSpectrogram::contourLevels | ( |  | ) | const

Returns
  Levels of the contour lines.

The levels are sorted in increasing order.

See also
  contourLevels(), renderContourLines(), QwtRasterData::contourLines()

## ◆ contourPen()

QPen QwtPlotSpectrogram::contourPen | ( | double | level | ) | const

virtual

Calculate the pen for a contour line.

The color of the pen is the color for level calculated by the color map

Parameters

  level | Contour level

Returns
  Pen for the contour line

Note
  contourPen is only used if defaultContourPen().style() == Qt::NoPen

See also
  setDefaultContourPen(), setColorMap(), setContourLevels()

## ◆ contourRasterSize()

QSize QwtPlotSpectrogram::contourRasterSize | ( | const QRectF & | area,

Return the raster to be used by the CONREC contour algorithm.

A larger size will improve the precision of the CONREC algorithm, but will slow down the time that is needed to calculate the lines.

The default implementation returns rect.size() / 2 bounded to the resolution depending on pixelSize().

Parameters

  area | Rectangle, where to calculate the contour lines
  rect | Rectangle in pixel coordinates, where to paint the contour lines

Returns
  Raster to be used by the CONREC contour algorithm.

Note
  The size will be bounded to rect.size().

|  | Qt::PenStyle | style = `Qt::SolidLine`
| ) |  |

Build and assign the default pen for the contour lines

In Qt5 the default pen width is 1.0 ( 0.0 in Qt4 ) what makes it non cosmetic ( see QPen::isCosmetic() ). This method has been introduced to hide this incompatibility.

See also
  pen(), brush()

## ◆ setDefaultContourPen() [2/2]

void QwtPlotSpectrogram::setDefaultContourPen | ( | const QPen & | pen | ) |

Set the default pen for the contour lines.

If the spectrogram has a valid default contour pen a contour line is painted using the default contour pen. Otherwise (pen.style() == Qt::NoPen) the pen is calculated for each contour level using contourPen().

See also
  defaultContourPen(), contourPen()

## ◆ setDisplayMode()
