## Detailed Description

A plot item, which displays a spectrogram.

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

In ContourMode contour lines are painted for the contour levels.

See also:
  QwtRasterData, QwtColorMap

## Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtPlotSpectrogram::DisplayMode

The display mode controls how the raster data will be represented.

- ImageMode
  The values are mapped to colors using a color map.
- ContourMode
  The data is displayed using contour lines

When both modes are enabled the contour lines are painted on top of the spectrogram. The default setting enables ImageMode.

  setDisplayMode(), testDisplayMode()

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

The z value is initialized by 8.0.

See also:
  setColorMap()

QwtValueList QwtPlotSpectrogram::contourLevels | ( |  | ) | const

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

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()

QSize QwtPlotSpectrogram::contourRasterSize | ( | const QwtDoubleRect & | area,
|  | const QRect & | rect |
| ) |  |  | const`[protected, virtual]`

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

A larger size will improve the precisision 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 data().rasterHint().

Parameters:

  | area | Rect, where to calculate the contour lines
  | rect | Rect 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().

Returns:
  data().rasterHint(rect)

Reimplemented from QwtPlotRasterItem.

QwtRasterData::ContourLines QwtPlotSpectrogram::renderContourLines | ( | const QwtDoubleRect & | rect,
