## Detailed Description

Holds the two-dimensional data of a QCPColorMap plottable.

This class is a data storage for QCPColorMap. It holds a two-dimensional array, which QCPColorMap then displays as a 2D image in the plot, where the array values are represented by a color, depending on the value.

The size of the array can be controlled via setSize (or setKeySize, setValueSize). Which plot coordinates these cells correspond to can be configured with setRange (or setKeyRange, setValueRange).

The data cells can be accessed in two ways: They can be directly addressed by an integer index with setCell. This is the fastest method. Alternatively, they can be addressed by their plot coordinate with setData. plot coordinate to cell index transformations and vice versa are provided by the functions coordToCell and cellToCoord.

This class also buffers the minimum and maximum values that are in the data set, to provide QCPColorMap::rescaleDataRange with the necessary information quickly. Setting a cell to a value that is greater than the current maximum increases this maximum to the new value. However, setting the cell that currently holds the maximum value to a smaller value doesn't decrease the maximum again, because finding the true new maximum would require going through the entire data array, which might be time consuming. The same holds for the data minimum. This functionality is given by recalculateDataBounds, such that you can decide when it is sensible to find the true current minimum and maximum. The method QCPColorMap::rescaleDataRange offers a convenience parameter recalculateDataBounds which may be set to true to automatically call recalculateDataBounds internally.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QCPColorMapData::QCPColorMapData | ( | int | keySize,
|  | int | valueSize,
|  | const QCPRange & | keyRange,
|  | const QCPRange & | valueRange
| ) |  |

Constructs a new QCPColorMapData instance. The instance has keySize cells in the key direction and valueSize cells in the value direction. These cells will be displayed by the QCPColorMap at the coordinates keyRange and valueRange.

QCPColorMapData::QCPColorMapData | ( | const QCPColorMapData & | other | ) |

Constructs a new QCPColorMapData instance copying the data and range of other.

## Member Function Documentation

QCPColorMapData & QCPColorMapData::operator= | ( | const QCPColorMapData & | other | ) |

Overwrites this color map data instance with the data stored in other.

void QCPColorMapData::setSize | ( | int | keySize,
|  | int | valueSize
| ) |  |

Resizes the data array to have keySize cells in the key dimension and valueSize cells in the value dimension.

The current data is discarded and the map cells are set to 0, unless the map had already the requested size.

Setting at least one of keySize or valueSize to zero frees the internal data array and isEmpty returns true.

void QCPColorMapData::setKeySize | ( | int | keySize | ) |

Resizes the data array to have keySize cells in the key dimension.

The current data is discarded and the map cells are set to 0, unless the map had already the requested size.

Setting keySize to zero frees the internal data array and isEmpty returns true.

  setKeyRange, setSize, setValueSize

void QCPColorMapData::setValueSize | ( | int | valueSize | ) |

Resizes the data array to have valueSize cells in the value dimension.

The current data is discarded and the map cells are set to 0, unless the map had already the requested size.

Setting valueSize to zero frees the internal data array and isEmpty returns true.

void QCPColorMapData::setRange | ( | const QCPRange & | keyRange,
|  | const QCPRange & | valueRange
| ) |  |

Sets the coordinate ranges the data shall be distributed over. This defines the rectangular area covered by the color map in plot coordinates.

The outer cells will be centered on the range boundaries given to this function. For example, if the key size (setKeySize) is 3 and keyRange is set to `QCPRange(2, 3)` there will be cells centered on the key coordinates 2, 2.5 and 3.

  setSize

void QCPColorMapData::setKeyRange | ( | const QCPRange & | keyRange | ) |

Sets the coordinate range the data shall be distributed over in the key dimension. Together with the value range, This defines the rectangular area covered by the color map in plot coordinates.

The outer cells will be centered on the range boundaries given to this function. For example, if the key size (setKeySize) is 3 and keyRange is set to `QCPRange(2, 3)` there will be cells centered on the key coordinates 2, 2.5 and 3.

void QCPColorMapData::setValueRange | ( | const QCPRange & | valueRange | ) |

Sets the coordinate range the data shall be distributed over in the value dimension. Together with the key range, This defines the rectangular area covered by the color map in plot coordinates.

The outer cells will be centered on the range boundaries given to this function. For example, if the value size (setValueSize) is 3 and valueRange is set to `QCPRange(2, 3)` there will be cells centered on the value coordinates 2, 2.5 and 3.

void QCPColorMapData::setData | ( | double | key,
|  | double | value,
|  | double | z
| ) |  |

Sets the data of the cell, which lies at the plot coordinates given by key and value, to z.

See Also
  setCell, setRange

void QCPColorMapData::setCell | ( | int | keyIndex,
|  | int | valueIndex,
|  | double | z
| ) |  |

Sets the data of the cell with indices keyIndex and valueIndex to z. The indices enumerate the cells starting from zero, up to the map's size-1 in the respective dimension (see setSize).

In the standard plot configuration (horizontal key axis and vertical value axis, both not range-reversed), the cell with indices (0, 0) is in the bottom left corner and the cell with indices (keySize-1, valueSize-1) is in the top right corner of the color map.

void QCPColorMapData::recalculateDataBounds | ( |  | ) |

Goes through the data and updates the buffered minimum and maximum data values.

Calling this method is only advised if you are about to call QCPColorMap::rescaleDataRange and can not guarantee that the cells holding the maximum or minimum data haven't been overwritten with a smaller or larger value respectively, since the buffered maximum/minimum values have been updated the last time. Why this is the case is explained in the class description (QCPColorMapData).

Note that the method QCPColorMap::rescaleDataRange provides a parameter recalculateDataBounds for convenience. Setting this to true will call this method for you, before doing the rescale.

void QCPColorMapData::clear | ( |  | ) |

Frees the internal data memory.

This is equivalent to calling setSize(0, 0).

void QCPColorMapData::fill | ( | double | z | ) |

Sets all cells to the value z.

bool QCPColorMapData::isEmpty | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Returns whether this instance carries no data. This is equivalent to having a size where at least one of the dimensions is 0 (see setSize).

void QCPColorMapData::coordToCell | ( | double | key,
|  | double | value,
|  | int * | keyIndex,
|  | int * | valueIndex
| ) |  | const

Transforms plot coordinates given by key and value to cell indices of this QCPColorMapData instance. The resulting cell indices are returned via the output parameters keyIndex and valueIndex.

The retrieved key/value cell indices can then be used for example with setCell.

If you are only interested in a key or value index, you may pass 0 as valueIndex or keyIndex.

void QCPColorMapData::cellToCoord | ( | int | keyIndex,
|  | int | valueIndex,
|  | double * | key,
|  | double * | value
| ) |  | const

Transforms cell indices given by keyIndex and valueIndex to cell indices of this QCPColorMapData instance. The resulting coordinates are returned via the output parameters key and value.

If you are only interested in a key or value coordinate, you may pass 0 as key or value.
