Detailed Description

An analog clock.

Example.RS 4

#include <qwt_analog_clock.h>
  QwtAnalogClock *clock = new QwtAnalogClock(...);
  clock->scaleDraw()->setPenWidth(3);
  clock->setLineWidth(6);
  clock->setFrameShadow(QwtDial::Sunken);
  clock->setTime();
  // update the clock every second
  QTimer *timer = new QTimer(clock);
  timer->connect(timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), clock, SLOT(setCurrentTime()));
  timer->start(1000);

Qwt is missing a set of good looking hands. Contributions are very welcome.

Note:
    The examples/dials example shows how to use QwtAnalogClock.

    parent Parent widget

  QwtAnalogClock::~QwtAnalogClock () [virtual]

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

  void QwtAnalogClock::drawHand (QPainter * painter, Hand hd, const QPoint & center, int radius, double direction, QPalette::ColorGroup cg) const [protected, virtual] Draw a clock hand

Parameters:
    painter Painter
    hd Specify the type of hand
    center Center of the clock
    radius Maximum length for the hands
    direction Direction of the hand in degrees, counter clockwise
    cg ColorGroup

  void QwtAnalogClock::drawNeedle (QPainter * painter, const QPoint & center, int radius, double direction, QPalette::ColorGroup cg) const [protected, virtual]

Draw the needle. A clock has no single needle but three hands instead. drawNeedle translates value() into directions for the hands and calls drawHand().

Parameters:
    painter Painter
    center Center of the clock
    radius Maximum length for the hands
    direction Dummy, not used.
    cg ColorGroup

See also:
    drawHand()

Reimplemented from QwtDial.

  QwtDialNeedle * QwtAnalogClock::hand (Hand hd) Returns:
    Clock hand

Parameters:
    hd Specifies the type of hand

See also:
    setHand()

  const QwtDialNeedle * QwtAnalogClock::hand (Hand hd) const Returns:
    Clock hand

Parameters:
    hd Specifies the type of hand

See also:
    setHand()

  QwtText QwtAnalogClock::scaleLabel (double value) const [protected, virtual] Find the scale label for a given value

Parameters:
    value Value

Returns:
    Label

Reimplemented from QwtDial.

  void QwtAnalogClock::setCurrentTime () [slot]

Set the current time. This is the same as QwtAnalogClock::setTime(), but Qt < 3.0 can't handle default parameters for slots.

  void QwtAnalogClock::setHand (Hand hand, QwtDialNeedle * needle) [virtual] Set a clockhand

Parameters:
    hand Specifies the type of hand
    needle Hand

See also:
    hand()

  void QwtAnalogClock::setTime (const QTime & time = QTime::currentTime()) [slot] Set a time

Parameters:
    time Time to display
