Detailed Description

The Wheel Widget.

The wheel widget can be used to change values over a very large range in very small steps. Using the setMass member, it can be configured as a flywheel.

Member Function Documentation

void QwtWheel::setInternalBorder ( int w )
 

Set the internal border width of the wheel.

The internal border must not be smaller than 1 and is limited in dependence on the wheel's size. Values outside the allowed range will be clipped.

The internal border defaults to 1.

Parameters:
w   border width

void QwtWheel::setMass ( double val ) [virtual]
 

Set the mass of the wheel.

Assigning a mass turns the wheel into a flywheel.

Parameters:
val   the wheel's mass

Reimplemented from QwtSliderBase.

void QwtWheel::setOrientation ( Orientation o )
 

Set the wheel's orientation.

Parameters:
o   Orientation. Allowed values are QwtWheel::Horizontal and QwtWheel::Vertical. Defaults to QwtWheel::Horizontal.

void QwtWheel::setTickCnt ( int cnt )
 

Adjust the number of grooves in the wheel's surface.

The number of grooves is limited to 6 <= cnt <= 50. Values outside this range will be clipped. The default value is 10.

Parameters:
cnt   Number of grooves per 360 degrees

void QwtWheel::setTotalAngle ( double angle )
 

Set the total angle which the wheel can be turned.

One full turn of the wheel corresponds to an angle of 360 degrees. A total angle of n*360 degrees means that the wheel has to be turned n times around its axis to get from the minimum value to the maximum value.

The default setting of the total angle is 360 degrees.

Parameters:
angle   total angle in degrees

void QwtWheel::setViewAngle ( double angle )
 

Specify the visible portion of the wheel.

You may use this function for fine-tuning the appearance of the wheel. The default value is 175 degrees. The value is limited from 10 to 175 degrees.

Parameters:
angle   Visible angle in degrees
