## Detailed Description

Canvas of a QwtPlot.

  QwtPlot

## Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtPlotCanvas::FocusIndicator

Focus indicator.

- NoFocusIndicator
  Don't paint a focus indicator

- CanvasFocusIndicator
  The focus is related to the complete canvas. Paint the focus indicator using paintFocus()

- ItemFocusIndicator
  The focus is related to an item (curve, point, ...) on the canvas. It is up to the application to display a focus indication using f.e. highlighting.

See also:
  setFocusIndicator(), focusIndicator(), paintFocus()

enum QwtPlotCanvas::PaintAttribute

Paint attributes.

- PaintCached
  Paint double buffered and reuse the content of the pixmap buffer for some spontaneous repaints that happen when a plot gets unhidden, deiconified or changes the focus. Disabling the cache will improve the performance for incremental paints (using QwtPlotCurve::draw).

- PaintPacked
  Suppress system background repaints and paint it together with the canvas contents. Painting packed might avoid flickering for expensive repaints, when there is a notable gap between painting the background and the plot contents.

The default setting enables PaintCached and PaintPacked

  setPaintAttribute(), testPaintAttribute(), paintCache()
