Detailed Description
The QAreaSeries class is used for making area charts.
An area series is used to show quantitative data. It is based on line series, in the way that the area between the boundary lines is emphasized with color. Since the area series is based on line series, QAreaSeries constructor needs a QLineSeries instance, which defines "upper" boundary of the area. The area chart is drawn using the bottom of the plot area as the "lower" boundary by default. Instead of the bottom of the plot area, the "lower" boundary can be specified by another line. In that case QAreaSeries should be initialized with two QLineSeries instances. Please note that the terms "upper" and "lower" boundary can be misleading in cases where the "lower" boundary has bigger values than the "upper" one. The main point is that the area between these two boundary lines will be filled.
See the area chart example to learn how to create a simple area chart.
Property Documentation
borderColor : QColor
Line (pen) color of the series. This is a convenience property for modifying the color of pen.
Access functions:
QColor | borderColor() const |
void | setBorderColor(const QColor &color) |
Notifier signal:
void | borderColorChanged(QColor color) |
See also QAreaSeries::pen().
color : QColor
Fill (brush) color of the series. This is a convenience property for modifying the color of brush.
Access functions:
QColor | color() const |
void | setColor(const QColor &color) |
Notifier signal:
void | colorChanged(QColor color) |
See also QAreaSeries::brush().
lowerSeries : QLineSeries * const
The lower one of the two line series used to define are series boundaries. Note if QAreaSeries was constructed without a lowerSeries this is null.
Access functions:
QLineSeries * | lowerSeries() const |
pointLabelsClipping : bool
Defines the clipping for data point labels. True by default. The labels on the edge of the plot area are cut when clipping is enabled.
Access functions:
bool | pointLabelsClipping() const |
void | setPointLabelsClipping(bool enabled = true) |
Notifier signal:
void | pointLabelsClippingChanged(bool clipping) |
See also pointLabelsVisible.
pointLabelsColor : QColor
Defines the color used for data point labels. By default, the color is the color of the brush defined in theme for labels.
Access functions:
QColor | pointLabelsColor() const |
void | setPointLabelsColor(const QColor &color) |
Notifier signal:
void | pointLabelsColorChanged(const QColor &color) |
See also QAreaSeries::pointLabelsFormat.
pointLabelsFont : QFont
Defines the font used for data point labels.
Access functions:
QFont | pointLabelsFont() const |
void | setPointLabelsFont(const QFont &font) |
Notifier signal:
void | pointLabelsFontChanged(const QFont &font) |
See also QAreaSeries::pointLabelsFormat.
pointLabelsFormat : QString
The format used for showing labels with series points.
QAreaSeries supports the following format tags:
@xPoint | The x value of the data point |
@yPoint | The y value of the data point |
For example, the following usage of the format tags would produce labels that have the data point (x, y) shown inside brackets separated by a comma:
series->setPointLabelsFormat("(@xPoint, @yPoint)");
By default, the labels format is set to '@xPoint, @yPoint'. The labels are shown on the plot area, labels on the edge of the plot area are cut. If the points are close to each other the labels may overlap.
Access functions:
QString | pointLabelsFormat() const |
void | setPointLabelsFormat(const QString &format) |
Notifier signal:
void | pointLabelsFormatChanged(const QString &format) |
See also QAreaSeries::pointLabelsVisible, QAreaSeries::pointLabelsFont, and QAreaSeries::pointLabelsColor.
pointLabelsVisible : bool
Defines the visibility for data point labels. False by default.
Access functions:
bool | pointLabelsVisible() const |
void | setPointLabelsVisible(bool visible = true) |
Notifier signal:
void | pointLabelsVisibilityChanged(bool visible) |
See also QAreaSeries::pointLabelsFormat and QAreaSeries::pointLabelsClipping.
upperSeries : QLineSeries * const
This property holds the upper one of the two line series used to define area series boundaries.
Access functions:
QLineSeries * | upperSeries() const |
Member Function Documentation
QAreaSeries::QAreaSeries(QObject *parent = Q_NULLPTR)
Constructs area series object without upper or lower series with parent object.
QAreaSeries::QAreaSeries(QLineSeries *upperSeries, QLineSeries *lowerSeries = Q_NULLPTR)
Constructs area series object which is a child of upperSeries. Area will be spanned between upperSeries line and lowerSeries line. If no lowerSeries is passed to constructor, area is specified by axis x (y=0) instead. When series object is added to QChartView or QChart instance ownerships is transferred.
QAreaSeries::~QAreaSeries()
Destroys the object.
[signal]
void QAreaSeries::borderColorChanged(QColor color)
Signal is emitted when the line (pen) color has changed to color.
Note: Notifier signal for property borderColor.
QBrush QAreaSeries::brush() const
Returns the brush used to draw line for this series.
See also setBrush().
[signal]
void QAreaSeries::clicked(const QPointF &point)
Signal is emitted when user clicks the point on area chart. The point is the point where the press was triggered.
See also pressed, released, and doubleClicked.
[signal]
void QAreaSeries::colorChanged(QColor color)
Signal is emitted when the fill (brush) color has changed to color.
Note: Notifier signal for property color.

void QAreaSeries::hovered(const QPointF &point, bool state)
This signal is emitted when user has hovered over or away from the series. point shows the origin (coordinate) of the hover event. state is true when user has hovered over the series and false when hover has moved away from the series.
