The PlotView
class extends QGraphicsView
to add two
new features, from the user perspective. First, it automates
rescaling when the widget is resized. There are three rescale
modes: geometry
, transform
and none
:
geometry
Most similar to how base R graphics devices behave: the geometry of the figure is fixed to the geometry of the view. This mode is often convenient but really only works if there is only a single view for each scene.
transform
Adjusts the view transform so that the visible region of the scene does not change due to size changes. This is most similar to the behavior of GGobi and supports multiple views of the same scene. The downside is that the layout is not activated, so it cannot adapt to make better use of the available space. It works best with graphics that overlay guides on the plot, rather than position them adjacent to the plot in a layout.
none
No rescaling is performed; when the size changes, more or less of the plot is shown. This is probably the most common mode in zoomable user interfaces.
The other feature is the overlay scene: a separate scene that is
fixed to the geometry of the viewport. It is always shown over the
primary scene and it is stationary across transformations
and scrolling of the viewport. This is useful for overlaying
guides on a plot in a fixed position, like the axes in GGobi. Call
the overlay
method on a plot view instance to obtain the
overlay scene and manipulate it directly.
