Method Details
-
getPlotBounds
Rectangle getPlotBounds()Returns the rectangle within which all of the plot data will appear. This includes anything that might get drawn by a plot layer, but does not necessarily include axis labels etc.- Returns:
- plot data area bounds
-
getPlotInsets
Returns the insets that this surface would like to reserve outside the plot bounds. This is space outside the rectangle returned bygetPlotBounds()
to be used for axis labels etc.If the
withScroll
parameter is set, then an attempt will be made to return insets that will not alter if the current plot is scrolled around a moderate amount. For a one-time plot that's not important, but for an interactive plot it prevents the actual plot position jumping around to accommodate more or less space on the axes according to exactly where ticks happen to fall on the axes.This method is supposed to return only the space that may actually be touched by the plot. The calling code may wish to apply additional padding on top of this for cosmetic reasons.
- Parameters:
withScroll
- true to reserve space for nicer scrolling- Returns:
- plot data area insets
-
paintBackground
Paints the plot surface background. Anything that appears within the plot bounds underneath the data markings must go here.- Parameters:
g
- graphics context
-
paintForeground
Paints the plot surface foreground. Anything that appears on top of the data markings or outside the plot bounds must go here. This may include axes.- Parameters:
g
- graphics context
-
getDataDimCount
int getDataDimCount()Returns the dimensionality of the data space used by this plot surface.- Returns:
- number of elements in data space coordinate array
-
dataToGraphics
Converts a data space position to a graphics position. IfvisibleOnly
is true, then if the return value is true, the exit value ofgPos
is guaranteed to be within the plot bounds of this surface.If
visibleOnly
is false, there are no guarantees about the exit value ofgPos
, and its coordinates could be infinite or NaN. In this case you might want to perform additional checking, for instance with the utility methodsPlotUtil.isPointFinite
orisPointReal
.- Parameters:
dataPos
- dataDimCount-element array containing data space coordinatesvisibleOnly
- if true, then the conversion will only succeed when the result falls within the plot bounds of this surfacegPos
- point object into which the graphics position will be written on success- Returns:
- true iff the conversion succeeds
-
dataToGraphicsOffset
boolean dataToGraphicsOffset(double[] dataPos0, Point2D.Double gpos0, double[] dataPos1, boolean visibleOnly, Point2D.Double gPos1) Converts an offset data space position to a graphics position. Context is given in the form of an existing converted nearby point (both data and graphics positions).This (somewhat hacky) method is required for surfaces in which a data position may map to more than one position in graphics space, for instance sky surfaces with discontinuous longitude. The result does not need to be the same as the result of calling
dataToGraphics(double[], boolean, java.awt.geom.Point2D.Double)
, and is not required to be a legal graphics position, but it must make visual sense, for instance when plotting error bars. The semantics of a "nearby point" is not very well defined. There are probably situations in which calling this will not give the result that's wanted, but they will probably be rare.- Parameters:
dataPos0
- context position in data spacegpos0
- context position in graphics space (result of calling dataToGraphics on dpos0)dataPos1
- query position in data spacevisibleOnly
- if true, the call only succeeds if the result is within the plot bounds of this surfacegPos1
- point object to which the graphics position of dpos1 will be written on success- Returns:
- true for success, false for no result
-
graphicsToData
Attempts to turn a graphics position into a data position. This is not always trivial, for instance in a 3D plot one graphics position maps to a line of data positions. ThedposIt
argument can optionally be supplied to cope with such instances. If a data pos cannot be determined, null is returned. IfdposIt
is absent, the method will run quickly. If it's present, it may or may not run slowly.- Parameters:
gPos
- graphics pointdposSupplier
- iterable over dataDimCount-element arrays representing all the data space positions plotted, or null- Returns:
- dataDimCount-element array giving data space position for
gPos
, or null if it cannot be determined
-
isContinuousLine
boolean isContinuousLine(double[] dataPos0, double[] dataPos1) Indicates whether a line in graphics space between two given data space positions is continuous.This is not very well-defined, but if drawing a line in graphics coordinates between the graphics coordinates corresponding to the two data coordinates is likely to do something badly wrong, this method should return false. It is intended to deal with the case where a short offset in data coordinates would lead to a line going the wrong way round the sky when it crosses the longitude=+/-PI boundary in an Aitoff projection.
- Parameters:
dataPos0
- first dataDimCount-element array containing data space coordinatesdataPos1
- second dataDimCount-element array containing data space coordinates- Returns:
- true if drawing a graphics line between the two positions should be OK
-
formatPosition
Formats the given data space position as a coordinate string. If possible the returned string should have the same length and formatting over the whole visible plot surface, so that the representation doesn't jump around when the cursor is moved.- Parameters:
dataPos
- dataDimCount-element array giving data space position- Returns:
- human-readable string representing position
-
getCaptioner
Captioner getCaptioner()Returns a captioner suitable for drawing general purpose labels annotating the plot.- Returns:
- captioner
-
