Detailed Description

This type enables developers to render a scatter graph node in 3D with Qt Quick.

You will need to import Qt Graphs module to use this type:

import QtGraphs

After that you can use Scatter3DNode in your qml files:

import QtQuick
import QtGraphs

View3D {
    width: 640
    height: 480

    Scatter3DNode {
        width: parent.width
        height: parent.height
        Scatter3DSeries {
            ItemModelScatterDataProxy {
                itemModel: dataModel
                // Mapping model roles to scatter series item coordinates.
                xPosRole: "xPos"
                yPosRole: "yPos"
                zPosRole: "zPos"
            }
        }
    }

    ListModel {
        id: dataModel
        ListElement{ xPos: "2.754"; yPos: "1.455"; zPos: "3.362"; }
        ListElement{ xPos: "3.164"; yPos: "2.022"; zPos: "4.348"; }
        ListElement{ xPos: "4.564"; yPos: "1.865"; zPos: "1.346"; }
        ListElement{ xPos: "1.068"; yPos: "1.224"; zPos: "2.983"; }
        ListElement{ xPos: "2.323"; yPos: "2.502"; zPos: "3.133"; }
    }
}

Property Documentation

aspectRatio : real

The ratio of the graph scaling between the longest axis on the horizontal plane and the y-axis. Defaults to 2.0.

See also horizontalAspectRatio.

axisX : Value3DAxis

The active x-axis.

If an axis is not given, a temporary default axis with no labels and an automatically adjusting range is created. This temporary axis is destroyed if another axis is explicitly set to the same orientation.

axisY : Value3DAxis

The active y-axis.

If an axis is not given, a temporary default axis with no labels and an automatically adjusting range is created. This temporary axis is destroyed if another axis is explicitly set to the same orientation.

axisZ : Value3DAxis

The active z-axis.

If an axis is not given, a temporary default axis with no labels and an automatically adjusting range is created. This temporary axis is destroyed if another axis is explicitly set to the same orientation.

customItemList : list<Custom3DItem>

The list of Custom3DItem items added to the graph. The graph takes ownership of the added items.

gridLineType : enumeration

Defines whether the grid lines type is Graphs3D.GridLineType.Shader or Graphs3D.GridLineType.Geometry.

This value affects all grid lines.

See also Graphs3D.GridLineType.

horizontalAspectRatio : real

The ratio of the graph scaling between the x-axis and z-axis. The value of 0.0 indicates automatic scaling according to axis ranges. Defaults to 0.0.

See also aspectRatio, polar, Bars3DNode::barThickness, and Bars3DNode::barSpacing.

labelMargin : real

This property specifies the margin for the placement of the axis labels.

Negative values place the labels inside the plot-area while positive values place them outside the plot-area. Label automatic rotation is disabled when the value is negative. Defaults to 0.1

See also QAbstract3DAxis::labelAutoAngle.

locale : locale

Sets the locale used for formatting various numeric labels. Defaults to the "C" locale.

See also Value3DAxis::labelFormat.

margin : real

The absolute value used for the space left between the edge of the plottable graph area and the edge of the graph background.

If the margin value is negative, the margins are determined automatically and can vary according to the size of the items in the series and the type of the graph. The value is interpreted as a fraction of the y-axis range if the graph aspect ratios have not been changed from the default values. Defaults to -1.0.

optimizationHint : enumeration

Specifies whether the default or legacy mode is used for rendering optimization.

The default mode uses instanced rendering, and provides the full feature set at the best level of performance on most systems. Legacy mode renders all items in the graph individually, without instancing. Use it only if the default mode does not work, that is, if the target system does not support instancing. Defaults to Default.

See also Abstract3DSeries::mesh and Graphs3D.OptimizationHint.

polar : bool

If true, the horizontal axes are changed into polar axes. The x-axis becomes the angular axis and the z-axis becomes the radial axis. Polar mode is not available for bar graphs.

Defaults to false.

See also radialLabelOffset.

queriedGraphPosition : vector3d [read-only]

This read-only property contains the latest graph position values along each axis queried using Scene3D::graphPositionQuery. The values are normalized to range [-1, 1]. If the queried position was outside the graph bounds, the values will not reflect the real position, but will instead be some undefined position outside the range [-1, 1]. The value will be undefined until a query is made.

There is no single correct 3D coordinate to match a particular screen position, so to be consistent, the queries are always done against the inner sides of an invisible box surrounding the graph.

See also Scene3D::graphPositionQuery.

radialLabelOffset : real

This property specifies the normalized horizontal offset for the axis labels of the radial polar axis. The value 0.0 indicates that the labels should be drawn next to the 0-angle angular axis grid line. The value 1.0 indicates that the labels are drawn in their usual place at the edge of the graph background. This property is ignored if the polar property value is false. Defaults to 1.0.

See also polar.

selectedElement : enumeration [read-only]

The element selected in the graph.

This property can be used to query the selected element type. The type is valid until a new selection is made in the graph and the selectedElementChanged signal is emitted.

The signal can be used for example for implementing customized input handling, as demonstrated by the Axis Handling example.

See also selectedLabelIndex(), selectedAxis(), selectedCustomItemIndex(), selectedCustomItem(), Bars3DNode::selectedSeries, Scatter3DNode::selectedSeries, Scene3D::selectionQueryPosition, and Graphs3D.ElementType.

selectedSeries : Scatter3DSeries [read-only]

The selected series or null.

selectionMode : enumeration

The active selection mode in the graph. One of the Graphs3D.SelectionFlag enum values.

seriesList : list<Scatter3DSeries> [default]

This property holds the series of the graph. By default, this property contains an empty list. To set the series, either use the addSeries() method or define them as children of the graph.

theme : GraphsTheme

The active theme of the graph.

See also GraphsTheme.

Signal Documentation

axisXChanged(Value3DAxis axis)

This signal is emitted when axisX changes to axis.

axisYChanged(Value3DAxis axis)

This signal is emitted when axisY changes to axis.

axisZChanged(Value3DAxis axis)

This signal is emitted when axisZ changes to axis.

selectedSeriesChanged(Scatter3DSeries series)

This signal is emitted when selectedSeries changes to series.

Method Documentation

qsizetype addCustomItem(Custom3DItem item)

Adds a Custom3DItem item to the graph. Graph takes ownership of the added item.

Returns the index to the added item if add was successful, -1 if trying to add a null item, and the index of the item if trying to add an already added item.

See also removeCustomItems(), removeCustomItem(), and removeCustomItemAt().

void addSeries(Scatter3DSeries series)

Adds the series to the graph. A graph can contain multiple series, but has only one set of axes. If the newly added series has specified a selected item, it will be highlighted and any existing selection will be cleared. Only one added series can have an active selection.

See also GraphsNode::hasSeries().

void clearSelection()

Clears selection from all attached series.

void doPicking(QPoint point)

Performs picking using view coordinates from point on the elements of the graph, selecting the first item hit. Default input handling performs this upon receiving the onTapped event.

See also selectedElement.

void doRayPicking(QVector3D origin, QVector3D direction)

Performs picking starting from origin and in direction on the elements of the graph, selecting the first item hit.

See also selectedElement.

bool hasSeries(Abstract3DSeries series)

Returns whether the series has already been added to the graph.

void releaseCustomItem(Custom3DItem item)

Gets ownership of item back and removes the item from the graph.

See also Custom3DItem::textureFile.

void removeCustomItem(Custom3DItem item)

Removes the custom item. Deletes the resources allocated to it.

void removeCustomItemAt(vector3d position)

Removes all custom items at position. Deletes the resources allocated to them.

void removeCustomItems()

Removes all custom items. Deletes the resources allocated to them.

void removeSeries(Scatter3DSeries series)

Remove the series from the graph.

See also GraphsNode::hasSeries().

Abstract3DAxis selectedAxis()

Can be used to get the selected axis after receiving selectedElementChanged signal with any label type. Selection is valid until the next selectedElementChanged signal.

Returns the selected axis, or null.

See also selectedElement.

Custom3DItem selectedCustomItem()

Can be used to get the selected custom item after receiving selectedElementChanged signal with ElementType.CustomItem type. Ownership of the item remains with the graph. Selection is valid until the next selectedElementChanged signal.

Returns the selected custom item, or null.

See also selectedElement.

qsizetype selectedCustomItemIndex()

Can be used to query the index of the selected custom item after receiving selectedElementChanged signal with ElementType.CustomItem type. Selection is valid until the next selectedElementChanged signal.

Returns the index of the selected custom item, or -1.

See also selectedElement.

int selectedLabelIndex()

Can be used to query the index of the selected label after receiving selectedElementChanged signal with any label type. Selection is valid until the next selectedElementChanged signal.

Returns the index of the selected label, or -1.

See also selectedElement.
