LogLinPlot class
The LogLinPlot class draws immediate mode lines and
may be used to map overlay plots into a log or linear coordinate
space.
Synopsis
Header file: ncarg/hlu/LogLinPlot.h
Class name: logLinPlotClass
Class pointer: NhllogLinPlotClass
Fortran class pointer: NHLFLOGLINPLOTCLASS
Superclass: Transform
Composite classes: LogLinTransformation, PlotManager
Resources
Local resources
The LogLinPlot object has no local resources.
Composite resources
LogLinTransformation resources
You can access all LogLinTransformation resources. These resources
define the extent and direction of the data coordinates, and whether each
axis is to use a logarithmic or linear coordinate system.
PlotManager resources
Assuming tfPlotManagerOn is True when a
LogLinPlot object is created, you can access all
PlotManager resources. You can also access resources for
any of the PlotManager's composite
class members. However, the PlotManager object modifies
the access and behavior of some of the resources belonging to these
objects, as follows:
Superclass resources
You can access all resources defined by the superclasses of the
LogLinPlot object class, including:
Description
Unlike most Transform
subclasses, LogLinPlot has no specialized plot
elements and no Draw method of its own. Its primary
function is to act as a base plot over
which other plot
objects may be overlaid in order to transform their data space
into a log/linear coordinate space. Like other members of the
Transform class, LogLinPlot can also
function as a "canvas" for drawing graphics
primitives, either in data space or in NDC space.
You can transform a plot object into log/linear coordinate space by
overlaying it on a loglinplot. The log/linear
coordinate space may encompass the data space of any number of
overlaid plot objects with partially or completely disjoint data
coordinate extents. You set the extent and direction of the data
coordinate space, as well as whether one or both axes should use a
logarithmic coordinate system, using the resources of the LogLinTransformation object belonging to the LogLinPlot.
LogLinPlot allows unrestricted access to all the
resources of its LogLinTransformation object.
Assuming tfPlotManagerOn is
True when you create a LogLinPlot object, the
LogLinPlot object has the same plot management
capabilities as any other plot object. The
LogLinPlot object does not intercept any resources
belonging to the PlotManager object or the composite
class members of the PlotManager. Therefore, you
access these resources just as described for the PlotManager
object itself.
Support functions
The LogLinPlot object does not define any support
functions, but inherits all the support functions available to its
superclasses.
