2D API

The 2D API is currently made of of two levels, a concreate class called vtk2DPainter that is called by the paint functions of components operating within the 2D API, and a vtk2DPaintDevice which is called by the vtk2DPainter to actually draw to a context. The vtk2DPainter contains a pointer to the derived class of the vtk2DPaintDevice to do low level painting. This is the class that must be implemented for a new backend to be supported. The vtk2DPainter builds up more complex 2D constructs on top of the basic constructs implemented in the device.

2D API

The class relationship diagram is shown above. The headers for the two classes look as follows.

<source lang="cpp"> class VTK_CHARTS_EXPORT vtk2DPainter : public vtkObject { public:

 vtkTypeRevisionMacro(vtk2DPainter, vtkObject);
 virtual void PrintSelf(ostream &os, vtkIndent indent);
 static vtk2DPainter *New();
 
 bool Begin(vtk2DPaintDevice *device);
 bool End();
 // Line drawing functions
 void DrawLine(float x1, float y1, float x2, float y2);
 void DrawLine(vtkPoints2D *points);
 void DrawPoly(float *x, float *y, int n);
 void DrawPoly(vtkPoints2D *points);
 void DrawRectangle(float x, float y, float width, float height);
 void DrawRectangle(float *p);
 void DrawRectangle(vtkPoints2D *points);
 // Point drawing functions
 void DrawPoint(float x, float y);
 void DrawPoints(float *x, float *y, int n);
 void DrawPoints(vtkPoints2D *points);
 // Manage the state of the painter
 void SetColor(int r, int g, int b, int a);
 void SetPointSize(float size);
 void SetLineWidth(float width);
