Detailed Description

A plot class representing a range of values in one coordinate, such as typically used to show errors. A range plot can show bars (error bars), or an area fill, or both.

See also: See Range Plot for a list of animatable properties.

Method Documentation

◆ initWithFrame:

- (nonnull instancetype) initWithFrame: (CGRect) newFrame

implementation

Initializes a newly allocated CPTRangePlot object with the provided frame rectangle.

This is the designated initializer. The initialized layer will have the following properties:

barLineStyle = default line style
fillDirection = CPTRangePlotFillHorizontal
areaFill = nil
areaBorderLineStyle = nil
barWidth = 0.0
gapHeight = 0.0
gapWidth = 0.0
labelField = CPTRangePlotFieldX

Parameters

newFrame The frame rectangle.

Returns: The initialized CPTRangePlot object.

Reimplemented from CPTPlot.

◆ pointingDeviceDownEvent:atPoint:

- (BOOL) pointingDeviceDownEvent:	(nonnull CPTNativeEvent *)	event
atPoint:	(CGPoint)	interactionPoint

implementation

Informs the receiver that the user has started touching the screen.

If this plot has a delegate that responds to the -rangePlot:rangeTouchDownAtRecordIndex: or -rangePlot:rangeTouchDownAtRecordIndex:withEvent: methods, the interactionPoint is compared with each bar in index order. The delegate method will be called and this method returns YES for the first index where the interactionPoint is inside a bar. This method returns NO if the interactionPoint is outside all of the bars.

Parameters

event	The OS event.
interactionPoint	The coordinates of the interaction.

Returns: Whether the event was handled or not.

Reimplemented from CPTPlot.

◆ pointingDeviceUpEvent:atPoint:

- (BOOL) pointingDeviceUpEvent:	(nonnull CPTNativeEvent *)	event
atPoint:	(CGPoint)	interactionPoint

implementation

Informs the receiver that the user has ended touching the screen.

If this plot has a delegate that responds to the -rangePlot:rangeTouchUpAtRecordIndex: and/or -rangePlot:rangeTouchUpAtRecordIndex:withEvent: methods, the interactionPoint is compared with each bar in index order. The delegate method will be called and this method returns YES for the first index where the interactionPoint is inside a bar. This method returns NO if the interactionPoint is outside all of the bars.

If the bar being released is the same as the one that was pressed (see -pointingDeviceDownEvent:atPoint: ), if the delegate responds to the -rangePlot:rangeWasSelectedAtRecordIndex: and/or -rangePlot:rangeWasSelectedAtRecordIndex:withEvent: methods, these will be called.

Parameters

event	The OS event.
interactionPoint	The coordinates of the interaction.

Returns: Whether the event was handled or not.

Reimplemented from CPTPlot.

◆ reloadBarLineStyles

- (void) reloadBarLineStyles

Reload all bar line styles from the data source immediately.

◆ reloadBarLineStylesInIndexRange:

- (void) reloadBarLineStylesInIndexRange: (NSRange) indexRange

Reload bar line styles in the given index range from the data source immediately.

Parameters

indexRange The index range to load.

◆ reloadBarWidths

- (void) reloadBarWidths

Reload all bar widths from the data source immediately.

◆ reloadBarWidthsInIndexRange:

- (void) reloadBarWidthsInIndexRange: (NSRange) indexRange

Reload bar widths in the given index range from the data source immediately.

Parameters

indexRange The index range to load.

Property Documentation

◆ areaBorderLineStyle

- (CPTLineStyle *) areaBorderLineStyle

readwritenonatomiccopy

The line style of the border line around the area fill. Set to nil to have no border line. Default is nil.

◆ areaFill

- (CPTFill *) areaFill

readwritenonatomiccopy

The fill used to render the area. Set to nil to have no fill. Default is nil.

◆ barLineStyle

- (CPTLineStyle *) barLineStyle

readwritenonatomiccopy

The line style of the range bars. Set to nil to have no bars. Default is a black line style.

◆ fillDirection

- (CPTRangePlotFillDirection) fillDirection

readwritenonatomicassign

Fill the range in a horizontal or vertical direction. Default is CPTRangePlotFillHorizontal.
