## Detailed Description

QwtPlotRescaler takes care of fixed aspect ratios for plot scales.

QwtPlotRescaler autoadjusts the axes of a QwtPlot according to fixed aspect ratios.

## Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtPlotRescaler::ExpandingDirection

When rescalePolicy() is set to Expanding its direction depends on ExpandingDirection

Enumerator:

  ExpandUp | The upper limit of the scale is adjusted.
  ExpandDown | The lower limit of the scale is adjusted.
  ExpandBoth | Both limits of the scale are adjusted.

enum QwtPlotRescaler::RescalePolicy

The rescale policy defines how to rescale the reference axis and their depending axes.

See also:
  ExpandingDirection, setIntervalHint()

Enumerator:

  Fixed | The interval of the reference axis remains unchanged, when the geometry of the canvas changes. All other axes will be adjusted according to their aspect ratio.
  Expanding | The interval of the reference axis will be shrinked/expanded, when the geometry of the canvas changes. All other axes will be adjusted according to their aspect ratio. The interval, that is represented by one pixel is fixed.
  Fitting | The intervals of the axes are calculated, so that all axes include their interval hint.
