DataPlot::GetModifiers

Description

Get modifiers.

Syntax

int GetModifiers( vector<int> & vnDesigs, vector<string> & saNames, DWORD dwCntrl = 0 )

Parameters

vnDesigs
[output]the property for which the modifier is specified:
COLDESIG_SIZE, symbol size
COLDESIG_COLOR, symbol color from a colormap
COLDESIG_VECTOR_ANGLE, vector plot angle column
COLDESIG_VECTOR_MAGNITUDE, vector plot magnitude column
COLDESIG_VECTOR_XEND, flow vector x-coordinate of the arrow end
COLDESIG_VECTOR_XEND, flow vector y-coordinate of the arrow end
COLDESIG_PLOTLABEL_FORM, label
see PlotDesignationEx in OC_const.h for more options.
saNames
[output]range names of the columns to be used as the modifier from which the dataplot will draw values for the modified property.
dwCntrl
[input]
enum
{
        GET_MODI_ONLY_COLORMAP  = 0x00000001, //only get colormap columns
};

Return

0 if successfully get the modifiers

Examples

EX1

// assum a worksheet has 3 columns
// make a scatter plot with first 2 columns 
// and use the 3rd column as plot label
void DataPlot_GetModifiers_ex()
{
        Worksheet wks = Project.ActiveLayer();
        if(!wks)
                return;
        Column col(wks, 2);
        if(!col)
                return;
        
        DataRange dr;   
        dr.Add(wks, 0, "X");
        dr.Add(wks, 1, "Y");
        
        GraphPage gp;
        gp.Create("Origin");
        GraphLayer gl = gp.Layers();        
        gl.AddPlot(dr, IDM_PLOT_SCATTER);
        gl.Rescale();
        
        DataPlot dp = gl.DataPlots(0); 
        if(!dp)
                return;
        dp.SetModifier(COLDESIG_PLOTLABEL_FORM, col);
        
        vector<int> vnDesigs;
        vector<string> saNames;
        dp.GetModifiers(vnDesigs, saNames);
        
        vector<uint> vecIndex;
        if(vnDesigs.Find(vecIndex, COLDESIG_PLOTLABEL_FORM) > 0) 
        {
                printf("label form = %s\n", saNames[ vecIndex[0] ]);
        }
}
