Detailed Description

template<class T>
class casa::LatticePADMContour< T >

Class to draw a single contour map of a slice from an AIPS++ Lattice.

Internal

Prerequisite

• LatticeAsContour

Etymology

The purpose of this class is to draw "contour" maps of data that is "lattice"-based. The "PADM" refers to PrincipalAxesDisplayMethod, meaning that one or more instances of this class are used to actually draw slices of a Lattice along its main axes.

Synopsis

This is a helper class for the LatticeAsContour class. One or more instances of this class are created by a single LatticeAsContour object, each being responsible for drawing a different slice of the data.

Example

This class should only be used by the LatticeAsContour class to setup a number of views of an AIPS++ Image or Array. As such, this example simply outlines how this class is used by LatticeAsContour, in, for example, a support function for a constructor:

    template <class T>
    void LatticeAsContour<T>::setupElements(IPosition fixedPos) {
      if (nPixelAxes > 2) {
        nImages = dataLattice()->shape()(zAxisNum);
        DDelement.resize(nImages);
        for (uInt index = 0; index < nImages; index++) {
          fixedPos(zAxisNum) = index;
          DDelement[index] = (LatticePADisplayMethod<T> *)new 
          LatticePADMContour<T>(dataLattice(), xAxisNum, yAxisNum,
                               zAxisNum, fixedPos, this);
        }
      } else {
        nImages = 1;
        DDelement.resize(nImages);
        DDelement[0] = (LatticePADisplayMethod<T> *)new
          LatticePADMContour<T>(dataLattice(), xAxisNum, yAxisNum, this);
      }
    }

Motivation

Displaying 2-dimensional slices of a lattice-based data volume is a standard display requirement for astronomical data visualization and presentation.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class T >

casa::LatticePADMContour< T >::LatticePADMContour	(	const uInt	xAxis,
		const uInt	yAxis,
		const uInt	mAxis,
		const IPosition	fixedPos,
		LatticeAsContour< T > *	arDat
	)

Constructors: >2d and 2d.

xAxis and yAxis specify which axis in the Lattice (0-based) should be mapped to X and Y on the display device: ie. 2-d slices of the data to be displayed have these as axes. mAxis specifies the "movie" axis, which is the axis along which different slices are taken. fixedPos is an IPosition having the same length as the number of dimensions in the array, and indicates the fixed axis values for axes in the data that are not specified as xAxis or yAxis: indeed, fixedPos(mAxis) indicates which pixel value along the movie axis that this particular object looks after.

Member Function Documentation

template<class T >

virtual uInt casa::LatticePADMContour< T >::dataDrawSelf	(	WorldCanvas *	wCanvas,
		const Vector< Double > &	blc,
		const Vector< Double > &	trc,
		const IPosition &	start,
		const IPosition &	shape,
		const IPosition &	stride,
		const Bool	usePixelEdges = False
	)		[virtual]

Actually draw on the display device.

The WorldCanvasHolder will tell the LatticeAsRaster that it should now draw, which will in turn determine which of its one or more LatticePADMRaster objects should draw by matching the movie value on the WorldCanvas. The contour is drawn from world coordinate blc to trc.

Implements casa::PrincipalAxesDM.
