Detailed Description

Q3DTheme class provides a visual style for graphs.

Specifies visual properties that affect the whole graph. There are several built-in themes that can be used as is or modified freely.

The following properties can be overridden by using QAbstract3DSeries properties to set them explicitly in the series: baseColors, baseGradients, and colorStyle.

Themes can be created from scratch using the ThemeUserDefined enum value. Creating a theme using the default constructor produces a new user-defined theme.

Default Theme

The following table lists the properties controlled by themes and the default values for ThemeUserDefined.

Usage Examples

Creating a built-in theme without any modifications:

Q3DTheme *theme = new Q3DTheme(Q3DTheme::ThemeQt);

Creating a built-in theme and modifying some properties:

Q3DTheme *theme = new Q3DTheme(Q3DTheme::ThemeQt);
theme->setBackgroundEnabled(false);
theme->setLabelBackgroundEnabled(false);

Creating a user-defined theme:

Q3DTheme *theme = new Q3DTheme();
theme->setAmbientLightStrength(0.3f);
theme->setBackgroundColor(QColor(QRgb(0x99ca53)));
theme->setBackgroundEnabled(true);
theme->setBaseColor(QColor(QRgb(0x209fdf)));
theme->setColorStyle(Q3DTheme::ColorStyleUniform);
theme->setFont(QFont(QStringLiteral("Impact"), 35));
theme->setGridEnabled(true);
theme->setGridLineColor(QColor(QRgb(0x99ca53)));
theme->setHighlightLightStrength(7.0f);
theme->setLabelBackgroundColor(QColor(0xf6, 0xa6, 0x25, 0xa0));
theme->setLabelBackgroundEnabled(true);
theme->setLabelBorderEnabled(true);
theme->setLabelTextColor(QColor(QRgb(0x404044)));
theme->setLightColor(Qt::white);
theme->setLightStrength(6.0f);
theme->setMultiHighlightColor(QColor(QRgb(0x6d5fd5)));
theme->setSingleHighlightColor(QColor(QRgb(0xf6a625)));
theme->setWindowColor(QColor(QRgb(0xffffff)));

Creating a built-in theme and modifying some properties after it has been set:

Q3DBars *graph = new Q3DBars();
graph->activeTheme()->setType(Q3DTheme::ThemePrimaryColors);
graph->activeTheme()->setBaseColor(Qt::red);
graph->activeTheme()->setSingleHighlightColor(Qt::yellow);

Member Type Documentation

enum Q3DTheme::ColorStyle

Color styles.

ConstantValueDescription
Q3DTheme::ColorStyleUniform0Objects are rendered in a single color. The color used is specified in baseColors, singleHighlightColor and multiHighlightColor properties.
Q3DTheme::ColorStyleObjectGradient1Objects are colored using a full gradient for each object regardless of object height. The gradient used is specified in baseGradients, singleHighlightGradient and multiHighlightGradient properties.
Q3DTheme::ColorStyleRangeGradient2Objects are colored using a portion of the full gradient determined by the object's height and its position on the Y-axis. The gradient used is specified in baseGradients, singleHighlightGradient and multiHighlightGradient properties.

enum Q3DTheme::Theme

ambientLightStrength : float

This property holds the ambient light strength for the whole graph.

This value determines how evenly and brightly the colors are shown throughout the graph regardless of the light position.

The value must be between 0.0f and 1.0f.

Access functions:

float ambientLightStrength() const
void setAmbientLightStrength(float strength)

This property holds the list of base gradients to be used for all the objects in the graph, series by series.

If there are more series than gradients, the gradient list wraps and starts again with the first gradient in the list

Has no immediate effect if colorStyle is ColorStyleUniform.

This value can be overridden by setting the baseGradient explicitly in the series.

Access functions:

QList<QLinearGradient> baseGradients() const
